Individuals included in the study will be divided into 2 groups, Stabilization and Control groups, by block randomization method. A standard treatment program (Education + home exercises) will be applied to both groups. In addition to the stabilization group, cervical stabilization exercises will be applied. Individuals will be evaluated with the Sociodemographic Data Form and International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) before the application.
Before and after the application, individuals were assessed for TMJ and Neck pain with the Numerical Rating Scale (NRS), TMJ symptom severity with the Fonseka questionnaire, pain threshold with the Analog Algometer, TMJ range of motion with the digital caliper, jaw functions with the Jaw Function Limitation Scale (JFLS-20) and cervical posture, muscle performance and mobility will be evaluated with craniovertebral angle, craniocervical flexion test and goniometer.
