In this study, the most prevalent temporomandibular joint signs and symptoms were temporomandibular joint clicking 73.6% with no significant difference between females and males. In comparison, dislocation is the least prevalent and the most prevalent muscle spasm was the masseter muscle with a percentage of 50.4%) while the sternocleidomastoid muscle is the least one.
