The study aims to evaluate clinically and radiographically the effectiveness of arthrocentesis and injection of I-PRF with wearing ARS in comparison to arthrocentesis and ARS only.
The patient will be seated at a 45° angle with the head turned toward the unaffected side. After preparing and disinfecting the target site with betadine, two points will be marked over the affected joint. Local anesthesia will be administered to block the auriculotemporal nerve. Using 19-gauge needles, the superior joint space will be distended with 2-3 ml of Ringer's solution. Another needle will be inserted into the distended compartment near the articular eminence to facilitate solution flow. Lactated Ringer's solution, connected to one needle, will be infused with sufficient pressure (200 mL in 15-20 minutes) to release adhesions. Following the removal of one needle, 2 ml of injectable platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) will be injected into the superior joint space.
For the preparation of injectable PRF, 20 ml of the patient's blood will be drawn and divided into two 10 ml vaccutainers. After centrifugation, the obtained PRF will be aspirated into a 5 ml syringe, and 1.5 to 2 ml of PRF will be injected into the superior joint space.

| Patients who received treatment involving ARS and arthrocentesis only | Procedure | A 5mm acrylic anterior repositioning splint (ARS) with maxillary coverage was crafted from alginate impressions. After arthrocentesis, the ARS was worn incrementally over six months, starting at two hours and reaching 14 hours daily. In the second week, wear time was continuous, increasing to 24 hours daily (excluding meals) until the sixth month. The ramp was removed in the seventh week. Follow-ups involved grinding the splint by 1mm every four weeks. Arthrocentesis included anesthesia, betadine prep, and using two 18-gauge needles to inject Ringer's lactate solution (100-200 cc) for joint lavage, freeing the disc by moving the lower jaw in various orientations. |

| Patients who received treatment involving ARS, arthrocentesis, and an I-PRF injection | Procedure | A 5mm acrylic anterior repositioning splint (ARS) was crafted from alginate impressions, secured with Adam's clasps on upper first molars. After arthrocentesis, patients wore the splint incrementally over six months, starting at two hours and reaching 24 hours daily (excluding meals). The ramp was removed in the seventh week, and follow-ups included grinding the splint by 1mm every four weeks until it reached 3mm, guided by articulating paper. Arthrocentesis involved administering anesthesia, prepping the area with betadine, and using two 18-gauge needles to inject 2-3 ml of Ringer's lactate solution for joint lavage. The lower jaw was moved to free the disc and release fibrous tissue. I-PRF preparation included centrifuging collected blood for 3 minutes at 700 rpm, and the resulting I-PRF was injected into the superior joint space of the lavaged joints. |
