Abstract
Objective: To characterize individuals with TMD treated in the Orofacial Pain Service, during the period from 2020 to 2023, regarding signs and symptoms of headaches. Methods: This was a retrospective cross-sectional observational documentary study. The sample consisted of sixty medical records of individuals with TMD and signs and symptoms of headache seen in the Dentistry course at the Federal University of Ceará. Data were tabulated using descriptive statistics. Results: It was found that the most affected individuals are brown women, aged 30 years or older. In the majority of the sample, the headaches started more than a year ago, were described as moderate to severe, lasting constant or lasting hours, bilateral or of varying locations and most frequently described as pressing/pressing. The most prevalent previous headache diagnoses were Tension-Type Headache and migraine and half of the sample had headache secondary to TMD. Conclusion: Our findings corroborate those described in the literature and suggest the need for public health policies aimed at early diagnosis of headaches in individuals with TMD.
