Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: To participate in the study, besides belonging to the pre-established age groups for each group of this study, the individuals of the sample should present all dental elements (the presence of third molars being optional) and the absence of previous report of unilateral or bilateral articular ankylosis. or significant trauma in the TMJ region.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: The criteria used to exclude any individuals from participation in this research were: previous orthodontic treatment, signs of advanced periodontal disease, subjects undergoing previous occlusal adjustment, history of facial trauma, systemic diseases with anatomical degeneration of the mandible or mandibular fossa, trismus. and teeth with active caries process that can cause odontogenic pain. 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. RDC / TMD exclusion factors such as myospasm, myositis, muscle contracture, polyarthritis, acute traumatic injuries, and temporomandibular joint infections were also used.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
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.
