Relationship between temporomandibular disorders and orthodontic treatment: a literature review

Abstract: All studies cited in this literature review reported that orthodontic treatment did not provide risk to the development of signs and symptoms of TMD, regardless of the technique used for treatment, the extraction or non-extraction of premolars and the type of malocclusion previously presented by the patient. Some studies with long-term follow-up concluded that orthodontic treatment would not be preventive or a treatment option for TMD.

“…The same conclusion is detected by several other recent reviews 23,[44][45][46][47][48] . Nevertheless, the correct occlusion and the muscle equilibration, which are achieved with the orthodontic treatment, may prevent or reduce the risk factors of the TMDs [49][50][51][52] .…”

“…This changed in 1987 when a US court awarded substantial damages to a patient who sued their orthodontist for ‘causing’ TMD . Since this time, successive investigations have demonstrated that there is insufficient evidence to suggest that orthodontic therapy prevents, causes or treats TMD . However, as Michelotti and Iodice pointed out in their review of this topic, the absence of evidence is not the same as the evidence of absence …”

“…There is controversy over the role of dental malocclusion 47,48 and orthodontic treatment [49][50][51] in the development of TMD. Thus, it may be appropriate to suggest that the development of future research on the relationship between stress and TMD should exclude from its study population those individuals who may have orthognathic issues or who have undergone orthodontic treatment.…”
