Various kinds of mind stress are prevalent in our society today. Especially, in the current society, number of patients who suffered from mind stress have been increased. And to our interest, many of them tended to show dysfunction in stomatognathic system. We have reported in the previous report that psychosomatic factors not only occlusal factors played an important role in the function of stomatognathic system.
If the stomatognathic dysfunction patients were treated without the care of psychosomatic factors, effect of the treatment may sometimes be resulted in slow or uncertain cure. So we must analyze the psychosomatic condition of the patients in order to diagnose and treat them effectively.
Therefore we studied the relationship between the psychosomatic factors and the social condition such as age, sex, type of job, marital status. The personality test was done among the general patients, who belonged to three different companies, using a questionare such as CMI test in regard to general patients.
The results indicated that the difference of social condition developed different tendency in psychosomatic condition. This suggestion that psychosomatic factors must be taken care in order to diagnose and treat the patients.
