RESUMO
RESUMO Objetivo Avaliar a condição dentária e a dimensão vertical em pacientes portadores de DTM, bem como a idade e origem da DTM. Metodologia Realizou-se um estudo descritivo, observacional de corte transversal, com uma amostra de trinta pacientes com DTM, diagnosticado pelo Research Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular Disorders (RDC/TMD). Esta amostra foi determinada através de estimativas de atendimento, desta forma, uma amostra de conveniência. A associação entre o gênero, idade, dimensão vertical e condição dentária com DTM foram verificadas através do teste estatístico qui-quadrado, com intervalos de confiança de 95%. Resultados Constatou-se que 26 pacientes eram do sexo feminino e 4 do sexo masculino. Quinze sujeitos apresentaram idade inferior a 36,5 anos. Quanto a origem da DTM, 19 sujeitos tinham desordem articular, e 11 muscular. Determinou-se que não houve associação estatisticamente significante entre as variáveis independentes com a DTM. Conclusão Os fatores etiológicos analisados isoladamente parecem não influenciam de forma única no desenvolvimento da DTM, mas poderão atuar em conjunto com outros fatores, já que a sua causa é multifatorial.(AU)
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the dental condition and the vertical dimension in patients with TMD, and the age and origin of the DTM. Methods Was performed a descriptive study, observational, cross-sectional, with a sample of thirty patients with TMD, diagnosed by Research Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular Disorders (RDC/TMD). This sample was determined based on estimates the service thus a sample of convenience. The association between gender, age, vertical dimension and dental condition with TMD were verified using the chi-square statistical test with 95% confidence intervals. Results It found that 26 patients were female and 4 males. Fifteen subjects presented aged below 36.5 years. How much the origin of the DTM, 19 subjects had articular disorder, and 11 muscle disorder. Has been determined that there was no statistically significant association between the independent variables with the DTM. Conclusion The etiological factors analyzed in isolation do not seem to influence in a unique way in the development of TMD, but may act together with other factors, because the cause is multifactorial.(AU)

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the dental condition and the vertical dimension in patients with TMD, and the age and origin of the DTM. METHODS: Was performed a descriptive study, observational, cross-sectional, with a sample of thirty patients with TMD, diagnosed by Research Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular Disorders (RDC/TMD). This sample was determined based on estimates the service thus a sample of convenience. The association between gender, age, vertical dimension and dental condition with TMD were verified using the chi-square statistical test with 95% confidence intervals. RESULTS: It found that 26 patients were female and 4 males. Fifteen subjects presented aged below 36.5 years. How much the origin of the DTM, 19 subjects had articular disorder, and 11 muscle disorder. Has been determined that there was no statistically significant association between the independent variables with the DTM. CONCLUSION: The etiological factors analyzed in isolation do not seem to influence in a unique way in the development of TMD, but may act together with other factors, because the cause is multifactorial.
