ABSTRACT
Statement of the Problem:
Temporomandibular disorder [TMD] is a clinical term used for clinical signs and symptoms that affect the temporomandibular joints, masticatory muscles, and associated structures. Surgical and non-surgical treatments can be used for management of TMD. Non-surgical route is the main part of the treatment, since clinicians prefer non-aggressive treatment for TMD such as pharmacological and physical therapy. Low-level laser therapy [LLLT] and transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation [TENS] are the main procedures in physical therapy
