This study aimed to evaluate the effect of botulinum toxin type A (BTX-A) injection on masticatory performance and nutritional status in temporomandibular disorder patients with bruxism caused by both intra-articular and extra-articular pathologies based on Research Diagnostic Criteria for temporomandibular disorders (TMD). The baseline and end masticatory performance, pain intensity, nutrition and anxiety statuses, and anthropometric measurements will be compared.
