Temporomandibular (TMD) online calculator and screening tool

 

This tool has been created as part of 2024 guideline Management of painful Temporomandibular disorder in adults NHS England Getting It Right First Time (GIRFT) and the Faculty of Dental Surgery of the Royal College of Surgeons of England by Beecroft E, Palmer J, Penlington C, Avery L, Aggarwal V, Chase M, Davies S, Gerber B, Jagger R, Harrison S, Horton M, Jones L, Kalantzis A, Lie S, McKenna G, McMillan R, Morton M, Murphy E, Renton T, Thayer T, Weden A, Durham J.

To help patients screen for TMD the guideline development group chair has created an online calculator that will assess the level of psychosocial distress (Patient Health Questionnaire 4, PHQ-4), and baseline and post-treatment pain intensity (Characteristic Pain Intensity, CPI). The results of the TMD online calculator can be shown to healthcare practitioners for evaluation.
