| Abstract | ||
| Temporomandibular disorder (TMD) is a broad term that encompasses number of clinical problems including the temporomandibular joints, the masticatory musculature and related structures, or both. The etiology of TMD is ambiguous since the signs and symptoms which exist in patients with natural teeth may also being observed in edentulous patients. Thus, TMD is a multifactorial problem with varying symptoms combinations and rates. Relationship between removable complete dentures and tempromandibular joint disorder in different gender and age groups. A total of 30 patients (15 female and 15 male) who submitted to Prosthodontics Department, College of Dentistry, Al-Mustansiriyah University to make a new complete denture. The age of participants ranges from (40-80) years with the mean age (65.8) years. Two clinical examiners conducted the patient’s examination; the first examiner takes on a questionnaire to identify the TMD symptoms signs and. Clinical examination of the patients was assessed through part I, II of research diagnostic criteria pre and post one and two months of applying the prosthesis. The clinical evaluation of prosthesis done by the second clinical examiner related to (retention, stability, fitness, occlusion and centric relation) was evaluated twice at predetermined intervals of 1 and 2 months after construction and delivery of denture. Evaluation performed by using Dawson's bimanual technique and recorded within clinical case sheet for complete denture records. The present study shows that the highest frequency of TMD obtained in age group of 70-80 years old followed by age group of 60- 69 years old at all intervals, internal derangement (ID frequency) significantly higher in females than male patients (p=0.02). There is significant statistical difference regarding the Myofacial pain dysfunction (MPD) frequency according to the time of using the dentures, those patients with Diabetes Mellitus (DM) formed the highest percentage (39.1%) of those whom presented with MPD followed by those with Hypertension (HT) (32%) and those with history of HT and DM represent (17.4%) only The results also illustrated that prosthesis properties (retention, stability, fitness, occlusion and centric relation) show significant relation with TMDs improvement post one and two months. Most patients with complete denture perceived improvement in the sign and symptoms of TMDs | ||
