Abstract

Neuromuscular dentistry is the treatment philosophy involving all the important structures like teeth, muscles (associated nerves), temporomandibular joint and the interrelation between them. The ultimate aim of a doctor is to restore and maintain the well being of the patients’ stomatognathic system, and to have a long term favourable prognosis of the treatment provided. As the need of the hour, the treatment protocols should be evidence based and must have the approval of independent studies and researches. Relationship between occlusion, posture and TMDs has been a debatable topic in prosthodontics. Rectifying the occlusal and postural abnormalities to treat Temporomandibular disorders according to pathophysiological concepts is under extensive scrutiny. The muscles act as the driving force of the whole system which works in co-ordination with its neural stimulation. This discipline is a comprehensive concept of a dynamic stomatognathic system that are in lines with the biomedical principles governing the other organs to treat the patient. This speciality uses highly advanced instrumentation to quantify the subjective parameters of lower jaw movements and formulate a robust diagnosis and treatment plan. There exists a group of believers and non- believers who still co-exist and the philosophy is still not universally accepted. This literature reviews attempts to provide an insight on the topic.
