This complex condition can include a variety of clinical manifestations, such as jaw pain, limited mobility, clicking or crunching sounds in the joint when moving, as well as headaches and neck pain. The TMJ is involved in various functions, such as chewing, swallowing and speech, so its dysfunction can significantly impair the patient&#039;s quality of life. These disorders can be both functional and structural in nature, and often require a multidisciplinary approach for diagnosis and treatment.<\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_85

of the disease and interesting historical facts<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The history of studying temporomandibular joint disorders goes back to ancient civilizations. In ancient Egypt, there were cases of jaw disorders, and Greek and Roman texts also mention jaw pain and movement disorders. In the 19th century, the observation of TMJ disorders began to develop more actively, especially after the advent of anatomical studies and imaging techniques. An interesting fact is that in the early 20th century, many cases of diseases were misdiagnosed and interpreted as neuralgia or radiculitis. In the 1980s, there was a significant breakthrough in understanding the etiology and pathogenesis of TMJ, which led to the formation of a modern concept of diagnosis and treatment.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"%D0%AD%D0%BF%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BC%D0%B8%D0%BE%D0%BB%D0%BE%D0%B3%D0%B8%D1%8F\"><\/span>Epidemiology<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>According to statistics, temporomandibular joint disorders occur in 20-30% of the population at different points in history. According to research, about 10% people in the world experience constant or periodic pain in the TMJ area, which makes this disease quite common. Mostly young and middle-aged women suffer from it, which may be due to hormonal changes and lifestyle habits. One of the recent studies showed that more than 50% women aged 18 to 50 years have noticed symptoms of TMJ disorders at least once.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"%D0%93%D0%B5%D0%BD%D0%B5%D1%82%D0%B8%D1%87%D0%B5%D1%81%D0%BA%D0%B0%D1%8F_%D0%BF%D1%80%D0%B5%D0%B4%D1%80%D0%B0%D1%81%D0%BF%D0%BE%D0%BB%D0%BE%D0%B6%D0%B5%D0%BD%D0%BD%D0%BE%D1%81%D1%82%D1%8C_%D0%BA_%D0%B4%D0%B0%D0%BD%D0%BD%D0%BE%D0%BC%D1%83_%D0%B7%D0%B0%D0%B1%D0%BE%D0%BB%D0%B5%D0%B2%D0%B0%D0%BD%D0%B8%D1%8E\"><\/span>Genetic predisposition to this disease<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Genetic studies indicate that genetic predisposition may play a role in the development of TMJ disorders. Signals have been identified for the involvement of genes related to muscle tone regulation systems, as well as connective tissue components. Mutations in the COL1A1 and COL3A1 genes responsible for collagen formation may cause changes in joint structure. Also, the link between polymorphisms of genes associated with inflammatory processes and the development of TMJ is confirmed by various studies.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"%D0%A4%D0%B0%D0%BA%D1%82%D0%BE%D1%80%D1%8B_%D1%80%D0%B8%D1%81%D0%BA%D0%B0_%D0%B2%D0%BE%D0%B7%D0%BD%D0%B8%D0%BA%D0%BD%D0%BE%D0%B2%D0%B5%D0%BD%D0%B8%D1%8F_%D0%B4%D0%B0%D0%BD%D0%BD%D0%BE%D0%B3%D0%BE_%D0%B7%D0%B0%D0%B1%D0%BE%D0%BB%D0%B5%D0%B2%D0%B0%D0%BD%D0%B8%D1%8F\"><\/span>Risk factors for the development of this disease<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>TMJ disorders can develop under the influence of many risk factors, which can be classified as physical, chemical, and psychological.
