The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1978Of the 127 patients treated for MPDS over a 30 month period, only six patients did not make at least a 90% recovery within 3 to 4 months. In most instances a spectacular degree of success was achieved within 2 to 3 weeks. Ten percent of the patients who were treated had had symptoms of the MPDS for a period longer than 5 years.

Current Pain and Headache Reports, 2006Myofascial pain syndrome (MPS) is caused by myofascial trigger points (MTrPs) located within taut bands of skeletal muscle fibers. Treating the underlying etiologic lesion responsible for MTrP activation is the most important strategy in MPS therapy. If the underlying pathology is not given the appropriate treatment, the MTrP cannot be completely and ...
