Temporomandibular disorders are a common cause of chronic pain in the orofacial region and have a complex and multi-factorial pathophysiology. Mechanical loading or inflammatory conditions have been shown to decrease oxygen tension within the joint cartilage and activate the hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) pathway, which in turn aggravates the pathological processes underlying temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders. We previously showed that low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) treatment effectively repairs TMJ injury induced by ch
