title: A year of chronic TMPDS: relating patient symptoms and pain intensity.
abstract: Pain intensity among 136 women with TMPDS was compared with the signs and symptoms of TMPDS. Most masticatory muscle pain was related to TMPDS pain intensity. Clicking, restricted mandibular range and evidence of tooth grinding were not related to pain intensity.
