Signs and symptoms of temporomandibular disorders in children with different types of headache

Headache is a common symptom among children and teenagers. Both bruxism and muscle and joint tenderness have been found in children with headache. Children with migraine headache report more temporomandibular disorder (TMD)symptoms than do those with tension-type headache. The aim of the present study was to investigate the association of different types of headache with TMD and sex in children. Altogether 297 randomly selected schoolchildren aged 13–14 years participated in a blind study setting. There were no statistically significant differences between the headache groups with regard to TMD signs, although the migraine and migraine-type headache groups had the highest percentage of subjects with more severe TMD signs. Nor were there any statistical differences between sexes or between the headache groups with regard to subjective symptoms of TMD. The present results with children differed from earlier results with adults. First, no association was found between tension headache and TMD, and, second, no sex difference in TMD children was observed at this age.
