Cross-sectional study reveals painful yawning links to temporomandibular disorder, suggesting early detection indicators.
The study demonstrates a significant association between TMD and painful yawning, suggesting that painful yawning could serve as a potential indicator for early TMD detection, which warrants further validation. Additionally, factors such as sex and yawning frequency were found to increase the likelihood of painful yawning, irrespective of TMD status.
