Bruxismo relacionado con los trastornos temporomandibulares.

This project aims to identify the relationship between bruxism and temporomandibular joint problems (TMJ). It was created through a bibliographic review, based on the PRISMA parameters. (1) It also investigates the influencing factors between bruxism and TMD, determine the prevalence of bruxism in individuals with TMD, and analyze the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying the relationship between bruxism and TMD. Bibliographic articles were used from databases that went through exhaustive selection criteria and were published between 2016 and 2023, with 65 sources of literature. The result was that the relationship between bruxism and TMD is based on the functional effect it generates on the bone, cartilaginous, and muscular structures of the TMJ, since excessive and repetitive pressure is exerted on the teeth that modify the joint structures. The factors that influence bruxism and MTP also require a broad approach, because we are talking about emotional problems such as depression, anxiety, lack of sleep, abnormalities in bone or muscle development during development or growth. Regarding the prevalence of bruxism in people with MTP, it indicates that it is 5% for those individuals who suffer from daytime bruxism and 16.5% for nocturnal bruxism. Finally, we understand that the examination of the alteration in the physiological mechanisms that are generated in this relationship is based directly on alterations at the level of the motor neurochemistry of the trigeminal nerve, where neurotransmitters are modified and therefore behavioral patterns are generated, that is, the masticatory muscles opt for excessive movements with high tensions and pressures.
