Objective:
To compare clinical therapeutic effects of acupuncture combined with magnetic therapy and simple magnetic therapy on temple-jaw joint dysfunction.
Methods:
Eighty-two cases were randomly divided into an observation group (n = 52) and a control group (n = 30). The observation group was treated with acupuncture at Xiaguan (ST 7), Jiache (ST 6), Hegu (LI 4), etc. and AL-2 low frequency electromagnetic comprehensive treatment instrument; the control group was treated with AL-2 low frequency electromagnetic comprehensive treatment instrument.
Results:
The cured and markedly effective rate of 90.4% in the observation group was significantly better than 66.7% in the control group (P < 0.01), and the total effective rate of 98.1% in the observation group was significantly better than 86.7% in the control group (P < 0.05).
Conclusion:
The therapeutic effect of acupuncture combined with magnetic therapy is significantly better than that of the simple magnetic therapy on temple-jaw joint dysfunction.
