Pilot study_Jaw Muscle Metabolic and Brain-Derived Phenotypes of Chronic TMD Pain

The goal of this study is to learn more about a new way of gathering information about a person’s jaw muscle pain – taking scans of the jaw muscles while a person bites down on a special device. It is hoped that the information learned in this study will help the study team to design a bigger study on this new way of learning about jaw muscle pain, which may lead to better, more individualized treatments for jaw muscle pain for future patients.
