Brief Summary

Trauma, neurological disorders and psychological problems, which are the etiological factors of temporomandibular joint dysfunction, can be seen in patients with traumatic brain injury. The aim of this study is to investigate temporomandibular joint dysfunction in patients with traumatic brain injury. Participants (traumatic brain injury patients and healthy volunteers) will be evaluated once for temporomandibular joint dysfunction.

Conditions

Temporomandibular Dysfunction

Keywords

Temporomandibular Dysfunction,; traumatic brain injury; headache

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Frequency of temporomandibular joint dysfunction in patients with traumatic brain injury

  01.11.2022

Study Arms (2)

Patients with traumatic brain injury

Temporomandibular joint range of motion, Fonseca questionnaire, facial asymmetry, and massater and temporal pain threshold will be evaluated by measuring both TBI patients and healthy individuals. In addition, post-injury dietary intake and dominant chewing side will be questioned in TBI patients. Temporomandibular movements will be measured with a disposable cardboard ruler.

Diagnostic Test: Fonseca questionnaire

healthy volunteers

Temporomandibular joint range of motion, Fonseca questionnaire, facial asymmetry, and massater and temporal pain threshold will be evaluated by measuring both TBI patients and healthy individuals. Temporomandibular movements will be measured with a disposable cardboard ruler.

Diagnostic Test: Fonseca questionnaire

Interventions
