Özet:Introduction: Oral health is essential for general well-being, affecting both aesthetics and function and emotional life. During adolescence, parafunctional habits such as bruxism can cause damage to the temporomandibular joint and the stomatognathic system. It is crucial to detect and treat these habits early to prevent longterm complications and ensure adequate oral health. Objective: The aim of this article is to highlight the importance of treating parafunctional corrections at both the oral and neural levels, ensuring comprehensive and personalized care for each patient. Methodology: A comprehensive review of studies published between 2020 and 2024 was carried out, using databases such as Google Scholar, PubMed, Elsevier and SciELO. Result: Bruxism and other parafunctional habits, such as thumb sucking or mouth breathing, can seriously affect the stomatognathic system, causing tooth wear and TMJ disorders. Early intervention is crucial to prevent long-term damage, and multidisciplinary treatment, including bite plates, relaxation techniques, and orthodontics, can improve symptoms. Conclusion: Parafunction corrections require a comprehensive approach that includes both dental treatment and management of muscle tension and neurological disturbances.
