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

Prevalance of Temporomandibular Joint Disease
Temporomandibular Joint DisordersTemporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders are common problems in the society and involve the masticator muscles, jaw joint and related structures. Since TMJ disorders affect functions such as eating and speaking, they can cause important problems in the daily life of the patient. Therefore, its diagnosis and treatment are of great importance. In the treatment of these patients, methods such as analgesic and anti-inflammatory drugs, splint, exercise, physical therapy modalities can be applied.
Temporomandibular Dysfunction Affects Neck Disability, Headache, Anxiety, And Sleep Quality In Women:...
Temporomandibular DisordersHeadache3 moreThe temporomandibular joint (TMJ), is the only movable joint between the joints in the head and neck system. It is a component of the chewing system and is involved in important functions such as speech, swallowing, taste and breathing. Temporomandibular dysfunction (TMD) is the general name given to various musculoskeletal problems seen in the stomatognathic system, mostly affecting the masticatory muscles and/or TMJ. TMD is the second most common musculoskeletal pain after chronic low back pain. Patients with TMD may also complain of other musculoskeletal problems, craniocervical problems, sleep problems, and anxiety disorders. The aim of this study is to investigate, compare and examine the relationship between neck dysfunction, headache and temporomandibular dysfunction severity, anxiety and sleep quality in female individuals.
Correlation Between Cervical Spine Muscle Disorders and the Occurrence of Symptoms of Temporomandibular...
Temporomandibular Joint DisordersThis study evaluated the correlation between the occurrence of disorders of selected muscles of the cervical spine and the occurrence of symptoms of TMJ dysfunction
Prevalence of Temporomandibular Joint Dysfunction in Patients With Ankylosing Spondylitis
Ankylosing SpondylitisThis 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.
Respiratory Functions and Respiratory Muscle Strength in Patients With Temporomandibular Joint Dysfunction...
Temporomandibular Joint Dysfunction SyndromeIn our study, it was aimed to evaluate respiratory functions and respiratory muscle strength in patients diagnosed with temporomandibular dysfunction (TMD) and to compare them with healthy individuals. The study was conducted with a total of 46 participants, 23 of whom were diagnosed with TMD and 23 healthy individuals, at Batman Training and Research Hospital between August 2021 and December 2021. In the evaluation, the demographic information and clinical findings of the participants were recorded. Mandible movements were evaluated with a digital caliper. For TMJ, the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) was used to measure the severity of pain at rest and during activity. Cervical lordosis and shoulder posture assessment was done by distance measurement. Fonseca Anamnestic Index was used for TMD severity classification. Spirometric measurement was performed to evaluate respiratory functions of all participants and intraoral pressure measurement was performed to determine respiratory muscle strength. Statistical analyzes were performed using the IBM SPSS Statistics 26 program. Significance level was accepted as p<0.05.
Interest of Behavioural Reeducation in Dysfunctions of Masticatory Apparatus. Relations Between...
Temporomandibular DisordersIf etiologies of temporomandibular disorders (TMD) are various, parafunctions become more and more important. Treatment of patients presenting TMD is based on conservative and reversible therapeutics. The behavioural reeducation of these patients which aims at decreasing their parafunctions is a treatment often performed.
