OD is prevalent, and difficulties with mastication are common in those with TMDs. The interventions used were diverse, with varying objectives and disparate levels of evidence supporting their efficacy within this cohort. Further research should address the epidemiology of TMD-related OD, evidence-based interventions, and the promotion of collaboration across the disciplines responsible for managing TMD-related OD (eg, speech and language therapy, oral and maxillofacial surgery, dentistry, restorative dentistry, orthodontics, oral medicine).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
