Summary

The aim of this study is to examine temporomandibular dysfunctions, jaw functional limitation, cervical mobility and craniovertebral angles and possible relations between individuals with cervical pain and individuals without cervical pain and to compare the this four variables between the two groups.

Conditions

  • Temporomandibular Disorder

Interventions

OTHER

Neck Pain and Disability Scale (NPDS)

The Turkish version of the Neck Pain and Disability Scale (NPDS), developed by Wheeler et al., was used for individuals with neck pain. The severity of neck pain is evaluated on a 5-point Likert scale; where 0 indicates "no pain" and 4 indicates "very severe pain". The score is higher in those with upper extremity symptoms.The cut-off value of this scale was set to 15 to detect disability-related neck pain.The cut-off value is mandatory to evaluate a patient or a particular group of patients for clinically significant neck pain by distinguishing it from insignificant pain

OTHER

Fonseca Anamnestic Index (FAI)

It is a questionnaire consisting of 10 questions, including pain during the period, parafunctional habits, movement restriction, clicking, malocclusion, emotional stress.In this study, clinical signs relevant to each severity category of Fonseca's anamnestic index were used to detect the frequency of symptoms and to characterize the symptoms and clinical findings of TMD.The Turkish version of Fonseca's Anamnestic Index (FAI) questionnaire was used to assess the symptom severity.

OTHER

Evaluation of Jaw Functional Limitation

The Jaw Functional Limitation Scale (JFLS) was developed as an 8-item scale for general functional limitation in the jaw. In the light of the obtained items and supporting psychometric data, it has been expanded and re-developed to include the verbal and non-verbal communication limitations that occur in a 20-item tool16 JFLS-20 is a tool with three structure contents (chewing, vertical mobility of jaw state and emotional and verbal statement) to evaluate functional state.Difficulty performing a determined task is graded from 0 (without limitation) to 10 (severe limitation). Higher scores are a more serious sign of functional limitation.
