Traditional Self-Care Control Arm
Traditional self-care focuses on rest and healing through changes in chewing, diet, heat/cold, over the counter analgesics, and reducing strain from oral and sleeping habits. Participants in the traditional arm may also be receiving usual care from their dentist such as a splint or anti-inflammatory medications. They will complete follow-up measures at 8-weeks (post-intervention) and at 16-weeks (2 months after program end).
|
PACT Experimental Arm
Participants enrolled in the experimental arm are prompted to complete a self-management program, Personalized Activated Care and Training (PACT), The program provides 8 weeks of structured didactic and experiential training on exercises and cognitive- behavioral training to reduce risk factors that contribute to delayed recovery and enhance protective factors designed to improve TMD pain. Participants also complete follow-up measures at 8-weeks (post-intervention) and at 16-weeks (2 months after program end). These participants are also supported by a health coach.

Traditional Self-Care Control Arm
n=41 Participants
Traditional self-care includes focusing on rest and healing through changes in chewing, diet, heat/cold, over the counter analgesics, and reducing strain from oral and sleeping habits. Participants will also participate in usual care from the dentist such as a splint or anti-inflammatory medications. Participants will complete follow-up measures at 8-weeks (post-intervention) and at 16-weeks (2 months after program end). .

PACT Experimental Arm
n=39 Participants
PACT Experimental Arm: The study employs a self-management program, entitled Personalized Activated Care and Training (PACT) that is a tailored 8-week progressive web-based training program supported by a health coach to enhance understanding, compliance, and success in improving TMD pain. The program provides 8 weeks of structured didactic and experiential training on exercises and cognitive- behavioral training to reduce risk factors that contribute to delayed recovery and enhance protective factors that have evidence of improving TMD pain.
