Role of Stress in the Pathogenesis of Temporomandibular Joint Disorder

doi:10.13701/j.cnki.kqyxyj.2022.06.003

Abstract

Abstract: Temporomandibular disorder (TMD) is one of the main causes of non-odontogenic pain in the oral and maxillofacial region. Psychological factors play important roles in the occurrence and development of TMD, and may directly and/or indirectly affect the pain-related biological processes of TMD patients. The purpose of this review is to summarize the related clinical and basic research of stress involved in TMD and other chronic primary pain (CPP) comorbidities, and discuss the potential pathogenesis of TMD and other CPP diseases to guide clinical treatment.

Key words: stress, temporomandibular disorder, comorbidity, pain
