Etiology and Approach to TMDs from a Biopsychosocial Perspective

This approach takes into account not only the physical aspects of TMD, such as dental alignment and muscular problems, but also psychological factors (such as stress and anxiety) and social factors (such as lifestyle and family support).

Biological Factors: Refers to anatomical alterations, joint and muscular dysfunctions, occlusal problems, trauma, and pathologies that affect the structures of the masticatory system. Muscle imbalances and joint hypermobility can also play a role in the onset of TMD.
Psychological Factors: Stress, anxiety, and depression are important factors that influence the development and persistence of TMDs.
Social Factors: Social interactions, the family environment, and work or school dynamics can influence the onset and persistence of TMDs. Factors such as emotional overload and limited social support also contribute to the development of these disorders.
