Impact of orthodontic treatment and the morphological state of occlusion on the development of temporomandibular joint dysfunction
Abstract
There is currently no solid evidence that orthodontic treatment directly contributes to any risk or preventative strategies for TMJ dysfunction. However, joint dysfunction may result from improper orthodontic treatment. Further research is required, including in-depth analysis, biomechanical modeling, and long-term medical care. Orthodontists must take into account each patient's unique characteristics and carefully design their treatment to minimize the development of TMJ dysfunction.
