AI Article Synopsis
- This review discusses recent advancements in understanding temporomandibular disorders (TMDs) and their connection to headache disorders, particularly focusing on the underlying mechanisms and management strategies.
- There are significant findings indicating that treatment options for TMDs and headaches should include a mix of both medication and non-medication approaches, with a special emphasis on new therapies like CGRP-targeted options.
- Collaboration between neurology and dentistry is emphasized as essential for effective management, highlighting the need for more research to establish solid treatment protocols for these comorbid conditions.
Article Abstract
Purpose Of Review: To provide an overview and highlight recent updates in temporomandibular disorders (TMDs) and their comorbidity with headache disorders regarding pathophysiology and management.
Recent Findings: In the last decade, there have been great advancements in the understanding of TMDs and their relationship with neurovascular pains such as headaches. Understanding of TMDs is necessary for the context of its comorbidity with primary headache disorders. The literature regarding management of these comorbidities is scarce but points to combination therapy including pharmacological and non-pharmacological approaches to optimize management. The use of CGRP receptor-targeted monoclonal antibodies or CGRP receptor antagonists should be explored for the management of chronic TMDs. It could also be used as a novel monotherapy or in combination with non-pharmacological approaches for TMDs' comorbidity with headache, particularly migraine. Research is needed to support evidence-based management protocols. A team involving neurology (headache medicine) and dentistry (orofacial pain) is critical for optimal management.

Faculty of Dentistry, The University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong, Hong Kong.
Background: The Depression, Anxiety, Stress Scales-21 (DASS-21) contain three subscales measuring depression, anxiety, and stress. Several abbreviated DASS-21 versions have been developed, demonstrating better clinical utility and measurement properties than the original instrument. This study explored the factor structure of various abbreviated DASS-21 versions and identified/validated the optimal one for assessing young adults with temporomandibular disorders (TMDs).

: The main aim of this paper was to perform the morphological assessment of children's mandibles of different etiology of dys-functions within the temporomandibular joint, from isolated idiopathic ankylosis to craniofacial malformations co-existing with genetic disorders. : The investigations encompassed seven patients at the age of 0-3. Measurements were conducted on the basis of data obtained from computed tomography.

Aims: To verify the possible association between the stomatognathic and the visual system by analyzing the effects that different mandibular postures may have on the accommodative capacity and ocular convergence and by assessing whether temporomandibular disorders (TMD) can influence visual abilities.
Materials And Methods: A case-control study was performed during a 1-year period on a sample of 100 subjects (50 cases and 50 controls). The subjects underwent a gnathological examination, and two visual tests were performed in three different jaw positions: maximum intercuspation, resting position, and open mouth.

Due to their superior physicochemical features, chitosan thermosensitive hydrogels are multipurpose platforms that are frequently used in the biomedical industry. Many investigations have been conducted recently to modify their pore dimensions, expansion, biodegradability, stimulus-reaction characteristics, and other characteristics in order to better tailor them to the complex craniofacial tissues. They have been the focus of various studies that have attempted to load biological cargos for therapeutic and regenerative uses in the oro-facial tissues.
