TRANSCUTANEOUS ELECTRIC NERVE STIMULATION THERAPY IN TEMPOROMANDIBULAR DISORDERS- A SYSTEMATIC REVIEW

Temporomandibulardisordercharacterizes a varied group of pathologies affecting temporomandibularjoints, masticatory muscles, or both.The treatment temporomandibular disorders is major challenge because its causes and structures involved also the functioning one joint always dependent on other. Transcutaneous electric nerve stimulation non-pharmacological method pain control recently it gaining importance in temporomandibulardisorders. Hence this study was undertaken to analyze effect transcutaneous due compare efficacy over other treatments available for same.Electronic search articles published various journals were through engines from 2020-2022. 9 randomized trials therapy performed disorder patients selected analysis. The compared with conventional [muscle relaxant+ analgesic], low level laser therapy,Microcurrent Nerve Stimulation therapy, Physiotherapy, Placebo therapy.Results conclude that superior all modalities included disorders. Maximum reduction obtained combination muscle relaxant, hot fermentation, soft diet.Transcutaneous along medication proved be highly effective treating
