Abstract Objective The aim of this study was to determine the relationship of malocclusion with the presence and severity of temporomandibular disorders (TMDs) in children. Materials and Methods A clinical examination was performed in 87 patients (from 4 to 14 years of age) who attended the dentistry clinics of Universidad del Valle. Results The 77 patients studied had malocclusions; 55 patients had TMD and 67.3% were female. The most frequent symptom of TMD was articular unilateral noise with 33.8%, followed by pain in at least one masticatory muscle with 26%. TMJ pain was observed in 24.7% of the patients. There was a statistically significant relationship between the presence and severity of TMD with type of dentition and transverse malocclusion, respectively. Conclusion The presence of TMD in children with malocclusion presented in a high frequency. TMD depends on the type of dentition and its severity is dependent on transverse malocclusion.

Objective: (1) To determine the percentage of symptoms and signs of temporomandibular disorders (TMD); (2) To determine the rate of occlusal traits; (3) To determine the relationship between the signs of TMD and malocclusion traits. Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive study on 201 22-to 24-year-old students studying in Hue University Hospital. Study consists of two main parts: Interviews collected information about symptoms of pain and dysfunction of TMD during 6 months ago. Clinical examination of pain and dysfunction signs through the following components: (1) range of jaw motion, (2) the mouth opening path, (3) temporomandibular joint (TMJ) sounds, (4) and (5), muscle and/or TMJ pain by palpation; (6) malocclusion traits. Results: 72.6% of students had at least one TMD symptoms or signs. There were more students having signs (24.8%) detected by clinical examination than ones being aware of symptoms (8.0%). There was significant correlation between TMJ sounds and molars relationship (p = 0.049); between tooth malposition and TMJ sounds (p = 0.002). Conclusions: Prevalence of TMD signs and symptoms was high and some malocclusion traits were related to TMD. Key words: Temporomandibular disorders, maloclussion traits

Introduction. Some clinicians believed that mandibular deviation leads to facial asymmetry and it also had a correlation with temporomandibular disorders (TMDs). Posteroanterior (PA) cephalogram was widely reported as a regular record in treating facial asymmetry and craniofacial anomalies. The objective of this study was to analyze the relationship of menton deviation in PA cephalogram with temporomandibular disorders (TMDs) symptoms. Materials and Methods. TMJ function was initially screened based on TMD-DI questionnaire. PA cephalogram of volunteer subjects with TMDs (n=37) and without TMDs (n=33) with mean age of 21.61±2.08 years was taken. The menton deviation was measured by the distance (mm) from menton point to midsagittal reference (MSR) horizontally, using software digitized measurement, and categorized as asymmetric if the value is greater than 3 mm. The prevalence and difference of menton deviation in both groups were evaluated by unpaired t-test. Result. The prevalence of symmetry group showed that 65.9% had no TMDs with mean of 1,815 ± 0,71 mm; in contrast, the prevalence of asymmetry group showed that 95.5% reported TMDs with mean of 3,159 ± 1,053 mm. There was a significant difference of menton deviation to TMDs (p=0.000) in subjects with and without TMDs. Conclusion. There was a significant relationship of menton deviation in PA cephalogram with TMDs based on TMD-DI index.

In developing the relationship of the normal mode solution for a vibrating rod to the pyrotechnic shock problem, a detailed analysis is presented using the Timoshenko theory to obtain the transient lateral response of a cylindrical rod with free ends to a short duration half sine pulse of either moment or shear applied to one end. Two different series solutions are used and the rates of convergence are compared near the boundary. Results are compared with experimental data.
