ABSTRACT
Introduction: Maximum mandibular opening is the vertical distance between the Incisal edges of the upper and lower central incisors (ICS and ICI). The maximum mandibular opening of an adult on average is 40 mm, from the age of seven years.
Objective: To determine the prevalence of maximal mandibular opening associated with the degree of temporomandibular dysfunction in patients, clinical postgraduate in orthodontics, Universidad Juárez Autónoma de Tabasco.
Methodology: Observational, descriptive, cross-sectional, retrospective study with non-probabilistic quantitative method.
Material and methods: A total of 59 patients who attended the UJAT orthodontic clinic in the period from February to May 2017.
Results: The most frequent maxillary opening of the mandible is 45 mm, the most frequent degree of temporomandibular dysfunction is mild.
Conclusion: The majority of patients have a mild degree of temporomandibular dysfunction and the maximum mandibular opening decreases as the age increases. The female gender has a higher incidence of decreased mandibular maxillary opening.
