Abstract
Our previous case-control studies showed that associations with both pain sensitivity and cardiac autonomic function are profound in chronic TMD cases. Here we show that some measures of enhanced pain sensitivity contribute modestly to the risk of developing TMD whereas autonomic dysregulation appears to confer little or no risk for TMD incidence.
