The research was conducted in dental clinic at Seoul Metropolitan Children’s Hospital - the major municipal hospital for the disabled. The outpatients’visiting patterns to the dental clinic were analyzed, compared to other medical departments. For further research related to TMD, the questionnaires were given to the subjects.
Material and methods: Data for visiting patterns/frequencies was collected from patient records of 1419 outpatients who visited the dental clinic at Seoul Municipal Children’s Hospital in 2011. Then TMD-related questionnaires were given to 127 outpatients who were over 13 years old.
Results:1. 219 out of 1419 patients (15.4%) who visited the dental clinic at Seoul Municipal Children’s Hospital in 2011 were the disabled. 2. Compared to normal patients, disabled patients visited the dental clinic and rehabilitation medicine department more frequently.(p<0.05) However, there was no apparent difference in visiting frequencies between the disabled and the normal patients in the psychiatric department.(p=0.3237) 3. 44% of the TMD-related questionnaire subjects responded that they often consumed relatively hard or tough food, 53% answered they had unilateral chewing habit, 3% had bruxism, and 12% had clenching habit.
Conclusion: In the dental clinic at Seoul Municipal Children’s Hospital, 19% of outpatients over 13 years old had TMD such as clicking and pain.
