Oromandibular dystonia (OMD) is a movement disorder characterised by involuntary, repetitive, and patterned muscle contractions of varying severity, affecting the jaws, tongue, face, and pharynx. It is most commonly idiopathic or medication-induced, but peripheral trauma sometimes precedes the condition. There have been several reports of OMD following dental treatment, and this paper discusses two cases which occurred following extractions and full dentures.
口下颌肌张力障碍(OMD)是一种运动障碍,其特征为不同严重程度的非自愿、重复性和有规律的肌肉收缩,影响颌部、舌头、面部和咽部。它最常见的病因是特发性的或药物引起的,但有时外周创伤会先于该病出现。已有数篇关于牙科治疗后发生OMD的报告,本文讨论了两例拔牙和全口义齿修复后发生的病例。
