Abstract

The aim of this study was to identify possible associations of nutritional anthropometric patterns with morphologic and functional characteristics of the masticatory system as well as with salivary biomarkers. Three studies were developed and reported in three chapters. Samples consisted of health subjects aged between 15 and 30 years. Chapter 1: To compare body characteristics and composition and to verify if nutritional anthropometric patterns are associated with temoromandibular dysfunctions (TMD). 110 females and 60 males were classified into Control, Muscle disorders (MD) or Disc displacements (DD) groups according to the Research Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular Disorders (RDC/TMD). Anthropometric measurements recorded were weight, height and perimeters of waist, abdomen and hip. Body composition was evaluated with values of body fat percentage (BF%) as well as with values of fat, muscle, bone and residual mass. Pain intensity (CPI) and nonspecific physical symptoms including facial pain (NSPSP) were considered. ...Note: The complete abstract is available with the full electronic document. (AU)
