Occlusion may change spontaneously but dental treatment or trauma in the patients with temporomandibular disorders (TMDs) may also alter occlusion. This report presents three cases displaying occlusal changes. Review of literature emphasizes the significance of TMD treatment. Conservative treatment modalities such as counseling, medication, physical therapy and splint therapy may be selected as initial treatment options. Irreversible or invasive treatment, such as orthodontic, prosthodontic, and occlusal adjustment should not be attempted early. In case there is no response to conservative treatment, joint injection, muscle injection, arthrocentesis or arthroscopic surgery might be performed.

Objectives : The purpose of this study is to investigate the clinical application of chuna for temporomandibular joint(TMJ) in nuchal pain patients with temporomandibular joint disorder(TMD). Methods : Four patients were treated by chuna for TMJ to evaluate the effect of the treatment. The patient's symptoms were assessed by visual analogue scale(VAS), neck disability index(NDI), cervical lordotic curvature. Results : In all case, the pain was reduced according to VAS, NDI. cervical lordotic curvature of three cases were improved. Conclusions : These results suggest that chuna for TMJ might be an effective method to treat nuchal pain with TMD. But, it's necessary to have more observations and experiments.

This case report describes the effectiveness of cervical chuna manipulation in the management of traumatic temporomandibular joint disorder. A 14-year-old male developed trismus after being stuck. He received cervical chuna manipulation and acupuncture. The mouth opening range was assessed to measure disability, and the visual analogue scale to measure discomfort. This was carried out at the beginning, during and at the end of treatment. After treatment, the patient's mouth opening range was improved from 10 mm to 45 mm. Also, the visual analogue scale was decreased. This case study suggests that cervical chuna manipulation can be effective for the management of traumatic temporomandibular joint disorder.
