Methods Data were collected from a structured questionnaire and a clinical examination of a random sample of almost 2000 adults, 20–79‐year‐old, in Troms County in Northern Norway. Results Women had a higher prevalence of all self‐reported and clinical signs of pain and dysfunction in the temporomandibular complex compared to men. For both genders, sounds from the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) upon clinical examination was the most common symptom, followed by pain to palpation of jaw muscles.

Young women had a higher prevalence of self‐reported headache and jaw‐ and face pain compared to middle‐aged and elderly women. TMD‐related symptoms of pain were significantly associated with poor self‐reported general health and correlated with OHQoL as assessed by the oral health impact profile 14 questionnaire.
