“…They may concern the spine, shoulder girdle, chest, pelvis, thigh joints and lower extremities including knee joints, ankle joints and metatarsus [231,232]. Furthermore, defects per se can be singular or multiple [233][234][235][236][237][238]. An early diagnosis and prompt adoption of remedial measures in the form of a corrective surgery, kinaesthetic rehabilitation or other physiotherapeutic methods may contribute to the restoration and then strengthening of right patterns of physical activity [239].…”

Although it enables a quick evaluation, medical diagnostics of the human myofascial-skeletal system is not always used to its full capabilities. This often hampers the objective assessment of a dysfunction and limits treatment options. Dysfunctions of the stomatognathic system, of different aetiology, are becoming more prevalent. Many scientific studies are in to relationships between organs and systems of the human body that can cause dysfunctions of the temporomandibular disorders. Studies investigating correlations between a myofascial-skeletal disorder and temporomandibular disorders are to be found in the literature. To achieve a good understanding of aetiology of these dysfunctions, a holistic view of a patient is advisable, which takes into consideration the fact that the temporomandibular joint is an integral part of the whole body. This study is a review of the literature, supported by own examples on investigating the relationship between myofascial-skeletal disorders and a temporomandibular disorder, which, in the light of current medical knowledge, is attributed to the phenomenon of biotensegrity. A conclusion has been put forward on the basis of 136 scientific reports that a dependency exists between the said dysfunctions.
