[PMID: 38143160 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcms.2023.11.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/20/2023] [Revised: 10/09/2023] [Accepted: 11/23/2023] [Indexed: 12/26/2023] Open
Abstract
Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) surgery accounts for a significant number of patient episodes in oral and maxillofacial surgery, and treatment effectiveness is commonly assessed using measures of pain and mouth opening. Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) enable assessment of the patient's perspective and perception of the diseases and treatment outcomes. The purpose of this review was to assess the use of PROMs in TMJ surgery. A review of 3 databases (PubMed, OVID, Trip) was carried out to assess the use of PROMs when reporting on TMJ surgical interventions. Studies were limited to the English language, involving humans and at least one surgical intervention of the TMJ. A total of 214 articles met the inclusion and exclusion criteria, of which only 28 used 18 PROMs among them. Half of these PROMs were single-question visual analogue scales or Likert scales on quality of life and disability. The Oral Health Impact Profile and the Helkimo Clinical Dysfunction Index were the second most used (n = 3). PROMs were used most in studies on internal derangement (n = 9) and in cohort study designs (n = 26), but this was not statistically significant. In the majority of research on TMJ surgery, no PROMs are used, and when one is, there is a tendency to use weaker single-question PROMs as opposed to multi-question PROMs to assess outcomes. With the increasing importance of PROMs for assessing patients' perception of treatment outcomes, further research is needed to establish valid and reproducible PROMs for TMJ surgery.

J Clin Med 2023; 12:4655. [PMID: 37510770 PMCID: PMC10380303 DOI: 10.3390/jcm12144655] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/23/2023] [Revised: 06/27/2023] [Accepted: 07/11/2023] [Indexed: 07/30/2023] Open
Abstract
This mapping review aims to identify and discuss current research directions on intracavitary temporomandibular joints (TMJs) injections. The inclusion criteria allowed studies published in the last full six years, based on patients diagnosed with temporomandibular joint disorders (TMDs), treated by TMJ intra-articular injections. Medical databases covered by the Association for Computing Machinery, Bielefeld Academic Search Engine, PubMed, and Elsevier Scopus engines were searched. The results were visualized with tables, charts, and diagrams. Of the 2712 records identified following the selection process, 152 reports were qualified for review. From January 2017, viscosupplementation with hyaluronic acid (HA) was the best-documented injectable administered into TMJ cavities. However, a significant growing trend was observed in the number of primary studies on centrifuged blood preparations administrations that surpassed the previously leading HA from 2021.

Efficacy of Intra-Articular Injection of Botulinum Toxin Type A (IncobotulinumtoxinA) in Temporomandibular Joint Osteoarthritis: A Three-Arm Controlled Trial in Rats. Toxins (Basel) 2023; 15:toxins15040261. [PMID: 37104199 PMCID: PMC10142654 DOI: 10.3390/toxins15040261] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/02/2023] [Revised: 03/27/2023] [Accepted: 03/28/2023] [Indexed: 04/05/2023] Open
Abstract
Temporomandibular disorders (TMD) are complex pathologies responsible for chronic orofacial pain. Intramuscular injection of botulinum toxin A (BoNT/A) has shown effectiveness in knee and shoulder osteoarthritis, as well as in some TMDs such as masticatory myofascial pain, but its use remains controversial. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of intra-articular BoNT/A injection in an animal model of temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis. A rat model of temporomandibular osteoarthritis was used to compare the effects of intra-articular injection of BoNT/A, placebo (saline), and hyaluronic acid (HA). Efficacy was compared by pain assessment (head withdrawal test), histological analysis, and imaging performed in each group at different time points until day 30. Compared with the rats receiving placebo, those receiving intra-articular BoNT/A and HA had a significant decrease in pain at day 14. The analgesic effect of BoNT/A was evident as early as day 7, and lasted until day 21. Histological and radiographic analyses showed decrease in joint inflammation in the BoNT/A and HA groups. The osteoarthritis histological score at day 30 was significantly lower in the BoNT/A group than in the other two groups (p = 0.016). Intra-articular injection of BoNT/A appeared to reduce pain and inflammation in experimentally induced temporomandibular osteoarthritis in rats.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Application of arthrocentesis in temporomandibular joint disorders preferred and suggested therapeutic treatment option in recent years. This study was designed to investigate and compare the effect of intra-articular injection of botulinum toxin-A (Btx-A) on pain and mouth opening after arthrocentesis in nonreduction disc displacement. MATERIALS AND METHODS This restrospective study was conducted on 30 patients with a visual analogue scale is higher than five and limited mouth opening. Patients were divided into 2 groups as conventional arthrocentesis group (group A) and intra-articular Btx-A injection following arthrocentesis group (group B). Maximum mouth openining and temporomandibular joint pain were measured in preoperative (t0) and at postoperative 1st-week (t1), 1st-month (t2) and 6th-month (t3). RESULTS When VAS scores of group A and group B were examined, no statistical difference was observed at t0 and t1 time intervals; an increased in mouth opening values and decreased VAS score values were observed in both groups in the 1st month (t2) and 6th (t3) months, mostly in group A. CONCLUSION İntra-articular injection of Btx-A following arthrocentesis can induce mouth opening and reduce the pain and dysfunction in patients with anterior disc displacement.

