Abstract

Objectives: To determine the risk factors associated with temporomandibular disorders (TMD) in children and adolescents attending the pediatric dentistry service of the University of Cartagena - Colombia. Methodology: The sample consisted of 105 participants. Prior to the signing of informed consent by the legal representatives, a survey was applied to measure the sociodemographic variables. The diagnosis of TMD was obtained with axis I of the RDC/TTM, and the oral habits and behaviors questionnaire was also applied. The radiographic analysis was standardized to evaluate the variables skeletal malocclusions, growth pattern, Baccetti cervical maturation stage, and cervical curvature analysis according to Penning; postural attitude was measured with the photographic model of body posture. The statistical analysis was performed with the STATA program version for Windows 14, using a univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis, with the chi2 test, assuming a value of (p< 0.05) for significance. Results: the model obtained for the explanation of TMD was the crude one showing statistical significance for the variables canine class, oral habits/behaviors, postural attitude and the variable age (p< 0.004). The statistical strength was low (R2=14%) Conclusion: The negative impact of class II canine malocclusion in children and adolescents with TMD is highlighted, being considered the variable with the highest weight within the regression coefficient, which was significantly associated with oral behaviors, forward position of the mandible, inadequate postural attitude and the age group ≥ 6 years.
