Abstract
Although there is no standard method in the treatment of temporomandibular joint disorders which has multifactorial etiology, various alternatives can be used together depending on the patient's symptoms and etiology. The main objective of treatment is to relieve the patient's pain. Today, in addition to traditional treatment methods, alternatives such as acupuncture are gaining an increasing area of use, especially in the treatment of muscle and neurological origin pain.
In studies examining the effect of acupuncture on pain, it has been found to have a short-term analgesic effect. In recent years, it has become widespread in the treatment of temporomandibular disorders as an alternative or as an additional method to other treatments. When various studies evaluating the effectiveness of acupuncture in the temporomandibular region are examined, a wide variety of results are encountered. Along with the studies that have been observed to relieve pain in the temporomandibular region, there are also studies that have been reported to have no effect. It has been determined that this difference in results is due to the lack of a standard examination method in the studies and to a wide variety of differences in material-method.
In our study, effect of acupuncture in temporomandibular joint disorders was mentioned; It is aimed to examine different views in the literature on the subject by mentioning various studies in this field.

Abstract
Multifaktöriyel etiyolojiye sahip temporomandibular eklem rahatsızlıklarının tedavisinde standart bir yöntem bulunmamakla birlikte, hastanın semptomları ve etiyolojisine bağlı olarak çeşitli alternatifler bir arada kullanılabilir. Tedavinin temel amacı hastanın ağrısının giderilmesidir. Günümüzde geleneksel tedavi yöntemlerine ek olarak akupunktur gibi alternatifler de özellikle kas ve nörolojik kaynaklı ağrı tedavilerinde giderek artan bir kullanım alanı kazanmaktadır.
Akupunkturun ağrı üzerindeki etkisini inceleyen çalışmalarda, kısa vadeli analjezik etkisi olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Son yıllarda temporomandibular rahatsızlıkların tedavisinde de alternatif olarak veya diğer tedavilere ek bir yöntem olarak kullanımı yaygınlaşmıştır. Akupunkturun temporomandibular bölgedeki etkinliğinin değerlendirildiği çeşitli çalışmalar incelendiğinde çok çeşitli sonuçlarla karşılaşılmaktadır. Temporomandibular bölgedeki ağrıyı giderdiği gözlenen çalışmalarla birlikte, etkisi olmadığının bildirildiği araştırmalara da rastlanmaktadır. Sonuçlardaki bu farklılığın çalışmalarda standart bir inceleme yöntemi olmaması ve materyal-metoddaki çok çeşitli farklılıklara bağlı olduğu tespit edilmiştir.
Çalışmamızda, temporomandibular eklem rahatsızlıklarında akupunkturun etki mekanizmasına değinilmiş; bu alandaki çeşitli çalışmalardan bahsedilerek konuyla ilgili literatürdeki farklı görüşlerin incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır.
