[PMID: 32962244 PMCID: PMC7554700 DOI: 10.3390/diagnostics10090724] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/11/2020] [Revised: 09/16/2020] [Accepted: 09/18/2020] [Indexed: 12/26/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: The aim of this study was to investigate the association between temporomandibular disorder (TMD) and migraine through a longitudinal follow-up study using population data from a national health screening cohort. Methods: This cohort study used data from the Korean National Health Insurance Service-Health Screening Cohort from 2002 to 2015. Of the 514,866 participants, 3884 TMD patients were matched at a 1:4 ratio with 15,536 control participants. Crude models and models adjusted for obesity, smoking, alcohol consumption, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, fasting blood glucose, total cholesterol, and Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) scores were calculated. Chi-squared test, Kaplan–Meier analysis, and two-tailed log-rank test were used for statistical analysis. Stratified Cox proportional hazard models were used to assess hazard ratios (HR) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for migraine in both control groups. Results: The adjusted HR for migraine was 2.10 (95% CI: 1.81–2.44) in the TMD group compared to the control group, which was consistent in subgroup analyses according to age, sex, and Kaplan–Meier analysis. Conclusions: This study demonstrated that TMD patients have a higher risk of migraine. These results suggest that dentists can decrease the risk of migraine in TMD patients by managing TMD properly.

Puthukkudiyil JS, Bhutia O, Roychoudhury A, Bhatt K, Yadav R, Bhalla AS. Does Repositioning of Temporomandibular Joint Disc With Bone Anchors Provide Better Clinical Outcomes Than Conventional Disc Plication Procedures for Anterior Disc Displacements Without Reduction in Patients Refractory to Nonsurgical Treatments? J Oral Maxillofac Surg 2020; 78:2160-2168. [PMID: 32777247 DOI: 10.1016/j.joms.2020.07.013] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/04/2019] [Revised: 07/11/2020] [Accepted: 07/13/2020] [Indexed: 11/19/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE Although open temporomandibular joint arthroplasty with discopexy is a common treatment for patients with anterior disc displacements without reduction (ADDWo) unresponsive to medical management, there are no studies comparing disc repositioning with bone anchors and conventional discopexy procedure. The purpose of the study was to compare the efficacy between disc repositioning with bone anchors and the conventional discopexy procedure for ADDWo of temporomandibular joint refractory to medical management. PATIENTS AND METHODS A randomized controlled trial was conducted in patients with ADDWo. The primary objective was to compare the improvement in mouth opening (primary outcome variable) between the 2 treatment (primary predictor variable) groups-disc repositioning with bone anchors versus conventional disc plication. Secondary outcome variables were pain measured by visual analog scale, lateral excursions, and position of the disc evaluated by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Other variables of interest were age, gender, and duration of symptoms. The parameters were evaluated at preoperative, postoperative day 1, and 1-, 6-, and 12-month postoperative period. Categorical variables were compared with χ2 test and continuous variables with analysis of variance and adjusted for multiple comparisons with Bonferroni test. RESULTS The study sample comprised 14 patients (7 in each group) with MRI-proven ADDWo. Statistically significant differences were found in the improvement of mouth opening between the 2 groups, showing better improvement with bone anchors (14.42 ± 5.96 vs 7.57 ± 7.25 mm; P < .05). The reduction in visual analog scale also showed statistically significant difference with better pain reduction achieved with bone anchor (4.57 ± 1.61 vs 3.28 ± 0.75; P < .05). There was no statistically significant difference in lateral excursions and postoperative position of the disc evaluated by MRI between the groups at the 12-month follow-up period. CONCLUSIONS Disc repositioning with bone anchors provides better clinical outcomes in terms of maximal mouth opening and pain scores compared with conventional disc plication.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is well innervated by braches of the trigeminal nerve. The temporomandibular joint disorders (TMD) can cause neural-inflammation in the peripheral nervous system (PNS) at the site of injury, or compression, and may have systemic effects on the central nervous system (CNS). Neural-inflammation causes elevations in cytokine expression and microglia activation. When the site of injury, or compression is treated, or relieved, neural inflammation is reduced. These changes can be seen and measured with fMRI brain activities. METHODS For this study, patients with comorbid TMD and systemic/neurologic conditions were compared using clinical diagnostic markers, inflammatory, pain, tissue destruction enzymatic biomarkers, and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) activity of the brain, with and without a custom-made dental orthotic. RESULTS Our results showed a correlation between the clinical diagnosis of the pathological TMJ, biomarkers and the fMRI study. There was a marked elevation of biomarkers in samples taken from TMJ of patients who were clinically diagnosed with TMD. The fMRI study of TMD patients showed an abnormal hyper-connected salience network and a diminished blood flow to the anterior frontal lobes when they did not wear their customized dental orthotics. CONCLUSIONS Our findings highlight the importance of TMJ-CNS connections and use of fMRI as an investigative tool for understanding TMD and its related neurological pathologies.

