Brief Summary

The aim of this study is to determine the effect of body mass index (BMI) and anxiety on masseter muscle thickness by using ultrasonography.

Conditions

Anxiety

Keywords

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• BMI and anxiety

  Increased BMI and the presence of anxiety cause thickening of the masseter muscle.

Study Arms (4)

Control Group

Without Anxiety - Normal BMI 15 patient nonanxiety group (HAD scores ranging from 0 to 10) body mass index is normal between 18.5-24.9

Device: ultrasonography

1st working group

High BMI \& Anxiety Normal 19 Patient nonanxiety group (HAD scores ranging from 0 to 10) Those with a high body mass index are between 25 and 29.9.

Device: ultrasonography

2st working group

Normal BMI \& High Anxiety (15 patients) having anxiety group (HAD scores ranging from 11 to 21) body mass index is normal between 18.5-24.9

Device: ultrasonography

3st working group

High BMI \& High Anxiety (19 patients) having anxiety group (HAD scores ranging from 11 to 21) Those with a high body mass index are between 25 and 29.9.

Device: ultrasonography

Interventions

ultrasonography DEVICE

We used ultrasonography to measure the patients' masseter muscle thickness. Measurements were performed simultaneously for both the right and left sides using a high frequency linear scanning probe (13-6 MHz) of an ultrasound device (Fujifilm Sonosite Edge II). In order to prevent possible artifacts and oblique imaging, the probe was kept perpendicular to the skin surface, and the distance between the location of the hyperechoic linear appearance of the mandibular and temporal bone in the transverse section and the muscular fascia were measured.

Study Population

Individuals in the Turkish population aged 18-45

You may qualify if:

• The study group consisted of individuals between the ages of 18 and 45 who, according to an examination of the masseter muscles under the 'Research Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular Disorders (RDC/TMD),' had the presence of pain in at least one region in the palpation made from three regions (origin, center, attachment zone) or had pain in chewing muscles in the preceding month.

You may not qualify if:

• Exluded from the study where those who had experienced any systemic discomfort from the study group, those who had undergone acute temporomandibular joint trauma, those who had experienced early occlusion of the teeth, those who were using any moving dental prosthesis, those with clenching habits, those who use cigarette-alcohol, those with temporomandibular joint discomfort, and those with unilateral chewing habits.
