- Can poor nutrition and diet influence temporomandibular disorder? A systematic reviewPublication . Lima, Flávio Fidêncio de; Razavian, Artin; Hosokawa, Mai; Foscaldo, Tatiana Ferreira; Koldzo, Melisa; Poluha, Rodrigo Lorenzi; Christidis, Maria; Christidis, Nikolaos; Canales, Giancarlo De la TorreBackground: The relationship between diet, nutrition, and painful temporomandibular disorders (TMD) is not well established, despite increasing interest in lifestyle factors in chronic pain. This systematic review aimed to synthesize available evidence on how dietary patterns and nutritional status may be associated with painful TMD. Methods: An electronic search was conducted in the databases MEDLINE, CINAHL, EMBASE, the Cochrane Central Registry of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL) and Web of Science for clinical and observational trials from the beginning of each database to November 2025. Risk of bias was performed using the Study Quality Assessment Tools from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI). Results: Out of 7,760 records and after the risk of bias assessment, only seven studies judged as having a low risk of bias were included. Overall, the included studies indicate that the association between dietary factors and TMD remains unclear. Prospective cohort studies did not demonstrate that prenatal or adolescent diet quality independently predicted TMD. Cross-sectional studies suggested that specific dietary patterns may be related to TMD-related symptoms. Women with myogenous TMD showed lower intake of several nutrients compared with controls. Experimental evidence indicated that monosodium glutamate ingestion increased pain intensity in myofascial TMD, while the only randomized trial found no significant pain differences between vitamin D supplementation and diclofenac. Conclusions: Current evidence suggests that some dietary components and nutritional factors may be associated with TMD-related symptoms or pain responses; however, the findings are limited, heterogeneous, and insufficient to support firm causal or therapeutic conclusions.
- Comparing botulinum toxin and biofeedback therapies for awake bruxism : a randomized clinical trialPublication . Foscaldo, Tatiana Ferreira; Belo Junior, Paulo Henrique dos Santos; Ribeiro, Giselle Rodrigues; Proença, Leilane Samary de; Canales, Giancarlo De la Torre; Senna, Plinio MendesBackground: Behavioral therapy using electromyography-based biofeedback (BIO) and botulinum toxin type A (BTA) injections are potential treatments for managing awake bruxism (AB) in patients with temporomandibular disorders (TMD). The aim of this study was to compare the effectiveness of BIO and BTA in reducing AB behaviors, pain intensity, and psychosocial distress in individuals with TMD. Methods: This single-center, single-blind, parallel-group randomized clinical trial enrolled 40 adults with TMD diagnosed with AB. AB was assessed using the Oral Behavior Checklist (OBC) and smartphone-based Ecological Momentary Assessment (EMA). Participants presenting an AB frequency of ≥ 60% were randomly allocated to receive BIO or BTA intervention. Pain intensity was measured by the Characteristic Pain Intensity (CPI) score, and psychosocial status was evaluated using the Patient Health Questionnaires (PHQ-9, PHQ-15) and the Generalized Anxiety Disorder questionnaire (GAD-7). Assessments were conducted at baseline, and at 1-, 3-, and 6-month follow-ups. Statistical analyses included Mann–Whitney U for AB behaviors, Wilcoxon Signed Rank test for within-group comparisons, and the Kruskal–Wallis test followed by the Dwass-Steel-Critchlow-Fligner post hoc test for between-group comparisons. Results: Intra-group comparisons showed a significant reduction in BIO group for sustained teeth contact (BIO: p = 0.004) and EMA-assessed AB global behavior (BIO: p = 0.008). No significant improvements were found in BTA group for the same variables in all follow-ups (p > 0.05). However, no significant differences were found between groups in all follow-ups for OBC and EMA scores (p > 0.05). Similarly, there were no significant differences between groups for CPI (p = 0.39) or psychosocial outcomes (p > 0.05). Conclusion: Even though neither intervention improved pain nor psychosocial outcomes, BIO significantly reduced AB behaviors, indicating that BIO may be preferable for controlling AB behaviors in TMD patients.
