Abstract

Temporomandibular Disorders (TMD) are among the most common musculoskeletal conditions, second only to chronic lower back pain. This book provides an in-depth look at TMD, particularly in children and adolescents, examining its multifactorial etiology, including occlusion abnormalities, parafunctional habits, trauma, and psychological factors. The book highlights the prevalence of TMD in various age groups, with a particular focus on adolescents aged 12–15, and discusses how demographic factors such as ethnicity and socio-economic status influence the occurrence of TMD. It emphasizes the importance of early diagnosis, proper examination, and management to reduce pain and improve the quality of life for affected individuals.
