The objective was to estimate the prevalence of temporomandibular disorders (TMD), in students of the Faculty of Dentistry.
This was a descriptive, observational, prospective, cross-sectional study. The study included 18 to 28-year-old students from the Faculty of Dentistry of the Universidad Juárez del Estado de Durango, México, attending the 1st to 8th semester of the 2018-A school year in whom the simplified Fonseca anamnestic index (sFAI) was applied to characterize TMD. The sample size was determined using the Epi InfoTM software, obtaining a total sample size of 263 individuals. The R Studio (2019) statistical package was used to describe the data.
The prevalence of TMD in the study population was 63%, with a mild disorder being the most prevalent in 44%. The Chi2 test showed statistically significant differences between sex and TMD (p = 0.001) and between sex and 5 items of the sFAI: item 4 (p= 0.001), item 7 (p= 0.001), item 8 (p = 0.021), item 9 (p= 0.001) and item 10 (p = 0.001).
There is a high prevalence of TMD in the student population of the Faculty of Dentistry of the Universidad Juárez del Estado de Durango, Mexico, with females presenting a higher prevalence of the presence and manifestation of symptoms in these disorders.
评估牙科学院学生颞下颌关节紊乱病（TMD）的患病率。
这是一项描述性、观察性、前瞻性横断面研究。研究对象为墨西哥杜兰戈州华雷斯自治大学牙科学院18至28岁的学生，他们参加了2018 - A学年的第1至8学期，应用简化的丰塞卡问诊指数（sFAI）来描述TMD。使用Epi InfoTM软件确定样本量，共获得263名个体的样本。使用R Studio（2019）统计软件包来描述数据。
研究人群中TMD的患病率为63%，其中轻度紊乱最为常见，占44%。卡方检验显示性别与TMD之间（p = 0.001）以及性别与sFAI的5项指标之间存在统计学显著差异：第4项（p = 0.001）、第7项（p = 0.001）、第8项（p = 0.021）、第9项（p = 0.001）和第10项（p = 0.001）。
墨西哥杜兰戈州华雷斯自治大学牙科学院学生中TMD的患病率较高，女性在这些疾病的症状出现和表现方面患病率更高。
