TINNITUS PREVALENCE IN INDIVIDUALS WITH TEMPOROMANDIBULAR DISORDER:
observational study
Keywords:
Temporomandibular Disorder, Tinnitus, Hearing SymptomsAbstract
Introduction: Temporomandibular dysfunction (TMD) is a set of clinical manifestations related to the masticatory muscles and those associated with the face. The balance of the structures and functions of the stomatognathic system depends on the proper functioning of the temporomandibular joint. The unbalance may lead to a dysfunction of this joint and cause several signs and symptoms, which may be associated with hearing symptoms, such as tinnitus. Objective: This research investigated the prevalence of tinnitus in individuals with temporomandibular dysfunction. Methodology: It was of the observational, cross-sectional, and quantitative type (a palavra “type” precisa ser excluída). The sample was composed for convenience, by adult individuals seen at the Odontology and Speech Therapy School Clinics of CEUMA University. For the diagnosis of temporomandibular dysfunction, we used the Portuguese version of the Reasearch Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular Disorders (RDC/TMD) questionnaire: axis 1. For pain assessment, the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) was applied. Tinnitus was measured by applying the Tinnitus, Pain and PGS Assessment Protocol. The data were tabulated for descriptive and inferential analysis (significance level of 5%). Analyses were performed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (IBM SPSS, version 21.0, IBM Corporation, Armonk, New York, USA). Results: The prevalence of tinnitus for individuals with TMD was 64.4%. There was a statistically significant association between TMD and tinnitus, as well as the degree of tinnitus nuisance (p < 0.001). The side of the tinnitus had a significant relationship with the side of the TMD (p < 0.001). Conclusion: We concluded that individuals with TMD showed a higher prevalence of tinnitus than individuals without TMD.
