Abstract:

How to approach a disease related to unique experiences and don’t dissociate relation-ship, living conditions and society? Temporomandibular Disorder (TMD) is a group of chronic disorders that are difficult to diagnose and provide treatment. As some similar conditions, such difficulties may aggravate the negative impact on health. This study seeks to identify experiences TMD, aiming to contribute to reflection and management practices for the issue. A qualitative otobiographical study was developed, using interviews with people undergoing TMD treatment. With a nietzschean premise that the process of subjectivation is feed by ex-periences, the method seeks to identify traces of these experiences through the text producedthe interviews. Patients\' experiences were grouped into five trenches: appointment; fru-strations; hidden; sadness, fear and death; and destinations. A variety of negative effects have been described through the first three stages. The last one — Destinies — points to well-being feelings. We highlight the value of the interactive space (professional-user), which expresses itself as a power for creating innovative and sensitive ways of dealing with health-disease processes.
