Temporomandibular Disorder in Domestic Waste Collectors: Cross‐Sectional Study
In this sample of domestic waste collectors, moderate to severe TMD correlated with alcohol dependence, whereas mild TMD showed associations with age, psychosocial factors, and parafunctional habits. However, TMD did not exhibit a direct association with domestic waste-collecting work. Thus, addressing physical and mental health concerns within this occupational cohort may enhance overall well-being.