Abstract
AIMS Despite the fact that self-medication associated with temporomandibular disorders is clinically quite common and is considerably harmful, there is no instrument in the literature to assess this practice. The aim of this study was to construct and validate a questionnaire to study this important issue specifically. METHODS After completing the literature review, semi-structured interviews, focus group and pretest, the first version of the instrument resulted in 62 questions. After face validity testing, pretest and the necessary corrections and changes, the instrument had 41 questions and was administered for validation to a sample of 110 patients diagnosed with TMD according to the RDC/TMD (1992) criteria. RESULTS According to factor analysis, seven questions with loadings below 0.30 were removed, with the final version consisting of 34 questions. The analysis of internal consistency and temporal stability showed values of 0.844 for Cronbach's alpha coefficient and a Kappa coefficient of 0.810, respectively, indicating that the instrument presents sufficient reliability and reproducibility for its proposed objective. After validation, with the ultimate goal of classifying patients according to the degree/intensity of self-medication, a classification was proposed that allowed the discrimination of results into three distinct groups regarding self-medication exposure: mild, moderate or severe, based on the self-medication raw point score. CONCLUSION The results of the instrument validation process showed that it has suitable properties for evaluating the practice of self-medication in patients with TMD.

Abstract
Objective: We studied whether primary care temporomandibular disorder (TMD) patients reporting different levels of pain-related disability differ in terms of comorbid pains, general health conditions and quality of life.Material and methods: Consecutive TMD pain patients (n = 399) seeking treatment in primary care completed a questionnaire on comorbid pains and their interference and the Finnish version of the RAND-36-item quality of life questionnaire. Medical diagnoses confirmed by doctors were recorded. The patients were classified according to the Graded Chronic Pain Scale (GCPS) of the Research Diagnostic Criteria for TMD (RDC/TMD). The patients were classified: no disability group (0 disability points), low disability group (1-2 disability points) and high disability group (3-6 disability points).Results: Compared to patients in the no-disability group, patients in the high- and low-disability groups reported more comorbid pain conditions (p < .001), and experienced these as more intense and interfering more with daily life (p < .05). Patients in the high-disability group reported more general health-related medical diagnoses than patients in the no-disability group (p < .05). Furthermore, patients with low or high pain-related disability indicated poorer quality of life in all RAND-36 subscales than those with no disability (p < .05).Conclusions: The findings suggest that GCPS-related disability scoring can be used as a simple screening instrument to identify TMD patients with different degrees of health burdens.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Myogenic temporomandibular disorders (MTMD) frequently coexist with other clinical conditions in the same individual. In the last decades, several authors have analyzed these comorbidities looking for the origin of this overlapping. Objetives: The aim of this study was to perform a comparative anaylisis between a group of patients with MTMD and a control group of dental patients without dysfunctional pathology to assess whether there are significant differences in the presence of systemic medical comorbidities between the two groups. MATERIAL AND METHODS Restrospective epidemiological analysis, based on medical questionnaires in a group of 31 patients, women, aged from 24 to 58 (average 39.96 years), diagnosed with MTMD (Masticatory Myofascial Pain), with a control group with the same number of individuals, gender and age range to evaluate if there is a significant statistical difference in the presence of medical comorbidities in this group of patients with MTMD and if they are in a higher risk of suffering different pathological conditions. RESULTS It was found that the group affected by MTMD presented many more associated medical conditions than the control group: health changes during the last year, medical evaluations and treatments, presence of pain, sinus disease, tinnitus, headache, joint pain, ocular disorders, fatigue, dizziness, genitourinary disorders and xerostomia among others; and they were also in a higher risk to suffer other pathological entities as headaches and articular pain. CONCLUSIONS These results reinforce our hypothesis that MTMD belong to a group of medical conditions triggered by a loss of equilibrium of the individual's Psycho-Neuro-Endocrine-Immune (PNEI) Axis that produces alterations in the response against external stimuli in some genetically predisposed individuals. It is, therefore, necessary to change the way of diagnosing and managing these individual's medical conditions, being mandatory to look from a more multidisciplinary perspective than the one we are currently offering.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to estimate the prevalence of signs and symptoms of temporomandibular disorders (TMD) in patients with primary headaches attended in a tertiary neurology ambulatory. METHOD Authorized by the Ethics Committee, the present cross-sectional study was conducted with a random sample of patients screened for orofacial pain and primary headaches at a tertiary hospital in Northeast of Brazil. RESULTS The sample consisted in 42 patients with primary headache, 59.5% male. The prevalence of > 6 TMD signs and symptoms was 54.8%. In those patients with migraine TMD was present in 71.4% and in tension-type headache in 38.1% (p = 0.030; OR = 4.1). TMD was related to the clinical status of headache associated or attributed to medication overuse (p = 0.001). CONCLUSION TMD has a high prevalence in patients with primary headaches (54.8%). Special attention must be given to patients with migraine and headache associated or attributed to medication overuse.

