“…Other symptoms that presented significant frequency in our study were neck pain 3,4 and teeth sensitivity 28,30 . The high incidence of otological symptoms in the present sample was in agreement with the literature 4,5,6,8,9,27,28 , in which ear fullness prevailed over the symptom of otalgia 2,12,30 . Tinnitus was as frequent as ear fullness.…”

“…Otological symptoms are frequent in patients with temporomandibular joint disorders (TMJD) [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9] , and dental treatment contributes to their remission [10][11][12][13][14][15] . However, the origin and possible correlations between otological symptoms and other manifestations of the problem are not completely explained.…”

The otologic symptoms are frequents in temporomandibular disorder patients, and studies are needed to elucidate the involved mechanisms. Aim: The objective of the present study was to investigate the association of otology symptoms (otalgia, tinnitus, ear fullness) with otologic findings, the other temporomandibular disorder signs and symptoms, and parafunctional habits. Study Design: Clinical prospective. Material and Methods: 27 temporomandibular patients from Occlusion Clinic of the Dental School of Ribeirão Preto -University of Sao Paulo, answered a questionnaire which included questions about signs and symptoms of temporomandibular disorder and parafunctional habits; they were submitted to otorhinolaryngological and audiologic examination. The data obtained were analyzed through Binomial Test, Exact Test of Fisher and Pearson Correlation, with p value < 0.05. Results: Otologic symptoms were presented in 88.88% of the patients (59.26% presented otalgia, 74.07 tinnitus and 74.07% ear fullness). There was no significance between the otologic symptoms and audiologic findings. There was significant association between otologic symptoms and jaw movements or functions (speaking, opening, closing the mouth). There was significant correlation between grade of otologic symptoms and grade of other temporomandibular disorder signs/symptoms, and between the symptom ear fullness and number of the parafunctional habits. Conclusion: The results provide additional support for the notion that a relationship between temporomandibular disorder and otologic symptoms does exist. In temporomandibular disorder patients, the stomatognathic system alterations, such as orofacial pain and functional difficulties, were statically associated with otologic symptoms.

“…These symptoms are also associated with shoulder and back pain, (Bernstein et al, 1969;Hellstrom et al, 2000) which can generate referred orofacial symptomatology by involving the anterior, lateral and suboccipital cervical muscles in maximum occlusion. (Curtis, 1980;Edmeads, 1988;Cooper & Cooper, 1993;Mense, 1993;Santander et al, 1994;Keersmaekers et al, 1996;Dos Reis et al, 2000).…”

Theories on Otic Symptoms in Temporomandibular Disorders: Past and Present

SUMMARY:For many years otic symptoms have been closely observed in TMD clinical practice. This review includes trials that meet eligibility criteria in the field of otic symptoms diagnosed and treated by a stomatognathic focal point. The aim is centered on the implications of the debated cause-effect connection between otic symptoms and TMD offering a probable bond between the TMJ, ear and adjacent structures. The rationalization is based on an embryological and anatomical approach that offers explanations on the otic pathogenic mechanisms symptoms interconnected with TMD. The accompanying reciprocity among disciplines of odontology and otolaryngology is brought together by TMD and otic referred mutual symptomatology as is showed in multiple trials. This research is an attempt that targets the integration of these two health specialties in the diagnosis and treatment of this type of population.