Abstract
Objective An evidence-based review on the safety and efficacy of botulinum toxin type-A (BoNTA) in orofacial conditions, focusing on the therapeutic applications and role of BoNTA as an adjuvant treatment.Data source and selection Data was collected using PubMed (Medline), Cochrane Library of Systematic Reviews and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials electronic databases. Having satisfied the search parameters, 32 studies for therapeutic applications and 26 for BoNTA as an adjunctive treatment were included. The quality of relevant studies was assessed using the Best Evidence Topics (BETs) Critical Appraisal Tool.Data extraction The highest level of evidence (LOE) behind BoNTA safety and efficacy was for wound healing and scar management in the orofacial surgery context, where BoNTA was presented as an adjunctive modality. Level-I evidence was controversial for temporomandibular disorders and bruxism. However, it showed promising results for painful temporomandibular disorders of myogenic origin refractory to conservative therapies, and to decrease muscle contraction intensity in sleeping bruxism. There was only one level-II study for persistent recurrent aphthous stomatitis. Data showed limited level-III evidence for orofacial pain conditions (temporomandibular joint recurrent dislocation and pain, burning mouth syndrome or atypical odontalgia), oral cancer complications, or as an adjuvant to maxillofacial and orthognathic surgeries. Benefits of BoNTA in prosthodontics had weak level-IV evidence. No evidence was found among the periodontology field.Conclusion There is growing evidence to support the safety and efficacy of BoNTA in the investigated orofacial pathological conditions, with high levels of satisfaction from the patient and clinician perspective. However, there are some inconsistencies and limited high-quality evidence available. Well-designed controlled clinical trials are necessary to evaluate long-term safety, efficacy and cost-effectiveness before BoNTA is widely adopted with irrefutable evidence-based clinical guidelines.

Abstract
This study aimed to compare the efficacy of four treatments in the management of knee osteoarthritis. We carried out a randomized clinical trial with four study arms in an outpatient Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation at a University Hospital. In total, 120 patients with knee osteoarthritis ≥50 years of age were randomly allocated to four groups. The primary outcome was knee pain in visual analog scale and the secondary outcome was the Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score. The exercise was prescribed daily for all participants throughout the study. For physical therapy (group 1), participants received superficial heat, transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation and pulsed ultrasound. We administered a single intra-articular injection of botulinum neurotoxin type A (group 2) and three injections of hyaluronic acid (group 3) or 20% dextrose (group 4) to patients in the corresponding groups. Mixed analysis of variance showed that there was statistically significant difference between the groups in pain (P < 0.001), and Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (P < 0.001). Pairwise between- and within-group comparisons showed that botulinum neurotoxin and dextrose prolotherapy were the most, and hyaluronic acid was the least efficient treatments for controlling pain and recovering function in patients. An intra-articular injection of botulinum toxin type A or dextrose prolotherapy is effective first-line treatments. In the next place stands physical therapy particularly if the patient is not willing to continue regular exercise programs. Our study was not very supportive of intra-articular injection of hyaluronic acid as an effective treatment of knee osteoarthritis.

Abstract
This study was performed to present the authors' experience with botulinum toxin therapy for salivary stenosis and salivary fistula in terms of the procedure, dosage, effectiveness, and complications. A retrospective study of all patients treated in the maxillofacial surgery department for salivary stenosis or fistula from January 2014 to September 2018 was performed. Intraglandular injections of incobotulinumtoxinA (Xeomin) were utilized. The frequency of relapse and the pain recorded before injection and at 3 months after each injection or fistula resolution were assessed. Swallowing dysfunction or any diffusion of toxin into the facial muscles was recorded. This study included 22 patients (mean age 53 years). Botulinum therapy was indicated for parotid duct stenosis in 14 patients, submandibular duct stenosis in four patients, and parotid fistula in four patients. The frequency of relapse (P = 0.0001) and pain level (P = 0.0001) decreased after botulinum therapy. The average duration of the botulinum effect was 4.50±2.00 months after the first injection. No complication was observed. Botulinum therapy with 100 IU of Xeomin proved effective at resolving salivary fistula. Botulinum therapy is an effective treatment for symptoms of salivary duct stenosis in patients for whom minimally invasive procedures have failed. Botulinum therapy can also be used for the treatment of salivary fistulas.

Abstract
In recent years, there is a growing interest in new medical applications of botulinum toxin, including pain control, osteoarthritis treatment, and wound healing. While clinical applications of botulinum toxin seem promising, existing evidence regarding the therapeutic effects is still inadequate. The aim was to assess the efficacy of a single injection of abobotulinumtoxin A into the knee joint cavity to reduce pain in elderly people. We carried out a single group clinical trial in a University Hospital. Thirty participants (24 women) more than 50 years of age with knee osteoarthritis were included. Diagnosis of osteoarthritis was based on clinical and radiologic findings. We gave a single injection containing 250 units of Dysport (= 100 units of botulinum neurotoxin type A) diluted with 5 ml of normal saline. The primary outcome measure was knee pain. The secondary outcome was the patients' opinion about their knee and associated problems measured with the Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score. The outcomes were measured at the baseline and at 4 weeks after the intervention. Within-group comparisons based on the Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Scores showed favorable results for joint pain and stiffness, sports, severity of symptoms, quality of life, and daily activities (all p-values < 0.001). Also, pain intensity, joint effusion, knee clicking and locking, and flexion-extension scores showed significant beneficial results (all p-values ≤ 0.005). We concluded that botulinum neurotoxin type A is an effective and safe initial treatment of knee osteoarthritis with clear clinical advantages. Patients' satisfaction, minimum adverse effects in addition to single-dose prescription make the toxin as a choice for the first-line therapy of osteoarthritis at least at the short-term in elderly people. The symptom relief increases the patient's compliance and willing to participate in other therapeutic programs.
