Brief summary
The aim of the study is, to evaluate the whole body posture and plantar pressure distributions in individuals with Temporomandibular Disorder and also in people with healthy temporomandibular joints. A study group aged between 18-35 years, 30 patients, who were diagnosed with Research Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular Disorders (RDC/TMD) who applied us with jaw pain and 30 healthy people at the same age range as a control group were included in the study. Both groups received global postural assessments by using PostureScreen Mobile® (PSM) program which is using four side photographs and the New York Posture Scale (NYPS). Static pedobarographic measurements were taken.
