Abstract(s)
Temporomandibular disorders consist of a group of pathologies that affect the temporomandibular joint, masticatory muscles and other components of the stomatognathic system (Clemente et al., 2015; Santos & Fragelli, 2017) .Temporomandibular disorders can be associated with lifestyle and occupation and they are notably becoming more frequent in instrumentalists musicians (Glória et al., 2018). Objectives: To determine the frequency of orofacial and temporomandibular region symptomatology in musicians, as well as to determine the existence of differences between instrumentalists groups (wind, stringed and percussion). The secondary objective is to analyse the relation between potential risk factors, such as the number of years of instrumental practice experience, the average number of practice hours per week and the type of instrumental practice as a profession or a hobby in the different domains evaluated.
