Özet: Myofascial pain-dysfunction syndrome (MPDS) is a form of myalgia that is characterized by local regions of muscle hardness that are tender and cause pain to be felt at a distance, i.e., referred pain. The central component of the syndrome is the trigger point (TrP) that is composed of a tender, taut band. Stimulation of the band, either mechanically or with activity, can produce pain. Masticatory muscle fatigue and spasm are responsible for the cardinal symptoms of pain, tenderness, clicking, and limited function that characterize the MPDS. Since MPDS covers a wide range of symptoms, it might be difficult to diagnose and provide definitive treatment. A better understanding and working knowledge of TrPs and MPDS offers an effective approach to relieve pain, restore function, and contribute significantly to patient’s quality of life.
