Introduction: Osteopathic manual therapy is used for the treatment of tem-poromandibular disorder. Objective: Observe the change in pain and amplitude of the maximum verti-cal opening range of the mouth after an osteopathic treatment protocol.
Methodology: The American Association of Orofacial Pain screening ques-tionnaire was used for the selection of patients and the Research Diagnostic of Orofacial Pain screening was used for the selection of patients and the Research Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular Disorders for the diagnostic and study of the variables. Muscle pain was measured by palpation of the muscles and the RMV is measured using a ruler. Release techniques were used for the elimination of the pain and increase of the RMV, myofascial suboccipital inhibition, treatment of the TrPs and relaxation of the ligaments.
Results: The Student-t was used for the statistical analysis of the data. No significant results regarding the decrease of overall muscle pain have been (2,4000 ± 3,80643, p = 0, 177). Although yes to see the breadth of the range before (49,700 ± 4,2176, p = 0, 00) and after treatment (50,700 ± 3,3350, p = 0, 000).
Conclusions: The results cannot be generalized due to low sample size. It would be necessary to conduct further research with a larger sample size. - Abstract

Introducción: La terapia manual osteopática es utilizada para el tratamiento del trastorno temporomandibular.
Objetivo: Observar el cambio del dolor y amplitud del rango máximo vertical de apertura de la boca tras un protocolo de tratamiento osteopático.
Metodología: Se utilizó el cuestionario de cribado de la American Associa-tion of Orofacial Pain para la selección de los pacientes y el del del Research Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular Disorders para el diagnóstico y estudio de las variables. Se midió el dolor muscular por palpación y el RMV con una regla. Para la eliminación del dolor y aumento del RMV, se utilizaron técnicas de liberación miofascial, inhibición suboccipital, tratamiento de los TrPs y relajación de los ligamentos.
Resultados: Para el análisis estadístico de los datos se utilizó la t-Student. No se han obtenido resultados significativos respecto a la disminución del dolor muscular general (2,4000 ± 3,80643, p=0,177). Aunque sí al comparar la amplitud del rango antes (49,700 ± 4,2176, p=0,00) y después del trata-miento (50,700 ± 3,3350, p=0,000).
Conclusiones: Los resultados obtenidos no se pueden generalizar debido al bajo tamaño de la muestra. Sería necesario realizar otra investigación con un tamaño de muestra mayor. - presented at
