Abstract

Most of studies
showed that the temporomandıbular disorders (TMD) caused by multifactorial
aetiology. Oral parafunctions, malocclusion, joint anatomy, pathophysiology,
genetic, psychosocial aspects (emotional status) and trauma are the known
contributing factors. Population-based studies report that 10% to 15% of adults
experience TMD, and it is more commonly encountered in women. Multidisciplinary
approach including multiple specialties, comprising general dentistry,
orofacial pain, physical therapy, surgery, orthodontics and psychiatry could be
necessary to fully address the problem from all perspectives. Aims of treatment
are decreasing pain, increasing function and opening level of mouth, preventing
further joint damage, improving quality of life.
