Methodology: field study, descriptive and correlational, 85 patients evaluated with the index Helkimo were examined (to determine the degree of TTM) and Odontogram (to determine tooth loss).
Results: The prevalence of TMD was 100% at different levels. It is concluded that most have mild dysfunction with 50.9%, followed by 36.4% with moderate dysfunction after severe dysfunction I with 9.1% and finally severe dysfunction II with 3.6%.
To assess the degree of dysfunction, the Chi-square test of independence of factors, thus there is evidence that tooth loss was not significantly related (p = 0.084 X2 = 15,266) was used. Conclusion: tooth loss levels not influence the development of temporomandibular disorders,
