Abstract

Introduction: There is a growing recognition that oral health has a significant impact not only physical, but also social and psychological. Temporomandibular disorder (TMD) can cause relevant morbidities, resulting in consequences that affect quality of life. Objective: To evaluate the quality of life in patients with TMD. Material and Methods: An observational and cross-sectional study was carried out, in which 34 patients, regardless of gender, over 18 years old, attended in the TMD discipline of the Dentistry course at the Faculty of Medical and Health Sciences of Juiz de Fora were evaluated. (SUPREME). Through the application of axis I of the RDC / TMD, individuals were classified according to the diagnosis of TMD. The selected participants answered the OHIP-14 questionnaire, which made it possible to assess the impact of oral health on patients' quality of life. Results: Regarding RDC / TMD, 38.24% of the patients were diagnosed with myofascial pain in Group I, 62% of the patients had a unilateral diagnosis in Group II and 47% of the patients had a bilateral diagnosis in Group III. The average OHIP-14 score was 18.65 (standard deviation = 10.77), ranging from 0 to 52 points. The average score of individuals who presented myofascial pain with opening limitation was statistically higher than the score of individuals with myofascial pain. The correlation between the age of the participants and their respective OHIP-14 scores was statistically significant. Conclusion: Greater association between OHIP-14 scores and muscle dysfunctions, it being possible to suggest that a muscle dysfunction associated with limited mouth opening generated a greater impact on patients' quality of life. Elderly patients with TMD have a greater impact on their oral health-related quality of life.
