“…5,11,12,16,31 Subclinical symptoms of TMD have been investigated with FAI, which is used in the early diagnosis and detection of TMD to prevent the progression and early treatment of TMD symptoms, enabling the rapid and accessible collection of large amounts of data at the minimum cost used in many previous studies. 5,19,32,33 Similar to previous studies conducted in various university student populations and reported TMD prevalence between 37-80% 5,[13][14][15][16][17]19,25 , this study, which included only dental assistant program students, also found a high prevalence of TMD (64.8%) compared to the prevalence of TMD absence (35.2%). These results may be due to differences in populations such as genetic structure, physiological differences, sex distribution, or social demographic characteristics, and the anxiety caused by the COVID-19 pandemic at the time of the study.…”

Objective: This cross-sectional descriptive study aimed to determine the prevalence of temporomandibular disorder (TMD) and oral parafunctions in dental assistant students and examine the effects of sex and years of education. Materials and Methods: One-hundred five dental assistant students were included in the study. The Fonseca Anamnestic Index (FAI) was used to evaluate the presence of TMD in individuals, and the Oral Habit Checklist (OBC) was used to evaluate oral parafunctions. Results: Sixty-eight individuals (64.8%) had TMD at some level. It was determined that 46 of the females, who constituted the majority of the participants, had mild-TMD, which was significantly different from the males (p<0.001). According to the OBC results, oral parafunctions were associated with TMD, with low-moderate significant correlations (p <0.05). Conclusion: Early diagnosis of temporomandibular joint problems with various questionaries in the university, especially in the young population, is vital in terms of disease prognosis and will prevent future complications.

“…[18][19][20] Recently, it was also confirmed to be reliable for assessing TMD severity. 21 The FAI was used in many studies to determine the presence and severity of TMDs in non-patient populations. [22][23][24][25][26] However, studies on TMD severity in patient populations are scarce and its relationship with psychological distress and OHRQoL had not been commonly investigated.…”

Background: Studies on temporomandibular disorder (TMD) severity in patient populations are scarce.Objectives: This study sought to compare the psychological states and oral healthrelated quality of life (OHRQoL) among patients with differing TMD severity. Methods: Adult patients (≥18 years old) with and without (controls) TMDs were recruited from the TMD/oro-facial pain centre and prosthodontics department, respectively. The presence and severity of TMDs were established with the Fonseca Anamnestic Index (FAI), and TMD diagnoses were confirmed with the Diagnostic Criteria for TMDs (DC/TMD). Psychological states and OHRQoL were examined with the Depression, Anxiety, Stress Scales-21 (DASS-21) and Oral Health Impact Profile for TMDs (OHIP-TMD). Data were subjected to chi-square, Kruskal-Wallis/Mann-Whitney U tests and Spearman's correlation (α = .05).Results: A total of 961 participants with a mean age of 32.99 ± 13.14 years (71.19% women) were assessed. Frequencies of the various TMD categories were as follows:no TMD/controls (12.07%), mild TMD (24.56%), moderate TMD (40.37%) and severe TMD (23.00%). The three most common TMD-related symptoms were TMJ noises, mouth opening difficulty and muscle pain. Participants with moderate/severe TMD presented a higher proportion of intra-articular and/or combined disorders. They reported significantly higher levels of depression, anxiety, stress and poorer OHRQoL than their counterparts with no/mild TMD (p < .001). Moderate-to-strong correlations were observed between FAI and DASS-21/OHIP-TMD scores (rs = 0.42-0.72). Conclusions:Patients with moderate/severe TMD had significantly higher levels of psychological disturbance and poorer OHRQoL. As OHRQoL and psychological states are correlated, psychological well-being must be considered when managing patients with moderate/severe TMDs.

“…TMD şiddet ve prevalansını değerlendirmede kullanılan Fonseca anketi kolay uygulanabilirliği, düşük maliyeti ve kısa zamanda etkili veri sağlaması gibi avantajlara sahiptir (20,21). Daha önce TMD prevalansı ile alakalı birçok çalışmada bu anket tercih edilmiştir (15,(21)(22)(23). Bu çalışmada Fonseca anketine göre 438 öğrencinin %27,6'sında TMD yok iken; %72,4'ünde TMD olup, %46,3'ünde hafif, %19,2'sinde orta ve %6,8'inde ise şiddetli TMD vardır.…”

“…TMD hastalarının sağlıklı popülasyon içerisinde teşhisini koyabilmek ve şiddetini belirlemek amacıyla kullanılan indekslerden birisi de 'Fonseca Anamnestic Index (FAI)'dir. FAI; Fonseca tarafından oluşturulan, basit, anlaşılır, güvenilirliği ispat edilmiş 10 sorudan oluşan bir ankettir (15,16). Bu çalışmada, Atatürk Üniversitesi Diş Hekimliği Fakültesi öğrencilerinde FAI kullanılarak TMD prevalans ve şiddetinin değerlendirilmesi amaçlanmıştır.…”

Bu çalışmanın amacı; Diş Hekimliği Fakültesi öğrencilerinin temporomandibular eklem disfonksiyonu (TMD) prevalansını ölçmek ve anksiyete ve depresyon ile ilişkisini değerlendirmektir.Materyal-Metot: Atatürk Üniversitesi Diş Hekimliği Fakültesi öğrencilerinden 244 kız, 194 erkek olmak üzere toplam 438 gönüllü öğrencinin Fonseca anketi yardımıyla temporomandibular eklem disfonksiyonu prevalansı değerlendirilmiştir. TMD olanlarda puanlarına göre Hafif (20-40 puan), Orta (45-65) ve Şiddetli TMD (70-100) olarak üçe sınıflandırılmıştır. Ayrıca bu öğrencilerde Hastane Anksiyete ve Depresyon Ölçeği (HAD) kullanılarak depresyon ve anksiyete riski belirlenmiş ve TMD ile depresyon ve anksiyete arasındaki ilişki değerlendirilmiştir. Verilerin analizinde SPSS (Statistical Package Program for Social Science) 23.0 programı yazılımı kullanılmıştır. Anlamlılık düzeyi için p değeri (p<0.05) olarak kabul edilmiştir.Bulgular: Ankete katılan öğrencilerin Fonseca anketine göre %72,3 'ünde herhangi bir düzeyde TMD prevalansı saptanmıştır. Erkek öğrencilerde TMD prevalansı %64,4 iken kız öğrencilerde %78,7 'dir. Hastane Anksiyete ve DepresyonÖlçeğine göre öğrencilerin %50,9'unun anksiyete açısından, %58,9'unun depresyon açısından risk altında olduğu belirlenmiştir. Şiddetli TMD skorları en yüksek 4. sınıfta görülürken, depresyon ve anksiyete riski en yüksek sınıfın da 4. sınıf olduğu belirlenmiştir.Sonuç: Elde edilen bulgular Atatürk Üniversitesi Diş hekimliği Fakültesi öğrencilerinde yüksek oranda TMD, anksiyete ve depresyon prevalansı olduğunu göstermektedir. Yüksek TMD skoru olanlarda, yüksek depresyon ve anksiyete skorları bulunmuştur. Bu sonuç anksiyete ve depresyonun TMD ile pozitif ilişkili olduğunu göstermektedir.
