Σύνοψη	The Research Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular Disorders (RDC/TMD) is a comprehensive, evidence-based diagnostic system for identifying and classifying temporomandibular disorders (TMD)—a group of painful and functional conditions affecting the jaw joint, muscles of mastication, and related structures. Originally developed in 1992 by Schiffman and colleagues and updated to the Diagnostic Criteria for TMD (DC/TMD) in 2014, the RDC/TMD is the international gold standard for TMD diagnosis in research and clinical practice. It combines structured patient history, pain questionnaires, and standardized clinical examination to reliably diagnose muscle disorders, intra-articular disorders, and headache associated with TMD.	The OHIP-14 is a 14-item, validated instrument measuring the impact of oral conditions on quality of life and functional well-being. Developed by Slade in 1997, it is a shortened form of the original 49-item OHIP and has become the gold standard for assessing oral health-related quality of life in clinical research and practice. It captures patient-centred outcomes across functional, psychological, and social dimensions.
