Effects of interferential current stimulation for treatment of subjects with recurrent jaw pain.
This study evaluated the effectiveness of interferential current stimulation (ICS) to decrease recurrent jaw pain and to increase maximum vertical jaw opening. Forty subjects with either a history of recurrent jaw pain of three months' duration or of constant, chronic jaw pain that recurred within the preceding two months participated in the study. Twenty subjects received three 20-minute treat...
متن کاملDrug effects on salivary glands: dry mouth.
OBJECTIVE To identify drugs associated with the complaint of dry mouth. MATERIALS AND METHODS MEDLINE was searched for papers 1980-2002 using keywords, oral, mouth, salivary, drugs, dry mouth and xerostomia, and relevant secondary references were hand-searched. RESULTS Evidence was forthcoming for a number of xerogenic drugs, especially antimuscarinic agents, some sympathomimetic agents, an...
متن کاملElectromyography Analysis of Upper Trapezius Relaxation Induced by Interferential Current in Subjects with Neck Discomfort
Purpose: To evaluate the muscular relaxation of the upper trapezius induced by interferential current (IFC) application during rest and functional activities using surface electromyography registration (EMG). Method: We evaluated the “root mean square” value (RMS) of the upper trapezius during rest and functional activities in subjects with neck discomfort before and after IFC applications. Thi...
متن کاملEfficacy of Salvage Interferential Electrical Stimulation Therapy in Patients With Medication-Refractory Enuresis: A Pilot Study
PURPOSE In pediatric patients with enuresis, the protocol for salvage therapy in patients in whom first-line therapy was not successful has not yet been established. Interferential electrical stimulation (IF-ES) therapy is advantageous because it is noninvasive and shows high compliance. We aimed to investigate the efficacy and safety of IF-ES therapy on pediatric enuresis in a pilot study. M...
متن کاملIncreased secretion of salivary glands produced by facial vibrotactile stimulation
Patients with low-back pain can be evaluated immediately by means of an electrical tool that produces bony vibration to the lumbar spinal processes (Yrjama M, Vanharanta H. Bony vibrotactile stimulation: A new, non-invasive method for examining intradiscal pain. European Spine Journal 1994;3:233-235). In the rehabilitation of masticatory disturbance and dysphagia, an electric toothbrush is comm...
