Area of Science:

  • Dentistry
  • Orthodontics
  • Temporomandibular Joint Disorders

Context:

  • The relationship between orthodontic treatment and temporomandibular joint (TMJ) status is a topic of ongoing research.
  • Understanding this link is crucial for patient care and treatment planning in orthodontics.

Purpose:

  • To systematically review the international literature on the association between orthodontic interventions and temporomandibular joint (TMJ) conditions.
  • To evaluate whether orthodontic treatment influences the prevalence or severity of TMJ disorders.

Summary:

  • The authors analyzed five studies that compared the TMJ status of individuals who underwent orthodontic treatment with control groups.
  • No significant differences in TMJ status were observed between the orthodontic treatment group and the control group across the reviewed literature.
