Abstract

The aim of this study is to get the description on TMJ dysfunction as well as its symptoms including clicking, crepitation, jaw opening restriction and muscle pain in children. Thus the result can be used as an input to the program of TMJ dysfunction prevention and treatment for the children in SDN Sirnasari Village, Ciptasari Pamulihan Subdistrict, Sumedang District. This study is descriptive study using survey technique. The samples for the study are 79 children in elementary school taken by random sampling technique with stratification. TMJ dysfunctions with clicking and crepitation symptoms were detected by palpating and using a stethoscope. Deviation, deflection, and jaw opening restriction symptoms were found out by visual examination. Whereas pain in TMJ supporting muscles was also detected by palpating. The result of the study shows that the number of children developing TMJ dysfunction with symptom of clicking is 34 children (43.03%), crepitation are 4 children (5.06%), deviation are 13 children (16.45%), deflection are 17 children (21.51%), jaw opening restriction are 49 children (62.02%), and pain in TMJ supporting muscles are 69 children (87.34%). From the study, it can be concluded that the highest frequency of TMJ dysfunction symptom in SDN Sirnasari children is a pain in TMJ supporting muscles. It is followed by jaw opening restriction, clicking, deflection, deviation, and the last is crepitation.

Abstract

One of the temporomandibular joint disorders that mostly occurs is disc displacement with reduction. Disc displacement that causes the displacement of condyle position can be evaluated by using radiograph. The Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT-3D) is a radiograph equipment which is able to capture the condyle position from many directions. This research was aimed to see the condyle position in patients with disc displacement with reduction symptoms. This research was conducted to 11 patients with symptoms of disc displacement with reduction and 3 patients without symptoms of disc displacement with reduction as the counterpart. What was conducted to the sample was the radiographic imaging using CBCT-3D radiography, followed by measuring the joint space distance in the sagittal and coronal directions. The result of the research was analyzed using the T-test. Statistically, the result of the test showed a significant difference ( = 0.05) between patients with disc displacement with reduction symptoms and the patients without symptoms, in sagittal and coronal views. The conclusion led to the difference in condyle positions in patients with the disc displacement with reduction and patients without the symptoms which meant there was a condyle position displacement that caused the distance alteration in joint space in sagittal and coronal directions.

Abstract

Background: Extensive tooth loss may impair masticatory function, esthetics, and quality of life, and can accelerate alveolar bone resorption. Overdentures represent a prosthodontic treatment option that preserves remaining teeth or root remnants as supporting structures, thereby improving prosthesis stability and maintaining the supporting tissues.Objective: To report the management of extensive tooth loss using tooth- and root-supported overdentures, with consideration of clinical conditions and patient preferences.Case Report: A 53-year-old male patient presented with a chief complaint of difficulty in mastication due to extensive tooth loss in the maxillary and mandibular arches. Clinical and radiographic examinations revealed the presence of several teeth and root remnants with periodontal conditions that were still suitable for preservation. The treatment was performed in stages, including periodontal and endodontic therapy, extraction of teeth with poor prognosis, and prosthodontic rehabilitation using removable partial dentures combined with bare-root overdentures and non-retentive short coping overdentures.Results: After prosthesis insertion, the patient demonstrated improved masticatory function, comfort, and overall satisfaction. Clinical evaluation showed good adaptation, retention, and stability of the overdentures, with no complaints of pain or soft tissue irritation.Conclusion: Tooth- and root-supported overdentures are an effective treatment option for patients with extensive tooth loss when suitable abutments remain. This approach provides favorable functional and psychological outcomes when supported by appropriate preliminary treatment and regular maintenance.
