Abstract

Through He-NE laser stimulation of acupuncture points, we treated and observed 50 cases of Temporomandibular Joint Dysfunction Syndrome (TMJDS). The results proved that this treatment was very effective for relieving the patient's pain. In cases which had structural disturbances and organic damage such as limitation of mouth-opening and joint clink, there was less improvement of symptoms and no relief for joint clink.
