“…The center of attention of their involvement starts when it is understood that anatomically they are muscles of the middle ear although they are really muscles of mastication because they are modulated by motoneurons coming form the trigeminal motor nucleus (V3). (Campbell et al, 1982;Myrhaug;Eckerdal, 1991;Ciancaglini et al, 1994;Greene, 2001;Travell & Simons, 2002) TMD high muscular activity can be exacerbated originating in this nucleus with its possible otic consequences from the tensor tympani and tensor veli palatine muscles participation.…”

SUMMARY:For many years otic symptoms have been closely observed in TMD clinical practice. This review includes trials that meet eligibility criteria in the field of otic symptoms diagnosed and treated by a stomatognathic focal point. The aim is centered on the implications of the debated cause-effect connection between otic symptoms and TMD offering a probable bond between the TMJ, ear and adjacent structures. The rationalization is based on an embryological and anatomical approach that offers explanations on the otic pathogenic mechanisms symptoms interconnected with TMD. The accompanying reciprocity among disciplines of odontology and otolaryngology is brought together by TMD and otic referred mutual symptomatology as is showed in multiple trials. This research is an attempt that targets the integration of these two health specialties in the diagnosis and treatment of this type of population.

“…1 It is a common condition and, in approximately 25% of cases, TMDs are characterized by floating and progressive pain due to inflammation. 2 Inflammatory processes in the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) increase the amount of free radicals, which can be either the source or the perpetuating factor in such processes.…”

“…In reality, though, many medical conditions arise where severe pain is reported but no specific pathology can be identified. These include conditions like chronic widespread pain and fibromyalgia, temporomandibular disorders, and chronic back pain (Aaron, Burke, & Buchwald, 2000;Epstein et al, 1999;Gatchel, 2002;Gatchel, Stowell, Wildenstein, Riggs, & Ellis, 2006;Gracely, Petzke, Wolf, & Clauw, 2002;Greene, 2001;Gremillion, 2000;Kight, Gatchel, & Wesley, 1999). When no pathology could be reliably identified, the disorder was termed psychogenic pain (i.e., the pain has a psychological basis).…”
