    Author: Kaye LB, Moran JH, Fritz ME.
    Journal: J Periodontol; 1979 Feb; 50(2):59-65. PubMed ID: 284114.
    Abstract:
    A large group of patients (236) was examined for Myofascial Pain Dysfunction Syndrome. The symptoms of the patients were recorded, using as a guide the classic parameters of pain and tenderness to the head and neck muscles and temporomandibular joint, joint sounds, and limited function. Our basic data were similar to those of other studies. The significant difference of this study is the detail with which the symptoms were studied. The relationships of suspected etiology and symptoms were compared and discussed. This paper is the second of a three part series. The first part dealt with the demographic profile of our patient population. The third part will present the data dealing with treatment modalities and relief.
