Abstract

Amaç: Bu incelemenin amacı Erzurum ve çevresinden temporomandibular eklem disfonksiyonu şikâyeti ile kliniğimize başvuran hastaları yaş, cinsiyet, semptom ve disfonksiyonun türü açısından değerlendirmektir.

Bulgular: Bizim sonuçlarımıza göre TMED şikayeti ile kliniğimize başvuran hastaların büyük çoğunluğu 16-37 yaş arasındaki bireylerden oluşmaktaydı ve kadındı. En belirgin semptom ağrıydı. Bunu sırasıyla mandibular fonksiyonlardaki değişiklikler ve eklem sesleri takip etti. Hastaların büyük çoğunluğu tek başına veya disk deplasmanlarının eşlik ettiği çiğneme kas problemleri nedeniyle kliniğimize müracaat etmişlerdi.
