Ji Woon Park 교수의 연구실은 임상적이고 기초적인 관점에서 템포매닉류관절장애(TMD)의 병태생리학적 기전과 임상적 특징을 밝히는 데 초점을 맞추고 있습니다. 특히 TMD와 수면 장애, 정서적 요인(우울·불안, 신체화), 헤드레코드 등 관련 질환 간의 상관관계를 체계적으로 분석하며, 영상의학적 소견(CT)과 임상 데이터의 연계 분석을 통해 진단 및 치료 전략을 모색하고 있습니다. 또한 환자 중심의 정보 접근성 문제(예: 유튜브 등 온라인 정보의 정확성)에 대해서도 연구를 확장하고 있습니다.

This study aimed to understand long-term changes of the osteoarthritic temporomandibular joint (TMJ) condyle using computed tomography (CT) and to verify its correlation with clinical characteristics of temporomandibular disorders. Eighty-nine patients (152 joints; 76 female, 13 male) who had taken follow-up CTs (mean follow-up period: 644.58 ± 325.71 days) at least once in addition to their initial evaluation were selected. Cross-sectional demographic and clinical data and longitudinal CT image
Functional jaw limitations were associated with painful TMDs but appear to be unrelated to somatization and psychological distress. Somatization and depression/anxiety were moderately correlated, underscoring the importance of somatic symptom screening when managing TMD patients.
Changes in headache characteristics in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) patients following oral appliance treatment was investigated for the first time. Thirteen OSA patients with headaches treated with a mandibular advancement device were investigated. Level I polysomnography and Migraine Disability Assessment Questionnaire were completed before and after treatment. Various headache characteristics and concomitant conditions were analyzed. The patient was considered a headache responder when ≥ 30%
Electrostatic precipitators (ESPs) have been widely used to control particulate pollutants, which adversely affect human health. In this study, a computational fluid-dynamic model for turbulent flow, particle trajectory, and particle charging in ESPs is presented using a pre-developed corona discharge model (Kim et al., 2010), wherein electric field and space charge distributions in the plasma region are numerically calculated. The ESP under consideration is a wire-to-plate single-stage ESP, whi
YouTube videos related to TMD contained low quality and scientifically inaccurate information that could negatively influence patients with TMD.
Primary sleep disorders could be an important independent risk factor for the initiation and maintenance of TMD. Patients with sleep disorders should be monitored for possible co-occurrence of TMD-related symptoms that could aggravate sleep disorders in turn.
Short sleep is associated with more comorbidities and unfavourable long-term treatment response in TMD which may be mediated by systemic inflammation. Effective management of sleep is necessary for successful TMD management.
