The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of rehabilitation in patients with disk displacement of the TMJ. A total of 327 subjects with Temporo Mandibular Disorders underwent stomathognatic physiotherapy. (2) Methods: Based on the results obtained by a manual functional analysis, 35 patients who were identified with articular disk locking (disk displacement without reduction) were included in the study. The study group (N = 35) was subjected to passive repositioning of the articular disk, reposition splints, and physiotherapy. The patient\u2019s TMJs were then examined before the therapy, immediately after the therapy, and during the follow-up visit 3\u20136 weeks after the therapy. The Diagnostic Criteria for the Most Common Intra-articular Temporomandibular Disorders was used to evaluate the effects of rehabilitation on the patients\u2019 range of motions and the Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS). For the statistical analysis, Pearson\u2019s r correlation coefficient test and Wilcoxon signed-rank test were used. (3) Results: The results showed a significant improvement in the range of motion of the mandible movements. The level of improvement was dependent on the time from the incident until undergoing rehabilitation. (4) Conclusions: The stomatognathic physiotherapy applied increased the range of motion of the mandible and reduced pain levels to the expected range.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/jcm13030902","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,2,6]],"date-time":"2024-02-06T12:38:24Z","timestamp":1707223104000},"page":"902","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Effectiveness of Rehabilitation for Disk Displacement of the Temporomandibular Joint\u2014A Cross-Sectional Study"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"13","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6026-0010","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ma\u0142gorzata","family":"Kulesa-Mrowiecka","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Rehabilitation in Internal Diseases, Faculty of Health Sciences, Jagiellonian University Medical College, 31-126 Krakow, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3534-4781","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Patryk","family":"Ci\u0119\u017carek","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Health Science, Institute of Physiotherapy, Jagiellonian University Medical College, 31-126 Krakow, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ma\u0142gorzata","family":"Pihut","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Prosthodontic Department, Faculty of Medicine, Institute of Dentistry, Jagiellonian University Medical College, 31-126 Krakow, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,2,4]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"472","DOI":"10.3390\/medicina56090472","article-title":"Diagnostic of Temporomandibular Disorders and Other Facial Pain Conditions\u2014Narrative Review and Personal Experience","volume":"56","author":"Pihut","year":"2020","journal-title":"Medicina"},{"key":"ref_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"210","DOI":"10.11607\/ofph.1661","article-title":"The Effectiveness of Physiotherapy in the Management of Temporomandibular Disorders: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis","volume":"30","author":"Peleteiro","year":"2016","journal-title":"J.
