Abstract:
Temporomandibular disorder is a disease caused by various factors such as trauma, mental stress, occlusal factors, and parafunc-tional habits. Among them, many scholars have been interested in the relationship between occlusion and temporomandibular disorder for a long time and have conducted numerous studies, but controversy over this relationship continues to this day. Based on previous studies, this review clearly establishes the relationship on occlusion and temporomandibular disorders and presents the direction for follow-up research by summarizing the limitations of current studies.
