Temporomandibular disorders (TMD) are characterized by periauricular pain, clicking during condylar movements, and a restricted mouthopening capacity. The relationship between bulimia nervosa (BN) and TMD has seldom been studied, although the excessive jaw movements that accompany binge eating and vomiting aggravate the symptoms of TMD. TMD should be noted as a complication of BN. This paper describes a young woman with BN who was later found to have TMD.
