Hyaluronic acid
DrugComparative study between Hyalgan and Hyorth injectable products in TMJ Disorders by arthrocentesis of 2 syringes device

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
EFFICACY between injection of high versus low molecular weight hyaluronic acid in TMJ arthrocentesis
The MEASUREMENT TOOL of the study will be carried out by 2 groups the first will be injected by high molecular weight hyaluronic acid and the second wil be injected by low molecular weight hyaluronic acid Then compare between Efectevness of injection of high-molecular weight versus Low moecular weight hyaluronic acid after two-needle arthrocentesis in improving the signs and symptoms of intra-articular TMJ disorder. , 1- significantly improving the pain on scale 1-10 , and
Secondary outcomes
comparative between injection of high versus low molecular weight hyaluronic acid in TMJ arthrocentesis
The MEASUREMENT TOOL of the study will be carried out by 2 groups the first will be injected by high molecular weight hyaluronic acid and the second wil be injected by low molecular weight hyaluronic acid Then compare between Efectevness of injection of high-molecular weight versus Low moecular weight hyaluronic acid after two-needle arthrocentesis in improving the signs and symptoms of intra-articular TMJ disorder. 2-significant improvements in mouth opening range in mm by the distance between the edges of the frontal incisors with a ruler or caliper and joint noise.
