The analysis of residents’ training needs in musculoskeletal disorders of the masticatory system is required in the department, because patients suffering from temporomandibular disorders and referred by general dentists constitute a significant proportion of patients consulting the service. Sufficient skills are thus required to provide appropriate care to these patients. Objective: The aim of our work is to survey residents’ training needs in «Temporomandibular Dysfunction» practicing within the prosthodontics department of the Dental Consultation and Treatment Center of Casablanca. Method: Qualitative descriptive analysis of the initial training requirements in ‘management of temporomandibular dysfunctions« among eleven residents in the department of fixed prosthodontic in Casablanca. Each participant responded to a questionnaire during a brainstorming session and an FGP grid has been done. Results: This work has highlighted a real need for training residents in temporomandibular dysfunction, especially for dysfunction of muscular origin and during the post-occlusal split stabilization period. Conclusion: Knowing the type of dysfunction (muscle or joint) is essential because the effectiveness of the diagnosis is a decisive step in the treatment. Within the context of the analysis of the training requirements for residents of the fixed prosthodontic department Casablanca in temporo-mandibular disorders, our preliminary survey should be regarded as a preliminary study.

Abstract
The analysis of residents’ training needs in musculoskeletal disorders of the masticatory system is required in the department, because patients suffering from temporomandibular disorders and referred by general dentists constitute a significant proportion of patients consulting the service. Sufficient skills are thus required to provide appropriate care to these patients. Objective: The aim of our work is to survey residents’ training needs in «Temporomandibular Dysfunction» practicing within the prosthodontics department of the Dental Consultation and Treatment Center of Casablanca. Method: Qualitative descriptive analysis of the initial training requirements in ‘management of temporomandibular dysfunctions« among eleven residents in the department of fixed prosthodontic in Casablanca. Each participant responded to a questionnaire during a brainstorming session and an FGP grid has been done. Results: This work has highlighted a real need for training residents in temporomandibular dysfunction, especially for dysfunction of muscular origin and during the post-occlusal split stabilization period. Conclusion: Knowing the type of dysfunction (muscle or joint) is essential because the effectiveness of the diagnosis is a decisive step in the treatment. Within the context of the analysis of the training requirements for residents of the fixed prosthodontic department Casablanca in temporo-mandibular disorders, our preliminary survey should be regarded as a preliminary study.
