Temporomandibular disorders encompass a group of conditions affecting the temporomandibular joint, masticatory muscles, and associated structures. These disorders often manifest as pain, limited jaw movement, and audible clicking or popping sounds during jaw function. In recent years, there has been growing interest in the association between TMD and cervical spine pain, particularly among young individuals. This article explores the relationship between cervical spine pain intensity and occurrence in young individuals with TMD, delving into the underlying mechanisms, clinical implications, and potential treatment strategies. TMD is prevalent in the general population, with a higher incidence in young adults and females. Adolescents and young adults are particularly susceptible due to hormonal changes, stress, and lifestyle factors.
