Summary

Temporo-Mandibular Disorders (TMD) are the reason for consultation on more common in maxillofacial. However, there is no consensus on their care. For a long time, Rehabilitative management of the TMD was content to treat only the symptoms.

No validated score does not allow to evaluate globally the malfunctions at the origin of the TDM, as well as the symptoms and functional discomfort that result. The creation of such a tool would standardize the physical examination of the physiotherapist.

This is a functional evaluation scale including 2 subparts: an examination of functional etiologies and an assessment of symptoms. At the same time, a self-questionnaire was created to gather the patient's feelings and evaluate the impact of the TMD on his life daily.

The outcome of this research would be to create a score to track the patient's progress during the reeducation, trying to rate the different factors according to their number and severity. This tool would then make it possible to objectify the impact of rehabilitation treatment on the factors etiological and verify the effectiveness of rehabilitation protocols.
