Exclusion criteria

These criteria were determined with the objective of eliminating factors that could mask the initial conditions, introduce etiological and / or iatrogenic factors or prevent the implementation of the methodology present in this work.

| Expected Outcome 1: It is expected through an evaluative and comparative study involving the existence or not of discrepancies between Centric Relationship and Maximum Intercuspalation, in populations with or without symptomatology of TMD, in the age groups of young and adult individuals. the presence or absence of this discrepancy; as well as a possible increase in its severity associated with head / fossa-mandibular space with temporomandibular disorders.;Outcome Found 1: Relationship of the mandible head / mandibular fossa, in the presence or absence of TMD symptoms, comparing it in the Centric Relation and Maximum Intercuspal positions, in both young and adult subjects, no statistically significant differences were found; the spatial relationship in the TMJs, either in CR or MI, comparing the groups of symptomatic and asymptomatic individuals, in the different age groups, for only one measure was found statistical difference and for correlations between young and adults, it was observed statistical differences in all correlations. | — |
