Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The CD/TDM(Temporomandibular dysfunction) symptom questionnaire will be applied to patients before starting treatment to exclude the presence of TMD( Temporomandibular dysfunction) symptoms. After 4 weeks of starting treatment, participants will again answer the CD/TDM symptom questionnaire to find out if any patients have developed TMD symptoms. Within 8 weeks, the questionnaire will be reapplied to assess whether the individual remains symptomatic or if new symptoms suggest, or if symptoms improve and new patients with symptoms suggest. It will also be evaluated which was the most prevalent symptom among patients. | — |
