Objective: To evaluate the effects of successful TMJ treatment on relief of pain, improvement of mandibular movement and capsular width with clinical and ultrasonography (US) findings. In this study, TMJ changes were evaluated by clinical and US examination after US-guided single-puncture arthrocentesis, which represents a novel approach.
