Temporomandibular disorder and generalized joint hypermobility: application of diagnostic criteria

Abstract: General ized joint hypermobility (GJH) has been considered a predisposing factor for the development of temporomandibular disorder (TMD). Aim:To evaluate clinical and psychosocial aspects in individuals diagnosed with TMD with or without GJH. Materials and methods:Clinical and experimental study, which enrolled 34 women, from 18 to 35 years of age with TMD diagnosed by RDC/TMD. The GJH was assessed by the Beighton score and volunteers were broken down into 2 groups: with GJH (n = 22) and without GJH (n = 12). … Show more

“…This study 24 investigated 893 subjects aged between 20 and 60 years, 8.4% of them with GJH, and found increased risk of cracking sounds in hypermobile individuals (70%), although there was no TMJ pain, whether myofascial pain or arthralgia. However, other studies 18,25 , which also used the Beighton criteria, found no association between GJH and TMD.…”

“…A) passive dorsiflexion of the fifth finger, so that it is parallel with the flexor aspect of the forearm; B) ability to hyperextend the knee beyond 10º; C) forward flexion of trunk, so that the individual is able to place their palms on the floor with knees fully extended; D) passive thumb dorsiflexion to the flexor aspect of the forearm; E) ability to hyperextend the elbow beyond 10º. Source: Pasinato et al (10) The instrument was applied by a trained physiotherapist aiming at evaluating the aspects that could be influenced by GJH, such as opening pattern, range of mandibular motion, and the presence of joint noise. For the assessment of occlusion, which was conducted by faculty members of the Odontology Course of UFSM, performance of orthodontic and/or occlusal treatment was questioned and the Angle classification, presence of overbite, overjet and crossbite, pattern of disocclusion, and occlusal interferences were verified.…”
