description | Context: Temporomandibular disorder (TDM) is defined as a
heterogenous group of psychophysiological disorders commonly
characterised by orofacial pain, chewing dysfunction or both.
Various Epidemiological studies had shown occurrence of TMD
in all age groups including children. Also research had shown that
non nutritional oral habits to be associated with TMD.
Aim: Present study aimed to find whether harmful oral habits are
associated with sign and symptoms of TMD among adolescents
in Greater Noida.
Setting and Design: Schools in Gautam Buddha district and
descriptive study.
Materials and Methods: Cross sectional study was carried
out among 240 adolescents (10 – 19 years) studying in schools
of Greater Noida. Study population were selected by random
sampling to whom screening questionnaires recommended by
American Academy of Orofacial Pain (AAOP) were distributed.
Patient history and clinical examination was used to determine
harmful oral habits. Data analysis was done in SPSS version 21
and Chi-square test was applied.
Results: Sixty one participants (25.4%) displayed no sign and
symptoms of TMD, 34 (14.2%) responded affirmatively to atleast
one item on the questionnaire and 108(46%) gave at least three
affirmative responses. Headache, Neckpain and Toothache were
most frequent reported sign and symptoms of TMD (46.2%).
There was statistically significant association between gender and
sign and symptoms of TMD on three items of the questionnaire (p
< 0.05). Nail Biting (45.8%), Biting Lips/objects (37%) were most
common habits among the study group. There was statistically
significant association between Nail Biting (p = 0.001), Lip Biting/
object biting (p=0.001), Grinding of teeth (p = 0.01) and sign and
symptoms of TMD.
Conclusion: A statistically significant association was found
between nail biting, lip/ object biting and grinding of teeth with
signs and/or symptoms of TMD. Thus there is need for preventive
dental treatment and community dental education so that young
adults realize importance of early diagnosis and treatment of TMJ
disorders. |
