Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The goal of this observational study is to learn about the correlation between missing posterior teeth and vertical dimension cephalometric measurements with temporomandibular disorders in a sample of adult Egyptian subjects in. The main questions it aims to answer are:

  • Is there a correlation between missing posterior teeth and temporomandibular disorders?

  • Is there a correlation between vertical dimension cephalometric measurements and temporomandibular disorders? Participants will be asked for the following:-

  • to give their phone numbers & it will be collected through the orthodontic department patient's database ensuring complete confidentiality.

  • to fill Personal data chart (name, age, date of birth, mobile number, address).

  • to receive Clinical examination to determine number of missing teeth.

  • to receive Clinical examination to diagnose TMD using the DC/TMD.

  • to do Lateral cephalometric radiograph to measure the vertical dimension.
