Executive summary of the Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular Disorders for clinical and research applications.
CONCLUSIONS: The DC/TMD provides a questionnaire for the pain history in conjunction with validated clinical examination criteria for diagnosing the most common TMDs. In addition, it provides Axis II questionnaires for assessing psychosocial and behavioral factors that may contribute to the onset and perpetuation of the patient’s TMD. PRACTICAL IMPLICATIONS: The DC/TMD is appropriate for use in clinical and research settings to allow for a comprehensive assessment of patients with TMD.

Abstract This cross-sectional study was designed to evaluate the effect of sleep bruxism, awake bruxism and parafunctional habits, both separately and cumulatively, on the likelihood of adolescents to present painful TMD. The study was conducted on a sample of 1,094 adolescents (aged 12-14). The presence of painful TMD was assessed using the Research Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular Disorders, Axis I.
