The relationship between posture, spine, and temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is still a hotly debated topic in medicine. TMJ takes part in different physiological functions of the organism, starting from its embryological development, it is possible that it influences different vital functions. There is a strong connection between the respiratory tract and dental/maxillary occlusion or anatomy. The altered physiology of this district leads to pathologies that could affect the whole organism. On the contrary, it is also possible to highlight some symptoms of distant organism districts. Knowing well the pathophysiology of this district and semiotics, it is also possible to diagnose pathologies affecting other organs.
姿势、脊柱与颞下颌关节（TMJ）之间的关系在医学领域仍是一个备受争议的热门话题。颞下颌关节参与机体的不同生理功能，从胚胎发育开始，它就有可能影响不同的重要功能。呼吸道与牙齿/上颌咬合或解剖结构之间存在着紧密的联系。该区域生理功能的改变会引发可能影响整个机体的病症。相反，也有可能凸显机体其他远处区域的一些症状。深入了解该区域的病理生理学和症状学，还能够诊断影响其他器官的病症。
