Abstract

Introduction: temporomandibular disorders include a group of problems involving the temporomandibular joint, masticatory tendons and nearby structures. These disorders are related to dental and medical variations, such as psychological alterations.

Objective: to describe the association between stress and the development of temporomandibular disorders in adults.

Methods: a literature review was performed following PRISMA principles. Research published from 2017 onwards was taken into account, in journals indexed in PubMed/MedLine, ScienceDirect and LILACS databases, employing a search formula using keywords combined with each other by Boolean terms.

Results: a total of 930 articles were obtained, of which 15 were selected for the study, the rest were excluded after the screening process. It was found that there is a relationship between stress and temporomandibular disorders, where factors such as anxiety and depression intervened.

Conclusions: considering the existence of a relationship between stress and temporomandibular disorders, it is important to develop joint diagnosis and treatment strategies to provide comprehensive patient care.
