Associations Between Temporomandibular Pain and Biobehavioral Variables in Dental Students in Response to an External Stressor
CONCLUSION: Exam periods initiate readily measurable changes in the psychologic status of many students, as well as alterations in their temporomandibular pain. Higher levels of anxiety and oral behaviors during non-exam periods seem to be predictors for persisting pain.PMID:37975781 | DOI:10.11607/ofph.3239 (Source: Journal of Orofacial Pain)

Temporomandibular Disorders and Fibromyalgia Prevalence: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
CONCLUSIONS: Despite variable prevalence rates among the included studies, the present review suggests that TMDs and CWP/FMS frequently coexist, especially for individuals with painful myogenous TMDs. The clinical, pathophysiologic, and therapeutic aspects of this association are important for tailoring appropriate treatment strategies.PMID:37975782 | DOI:10.11607/ofph.3260 (Source: Journal of Orofacial Pain)

Practitioner/Practice- and Patient-Based Factors Contributing to Dental Practitioner Treatment Recommendations for Patients with Pain-Related TMDs: Findings from the National Dental PBRN
CONCLUSIONS: Practitioners used a wide range of treatments for patients with few consistent patterns. The propensity to use TMD signs, symptoms, and diagnoses when making treatment recommendations suggests a tendency to conceptualize patients using the biomedical model. Infrequent referral to nondental providers suggests a lack of availability of these providers, a misunderstanding of the complexity of TMDs, and/or discomfort with assessment of psychosocial factors. Implications include the need for comprehensive training in the assessment and management of TMD patients during dental school and participation in TMD continu...

Discovery of Biomarkers for Myogenous Temporomandibular Disorders Through Salivary Metabolomic Profiling: A Pilot Study
CONCLUSIONS: The results of this study demonstrate that NMR-based metabolomics coupled with multivariate data analysis is a powerful method for the metabolomic profiling of patients with TMDs of muscular origin (ie, local myalgia).PMID:37975784 | DOI:10.11607/ofph.3353 (Source: Journal of Orofacial Pain)

The Physical Symptom Scale-8: Psychometric Characteristics of a Short-Form Version of the PHQ-15 and its Use in TMD-Related Assessment and Research
CONCLUSION: The PSS-8 presented good psychometric properties and performed similarly to the PHQ-15. It holds promise as the "de facto" shortened version of the PHQ-15 for TMDs and related work.PMID:37698952 | DOI:10.11607/ofph.3187 (Source: Journal of Orofacial Pain)
