Abstract

Objectives: To access the knowledge of undergraduate and postgraduate students of the dental college on basic anatomy, physiology, clinical examination, and pathology of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ).

Materials and methods: A total of 610 undergraduate and postgraduate students of dental college, were included in this study. The questionnaire was pretested for validation and distributed online through Google forms.

Results: A pairwise comparison showed that the percentage of correct answers for interns significantly differed from that of IV Bachelor of Dental Surgery (P=0.050) and postgraduate students (P=0.048) (below average: up to 6 correct answers, good: 7-11 correct answers, excellent: 12 or more correct answers).

Conclusion: TMJ diseases are common in daily life but frequently go undiagnosed and untreated due to a lack of clinical expertise. This demonstrates the necessity of providing instructions that give students in-depth knowledge and abilities for TMJ issues in clinical practice.

知识之爪：牙科培训中的颞下颌关节见解分析--一项准实验研究。

目的了解口腔医学院本科生和研究生对颞下颌关节（TMJ）的基本解剖学、生理学、临床检查和病理学的认识：本研究共纳入了 610 名口腔医学院的本科生和研究生。问卷经过预试验证，并通过谷歌表格在线发放：成对比较结果显示，实习生的正确答案百分比与口腔医学四级本科生（P=0.050）和研究生（P=0.048）的正确答案百分比有显著差异（低于平均水平：6个正确答案以下，良好：7-11个正确答案，优秀：12个或更多正确答案）：颞下颌关节疾病在日常生活中很常见，但由于缺乏临床专业知识，常常得不到诊断和治疗。这表明，在临床实践中，有必要为学生提供指导，使其深入了解颞下颌关节问题并具备相关能力。
