Temporomandibular Bozukluk Sınıflandırma Sistemlerine Yönelik Bakış Açıları: Türkiye'deki Ağız, Diş ve Çene Cerrahları Arasında Bir Ön Çalışma

Year 2024, Volume: 3 Issue: 3, 89 - 92, 27.09.2024

Abstract

Amaç: Temporomandibular düzensizlikler (TMD), temporomandibular eklem (TME), çiğneme kasları ve kraniofasiyal bölgede ağrı ile karakterize edilen çeşitli musküloskeletal durumları içeren geniş bir spektrumu temsil etmektedir. TMD etkisi fiziksel rahatsızlığın ötesine geçerek uyku kalitesini, sosyal etkileşimleri ve psikolojik iyilik hâlini etkileyerek genel yaşam kalitesini azaltmaktadır. Populasyonda oldukça yaygın olmasına rağmen, örtüşen semptomlar ve evrensel olarak kabul edilen bir tanı aracının olmaması gibi nedenlerle tanısal zorluklar oluşturmaktadır. Bu çalışma, Türkiye'deki ağız, diş ve çene cerrahlarının TMD sınıflandırma sistemleri üzerine bakış açılarını değerlendirmeyi amaçlamaktadır. Bu değerlendirme, katılımcıların deneyimleri, çalışma koşulları ve bu araçların klinik uygulamadaki entegrasyonunu dikkate almaktadır.
Materyal ve Metot: Google Forms üzerinden Eylül 2023 - Nisan 2024 tarihleri arasında ağız ve çene cerrahları arasında bir anket yapılmıştır.
Bulgular: Katılımcılar arasında, sınıflandırma sistemleri arasında Diagnostic Criteria for TMD (DC/TMD) protokolünün daha sık tercih edildiği, ancak hasta muayenesi sırasında zaman kısıtları, radyolojik görüntüleme değerlendirmesinde orta düzeyde yeterlilik, ve psikolojik değerlendirme araçları konusunda sınırlı farkındalık gibi zorluklar belirlenmiştir.
Sonuç: Çalışma, TMD tanısında multidisipliner çalışmanın önemini vurgulamakta ve mevcut engelleri ele almaktadır. Ayrıca sürecin doğru yönetilebilmesi ve stratejileri optimize etmek için hem sınıflandırma hem de tedavi yöntemlerinde standartlaştırılmış kılavuzların kullanılmasının gerekliliğini ortaya koymaktadır.

Perspectives on Temporomandibular Disorder Classification Systems: A Preliminary Study Among Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons in Turkey

Year 2024, Volume: 3 Issue: 3, 89 - 92, 27.09.2024

Abstract

Purpose: Temporomandibular disorders (TMDs) represent a diverse spectrum of musculoskeletal conditions characterized by pain in the temporomandibular joint (TMJ), masticatory muscles, and craniofacial region. The impact of TMDs extends beyond physical discomfort, affecting sleep quality, social interactions, and psychological well-being, thereby reducing overall quality of life. Despite their prevalence, TMDs pose diagnostic challenges due to overlapping symptoms and the absence of a universally accepted diagnostic tool. This study aims to evaluate the perspectives of oral and maxillofacial surgeons in Turkey on TMD classification systems, considering their experience, working conditions, and integration of these tools into clinical practice.
Material and Methods: A survey was conducted among oral and maxillofacial surgeons via Google Forms between September 2023- April 2024.
Results: Preference for the Diagnostic Criteria for TMD (DC/TMD) protocol, though challenges such as time constraints during patient examinations, moderate competence in assessing radiological imaging, and limited awareness of psychological assessment tools were identified.
Conclusion: The study emphasizes the importance of multidisciplinary collaboration in TMD diagnosis and the need for the utilization of a standardized guideline in both classification and treatment modalities to address existing barriers and optimize TMD management strategies.
