This study aims to go beyond this already known relationship (fully supported by previous literature) and shows how the application of an innovative therapeutic protocol for temporomandibular disorders (called MOBT; Myofunctional Orthognathodontic Biodynamic Therapy), may generate relevant effects in respect to anxiety, pain and disorders associated to temporomandibular disorders. Method. A total of 40 patients with TMD underwent a MOBT treatment in a private clinic in Italy, and completed a self-report questionnaire for evaluating anxiety and pain before and after the treatment. Results. Results showed that MOBT treatment gave a significant benefit for anxiety and pain in subjects with TMD symptoms, especially those with a high trait anxiety and severe correlated pains. Conclusion. MOBT appears to be an efficient therapeutic protocol for temporomandibular disorders.
