“…Gavish et al 8 showed a lower prevalence of muscle tenderness in his study sample (23.4%), while for Winocur et al 13 these values ranged from 18% (men) to 43% (women). In relation to gender, literature presents countless researches which show the occurrence of female predominance [1][2][5][6][12][13]17 . This study also showed a statistically significant relationship (p = 0.032) between TMD and gender (women).…”

“…Table 3 shows the relationship between parafunctional habits and issues that assessed the TMD symptoms, adapted from previous studies [11][12][13] , presenting only statistically significant relationships by the chi-square test. It was found that the habit which was associated with the highest number of symptoms was the prone sleeping position.…”

“…Parafunctional habits are very common in adolescents 8 , but the literature about TMD studies in adolescents is scarce, also there are few studies to relate TDM and parafunctional habits for this age group [8][9]13 . These findings emphasize the need for further studies regarding the TMD prevalence and associated factors because of its high prevalence in the population and high social and personal costs.…”

“…The questionnaire also included questions related to TMD symptoms commonly experienced, adapted from other works [8][9]13 , such as the feeling of noise in the temporomandibular joint during movement, if there was a crash when opening and closing the mouth, a pain during chewing and fatigue during mastication, temporomandibular joint pain, difficulty in performing jaw movements, pain in the jaw or face at rest.…”

“…After completing the questionnaire, a summarized protocol of the clinical evaluation of DTM [8][9]13,16 was made containing the muscle palpation and assessment of joint and jaw movement. An examiner previously regulated by an experienced professional in the field, with Kappainter coefficients and intra-examiner of 0.80 and 0.90, respectively, held the simplified clinical examination at school, in rooms selected by the institutions.…”

ObjectiveDetermine the prevalence of signs and symptoms of temporomandibular disorder (TMD) (p = 0.032) habits (p = 0.014) Results 84.5% of individuals showed a degree of auto-reported dysfunction. The most frequent parafunctional habit was chewing gum (65.9%) while the habit of biting objects was significantly associated with the presence of TMD symptoms (p = 0.042). There was a statistically significant association between TMD symptoms with variables such as gender

The study aims to investigate signs and symptoms of temporomandibular disorders (TMD) among physicians in a tertiary health‐care center. It has estimated the level of symptomatology, determined the association with demographic data, and identified the related occupational risk factors. A cross‐sectional survey was used, and physicians of genders, all age groups, and nationalities from King Abdulaziz Medical City in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, were recruited. Subjects who had rheumatic arthritis, osteoarthritis, trigeminal neuralgia, or temporomandibular joint (TMJ) trauma were excluded. The data were collected through a self‐administered questionnaire that measured TMD severity and oral parafunctional behaviors. Fonseca's anamnestic index (FAI) and an oral validated behavior checklist were used to assess the signs and symptoms of TMD. A total of 282 physicians participated in the study, and the prevalence of TMD signs among physicians was 37% (106); among them, 88 (83%) were within the light dysfunction category. Female physicians reported significantly higher FAI than males for side‐to‐side mandibular movement (12% vs. 5%, P = 0.04), reporting ear pain (18% vs. 10%, P = 0.04), and noticing clicking when chewing or opening the mouth (35% vs. 20%, P = 0.006). Younger practitioners (28–31 years old) who reported clicking while chewing or opening the mouth tended to have reported higher TMD dysfunction (35%) than those aged 40 and above (13%; P = 0.007). Self‐reported signs of TMD were 37% among our population. Information collected from FAI is useful in early diagnosis and prevention of TMD.
