Abstract in brief

  • This study compares the education, awareness, and knowledge of Filipino dentists and physical therapists regarding temporomandibular disorders (TMDs) using a structured online questionnaire.
  • Results indicate that while both groups have high awareness of TMDs, their understanding of the condition’s pathophysiology is low, and those with more experience or prior TMD training tend to be more aware.
  • The study suggests improving educational curricula and professional training programs to enhance actual knowledge and management skills related to TMDs among these healthcare professionals.
