    Introduction: The term Temporomandibular Disorders (TMD) is a collective term used to describe a range of clinical problems involving the muscles of mastication, the temporomandibular joints (TMJ) and associated structures, or both. Objective: To evaluate quality of life, functional capacity and pain in women with TMD. Methods: We studied 60 female patients diagnosed with TMD, divided into three groups with 20 patients each: Group 1 (control), Group 2 (TMD, orofacial pain free) and Group 3 (TMD and orofacial pain ). The patients answered the instruments to assess quality of life (SF-36), functional ability (HAQ-20) and pain (NRS). Results: There was significant difference between groups in SF-36 physical functioning (p = 0.000), pain (p = 0.000), functional capacity (p = 0.004), general health (p = 0.000), vitality ( p = 0.000), emotional (p = 0.000), social (p = 0.000) and mental health (p = 0.000)., the HAQ-20 (p = 0.000) and the NRS (p = 0.000). In all the assessments group 3 presented worse results compared to groups 1 and 2. Conclusions: Women with TMD and orofacial pain had decreased quality of life and functional capacity.
