Relationship between toothclenching and temporomandibular disorders

Toothclenching is multifactorial condition and it is responsible for generating an overload on the teeth, periodontium, muscles and temporomandibular joints (TMJ). Overload or hyperactivity in the joint can promote joint dysfunction that causes painful symptoms. A parafunctional habit such as the toothclenching involves a big context in the organism and may represent a predisposing factor as well as an exacerbation of temporomandibular dysfunction and chronic pain development. Furthermore, it has consequences on the survival of restorative and rehabilitation treatments.
