Objectives : The goal of this study is to investigate how occupational stress affects temporomandibular disorders (TMD), dry mouth and oral symptoms. Methods : For this study, workers from 5 areas were selected and the survey was carried out from June 1st to 30th, 2012. A total of 410 questionnaires were analyzed. Results : The analysis of the structural model shows that occupational stress has no significant influence on temporomandibular disorder and dry mouth symptoms, but does affect other oral symptoms. The results also reveal that dry mouth symptom and temporomandibular disorder both have a significant effect on oral symptoms. Conclusions : Oral symptoms and job stress appeared to directly and indirectly influence the psychological and social factors of job stress. A systemic investigation on the improvement of oral health in workers is urgently required.
