Interest of Behavioural Reeducation in Dysfunctions of Masticatory Apparatus. Relations Between Parafunctions and Dysfunctions of Mastixatory Apparatus

Completed

• Conditions: Temporomandibular Disorders

• Registration Number: NCT01535378
• Lead Sponsor: Rennes University Hospital

Brief Summary

If etiologies of temporomandibular disorders (TMD) are various, parafunctions become more and more important. Treatment of patients presenting TMD is based on conservative and reversible therapeutics. The behavioural reeducation of these patients which aims at decreasing their parafunctions is a treatment often performed.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Assessment of pain based on the analogical visual scale	1 year	To know the incidence of a treatment which is unique, reversible and performed in first intention: behavioural reeducation in the evolution of clinical signs of TMD : pain; disc deplacement with reduction, limitation or mandibular deviation during mouth opening.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Assessment of behavioural reeducation	1 year	Interest of diagnosis criteria of investigation on temporomandibular disorders.
Amplitude of mouth opening, mandibular deviation, joint clicking or crepitations,disc deplacement with reduction	1 year	Evaluation of parafunctions as an etiological factor of dysfunctions of masticatory apparatus.
