Aims: To assess the differential item functioning (DIF) of the Jaw Functional Limitation Scale (JFLS) due to gender, age, and language (English vs Spanish). Methods: JFLS data were collected from a consecutive sample of 2,115 adult dental patients from HealthPartners dental clinics in ...
AIMS: To develop the Jaw Functional Limitation Scale (JFLS), comprising 3 constructs and a global scale, based on a preliminary instrument, and to investigate content validity of the overall functional limitation construct, reliability, and generalizability. A temporomandibular disorders (TMD) patient ...
. Passive ROM (PROM) was determined using the adhesive scale on the TheraBite. Measures were taken at baseline, each intervention or consultation, and the end of care; ADL participation and caregiver burden were measured at the end of intervention. For subjects with DMD, AROM remained unchanged...
Minimizing the pain a patient perceives has value on a number of fronts: humanitarian, physiologic, functional, and economic. Progress made in this area of medicine was begun byanesthesiologistsin the 1980s when they began to organize services to treat surgical inpatients immediately following operati...
The oral and pharyngeal jaw of cichlid fishes are a classic example of evolutionary modularity as their functional decoupling boosted trophic diversification and contributed to the success of cichlid adaptive radiations. Most studies until now have focus
The study of jaw functional limitations should be primarily focused on painful TMD. Objectives The impact of TMD pain characteristics (source, chronicity and intensity) on jaw functional limitations were evaluated using Jaw Functional Limitation Scale (JFLS). Methods This cross‐sectional study ...

Baseline and 1-year follow-up assessment included using the Jaw Functional Limitation Scale, self-reported symptoms and signs related to jaw function. The clinical examination of jaw function included mandibular mobility, dental occlusion, and tenderness in the temporomandibular joints and masticatory ...
