Temporomandibular Joint Disorders: Prevention [Clinical Review Discussion]
Thursday, July 08, 2010 12:38 PM
( permalink)
Temporomandibular joint disorder (TMD) is a condition that has multiple etiologies. Pain in the temporomandibular region can arise as the result of myofascial dysfunction, arthralgia, internal derangement of the joint or as part of a larger psychosocial complex of symptoms. It should be noted that the natural course of TMD results in 31% of patients remaining symptomatic after 5 years while 33% enter remission and 36% have recurrent symptoms (1).