Abstract
Background Temporomandibular pain disorder (TMD) is a common pain condition in the face. People with TMD report multiple pain comorbidities. The presence of fibromyalgia and migraine in people with TMD is associated with an increase in TMD pain intensity and duration. However, data on the relationship between increasing number of pain comorbidities and TMD pain are rare. The aims of this study were: firstly to evaluate the extent to which increasing number of comorbidities is associated with increasing TMD pain intensity and duration; and secondly to evaluate the extent to which the presence of specific comorbidities is associated with increasing TMD pain intensity and duration. Methods The sample included 180 people seeking TMD treatment at Boston and Montreal clinics. TMD was diagnosed using the Research Diagnostic Criteria for TMD. A Numerical Pain Rating Scale assessed TMD pain intensity and participants provided their TMD pain duration in a study questionnaire. The comorbidities of migraine, chronic fatigue syndrome, irritable bowel syndrome, interstitial cystitis and restless leg syndrome were diagnosed by 5 validated diagnostic questionnaires. The associations were analyzed by linear regression, controlling for confounders. Results There was a positive association between the number of comorbidities present and TMD pain intensity (p < 0.01) and between the number of comorbidities present and TMD pain duration (p < 0.01). Also, the presence of migraine was positively associated with TMD pain intensity (p < 0.01) and the presence of chronic fatigue syndrome was positively associated with TMD pain intensity (p < 0.05) and with TMD pain duration (p < 0.01). When TMD patients were separated into groups, these associations did not change for the myofascial pain group, whereas in the non-myofascial pain group, the relationship between number of comorbidities and TMD pain duration was the only one still present. Conclusion This study shows that the number of comorbidities is positively associated with TMD pain duration and intensity. The presence of specific conditions, such as migraine and chronic fatigue syndrome, is associated with an increase in TMD intensity and duration.

Abstract
Headache and facial pain - in particular, temporomandibular disorders (TMDs) - are very prevalent conditions in the general population. TMDs are defined as a collection of symptoms and signs involving masticatory muscles, the temporomandibular joints (TMJs), or both. The pain reported by TMD patients is typically located in the muscles of mastication, in the preauricular area, or in the TMJs. In many cases, headaches and facial pain will occur in the same patient. Much of the research relative to the relationship of these disorders focuses on statistics of association and prevalence data. This review will provide a brief description of the types and classifications of orofacial pains (OFPs), as well as point to relevant research describing the commonalities and potential comorbid nature of these maladies. Finally, several recent papers describing morphologic changes to the brain in headache and TMD individuals will be discussed in an effort to stimulate further research into the potential common pathophysiologic mechanism that may explain the comorbid nature of these disorders.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study compared, both quantitatively and qualitatively, the self-reported medication usage between an adult female orofacial pain population and a comparison group. STUDY DESIGN Eighty-seven subjects from both an orofacial pain center (OPC) and undergraduate dental clinic (UDC) completed a standardized medical history questionnaire. Both groups had a similar distribution with regard to age. The number of medications and medication categories were compared between the two groups. Statistical analysis used the Student t-test, Fisher's exact tests, Pearson's chi2 tests, and calculated odds ratios. RESULTS The number of pain and non-pain medications, and the number of medication categories endorsed by OPC subjects was significantly higher compared with the UDC group. CONCLUSION Adult female orofacial pain subjects report greater overall and higher rate of medication use, which was not limited to only the analgesic/narcotic categories, than the comparison group.
