title: [Comparative analysis of the quality of life of patients with painful temporomandibular joint dysfunction and with temporomandibular joint dysfunction associated with rheumatoid arthritis].
abstract: The quality of life was assessed in 36 patients with painful dysfunction of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) and 73 patients with TMJ dysfunctions suffering from rheumatoid arthritis. A more significant negative time course of the parameters was observed in patients with rheumatoid arthritis and more positive shifts in patients with isolated TMJ dysfunction without rheumatoid arthritis.
