Ângelo, David; Faria-Teixeira, Maria Cristina; Maffia, Francesco; Sanz, David; Sarkis, Marcella; Marques, Rute; Mota, Beatriz; João, Ricardo SãoAbstract: Background/Objectives: Temporomandibular disorders (TMD) encompass a range of musculoskeletal and neuromuscular conditions affecting the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) and associated structures. This cross-sectional study, conducted in a Portuguese TMD department, aimed to assess the relationship between malocclusion and TMD severity. Methods: Data on demographic variables, TMD clinical symptoms, and m...
Temporomandibular joint minimally invasive procedures in the pediatric populati...
Ângelo, David; Lopes, Cláudia Sacramento; Sanz, David; Faria-Teixeira, Maria Cristina; Marques, Rute; Maffia, Francesco; Cardoso, Henrique JoséOver recent years, temporomandibular joint (TMJ) minimally invasive procedures, such as arthrocentesis and arthroscopy, have been appointed as an initial TMJ intra-articular treatment. Both procedures present safe and effective clinical results in managing temporomandibular disorders (TMD) by reducing pain and improving mouth opening. The use of these techniques in adults is validated in the literature. However...
Skeletal Class III phenotype: link between animal models and human genetics: a ...
Dehesa‐Santos, Alexandra; Faria-Teixeira, Maria Cristina; Iglesias‐Linares, AlejandroThis study aimed to identify evidence from animal studies examining genetic variants underlying maxillomandibular discrepancies resulting in a skeletal Class III (SCIII) malocclusion phenotype. Following the Manual for Evidence Synthesis of the JBI and the PRISMA extension for scoping reviews, a participant, concept, context question was formulated and systematic searches were executed in the PubMed, Scopus, WO...
