Smartphone Addiction and Temporomandibular Joint Dysfunction in Individuals With Nonspecific Neck...

Smartphone AddictionTemporomandibular Joint Dysfunction

It has been reported that excessive use of smartphones increases the stress on the cervical spine, and changes in cervical curvature and pain in the muscles around the neck are associated with the increase in stress. Studies have reported that smartphone users with addictions have neck pain (68%), upper back pain (62%), right shoulder pain (52%), left shoulder pain (46%), and right hand pain (46%). As a result of our study, the frequency of smartphone addiction and temporomandibular joint dysfunction and related factors in individuals with nonspecific neck pain were examined and the results we obtained will contribute to the literature.

Altered MAstication Contribute to TMJ PAin

Temporomandibular Joint DisordersMastication Disorder

The cause of temporomandibular joint disorders remains unknown. It is considered multifactorial and includes physical (peripheral) and psychosocial (central) factors. It has been showed an association: a steeper condylar path, flatter lateral anterior guidance, and habitual chewing on the symptomatic side. This finding argues the possibility of causation of some of these characteristics. This double blind longitudinal study aims to assess if the presence of one habitual chewing side could contribute to temporomandibular joint disorders over time. Method. Young adults with no signs or symptoms of TMD will be assessed. Participants with one chewing side (observed and interview); with steeper condylar path and lower lateral guidance angles will be considered consistent one side chewers, and this side will be considered more susceptible to suffer TMD. Mouth opening, hemispheric dominance and hemimandibular retrognathia will be considered as secondary pre-specified outcomes. Four years later, both TMJs of each participant presenting signs and/or symptoms will be evaluated according to DC/TMD.

Tissue and Clinical Characterisation of Temporomandibular Joint Diseases

Temporomandibular Joint DisordersTemporomandibular Arthritis2 more

Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) diseases or dysfunctions affects many patients. Surgical treatment is planned when non-invasive interventions have failed. Still, much is not known regarding aetiology of TMJ diseases and how and why the disease develops over time. The study aims to investigate synovial tissue, synovial fluid and clinical characteristics for patients with TMJ diseases or dysfunctions designated for surgery. Patient samples and clinical variables will be analysed in relation to TMJ diagnosis and related to surgical outcome. The study is a cohort observational study.

Masticatory Muscle Activity in Patients With Pain-related Temporomandibular Disorders

TMD

The aim of this study was to evaluate masticatory muscle electrical activity in patients with pain-related and pain-free temporomandibular disorders (TMD) as well as in subjects with no TMD. Ninety children with mixed dentition were recruited to the study. Of this total, 30 subjects were diagnosed with pain-related TMD, 30 with pain-free TMD, and 30 without TMD. We used Axis I of the Research Diagnostic Criteria for TMD (RDC/TMD) to assess the presence of TMD in the examined children. The electromyographical (EMG) potentials of the temporalis and masseter muscles were measured with a DAB-Bluetooth Instrument (Zebris Medical GmbH, Germany) at rest and during maximum voluntary clenching (MVC).

Prevalence of Temporomandibular Joint Dysfunction in Patients With Ankylosing Spondylitis

Ankylosing Spondylitis

This study included 113 patients diagnosed with ankylosing spondylitis and 110 healthy volunteers. Participants in both groups were evaluated using the 'Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular Disorders (DC/TMD)' diagnostic criteria. In addition, the relationship between temporomandibular joint dysfunction and disease activity was investigated in patients with ankylosing spondylitis.

Prevalence of Temporomandibular Disorders and Its Association With Oral Parafunctions, Neck Pain...

Temporomandibular DisorderNeck Pain

Purpose: To determine the prevalence of temporomandibular disorders (TMD) in female healthcare students and to assess its association with oral parafunctions, neck pain and function. Methods: Female medical students will be included in the study on a voluntary basis using stratified sampling method according to the department they were being educated. The presence and severity of TMD will be assessed with the Fonseca's Anamnestic Index (FAI). The oral parafunctions will be self-reported with the Oral Behavior Checklist (OBC). The neck pain and function will be recorded with the Core Outcome Measure Index (COMI). A Chi-square test and Spearman correlation analysis will used for statistical analysis.
