Journal Article

The reliability and validity of self-reported temporomandibular disorder pain in adolescents.

TL;DR: Very good reliability and high validity were found for the self-reported pain questions in this study, and these questions can be used to screen for TMD pain in adolescent populations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Factors associated with the temporomandibular disorder, pain dysfunction syndrome (PDS): Manchester case-control study.

TL;DR: It seems inappropriate to consider PDS in isolation and future research should adopt a multidisciplinary approach to OFP, with factors from many domains, including local mechanical factors, psychological and co-morbidities supported.
Journal ArticleDOI

Persistent orofacial muscle pain.

TL;DR: A novel descriptive term; 'persistent orofacial muscle pain' (POMP) is suggested and current evidence that supports the hypothesis that the induction of POMP involves the interplay between a peripheral nociceptive source in muscle, a faulty central nervous system component and decreased coping ability is reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI

The utility of panoramic imaging of the temporomandibular joint in patients with temporomandibular disorders

TL;DR: Clinical findings may be of greater relevance leading to the diagnoses associated with TMD and to determination of the need for additional imaging rather than the use of panoramic imaging in all patients with facial pain and TMD.
