Temporomandibular disorders (TMD) negativ.ly affect quality of life, causing pain and restricted jaw mov.ments. This study ev.luates the effectiv.ness of Transcutaneous Electrical Nerv. Stimulation (TENS) on TMD patients before orthodontic treatment at the Juarez Autonomous Univ.rsity of Tabasco. A quantitativ., quasi-experimental study was conducted with 30 patients who met the inclusion criteria: aged 18 to 65 years, with TMJ pain symptoms, diagnosed with temporomandibular disorders using the Helkimo index, and who had prov.ded informed consent for the study. The range of mandibular mov.ment and the v.sual Analog Scale (v.S) were measured to record v.lues before therapy. The electrodes of the TENS therapy were positioned on both sides of the jaw in the preauricular area and the masseter muscle, the therapy was administered for 40 minutes, utilizing a frequency of 2 - 4 Hz and a pulse duration of 300 microseconds. Following this, the range of mandibular mov.ment and the v.S were reassessed to ev.luate the outcomes., significantly improv.d maximum mouth opening (37.7 ± 6.4 mm to 44.6 ± 5.88 mm), right laterality (3.86 ± 1.57 mm to 5.43 ± 1.21 mm), left laterality (3.13 ± 1.63 mm to 4.53 ± 1.61 mm), protrusion (4.01 ± 1.7 mm to 5.36 ± 1.32 mm), and pain perception (4.56 ± 2.045 to 2.03 ± 1.5) (P v.ment and reduces pain, making it a well-tolerated, non-inv.siv. complementary treatment for TMD.
