Abstract

Objective: This systematic review aimed to compare outcomes between ultrasound (US)-guided arthrocentesis and conventional arthrocentesis for the management of temporomandibular joint disorders (TMDs). Methods: PubMed, MEDLINE, Cochrane Library, Google Scholar and th EBSCOhost databases were searched up to 30 September 2020 for randomized control trials (RCTs) comparing US-guided and conventional arthrocentesis. The review protocol followed the PRISMA guidelines and was registered in PROSPERO (CRD42020211942). The risk of bias of the studies was independently evaluated using Cochrane Risk of Bias tool. Results: Four RCTs were included. It did not demonstrate any statistically signicant difference in pain or maximal mouth opening (MMO) scores after 1 week and 1 month of follow-up between US-guided and conventional arthrocentesis. Studies also reported data on intra-operative needle relocations and operating time but with conicting results. Conclusion: This study indicates that the use of US during arthrocentesis may not improve postoperative pain and MMO in the short term. Further high-quality adequately powered RCTs are required to strengthen current evidence.
