- - Primary headache disorders (PHD), like migraines, show a strong link to temporomandibular disorders (TMD), indicating shared causes and patterns of facial pain, primarily influenced by genetics.
- - A systematic review, following PRISMA guidelines, analyzed eight studies from 2015-2020 on the genetic connections between TMD and PHD, revealing that a specific gene is key in TMD, but no link to PHD was found.
- - The review emphasizes the need to further explore the genetic roles of these disorders to identify promising therapy targets for better treatment options in the future.
