Abstract
Cem questionários foram distribuídos em consultórios odontológicos da cidade de Ribeirão Preto – SP, com o intuito de detectar a porcentagem de profissionais que tratam as DTMs, bem como os tipos e as características dos tratamentos empregados. Os resultados obtidos mostraram, entre outras coisas, que 98% dos entrevistados já receberam pacientes com DTMs, 80% deles acreditam na eficiência de métodos conservadores, embora muitos ainda julguem que as terapias definitivas sejam mais indicadas. Concluiu-se que ainda predominam controvérsias a respeito da etiologia e do tratamento das DTMs e que todo dentista deve estar atualizado e baseado em princípios científicos.
