RIBEIRO, Sammir de Oliveira; ALBUQUERQUE, Ana Carolina Lyra de; RODRIGUES, Rodrigo Araújo  e  SANTOS, Pedro Paulo de Andrade. RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN TEMPOROMANDIBULAR DISORDERS (DTM) AND PATIENTS WITH PARTIAL REMOVABLE PROSTHESIS. Odontol. Clín.-Cient. (Online) [online]. 2015, vol.14, n.1, pp. 565-570. ISSN 1677-3888.

Despite all the advances, pain is still one of the problems that affect the quality of life, and may be related to temporomandibular disorders (TMD), which are often wrongly diagnosed. These partial edentulous may choose for not using of removable partial dentures (RPD), contributing to a collapse in the stomatognathic system and temporomandibular joint, if the option is the replacement of missing teeth by RPD, we should pay attention to the making of this type of prosthesis, following criteria that must be met, both in its production as a function, and failure to comply with these parameters can lead to damage to the stomatognathic system. For this reason, this literature review seeks to show if the RPD can be one of the factors related to the onset of TMD and which other way we could also make the RPD to protect the temporomandibular joint. The methodology consisted of a literature review, through textbooks, monographs and scientific articles collected in databases: Medline/Pubmed; SciELO, CAPES Periodicals and Lilacs. It was concluded in this study that the use of well prepared RPD, adapted, which respects the basic principles of implementation and function, does not lead to the onset of TMD itself and that this relationship between TMD and RPD is possible when neglect these principles both part of prosthetic laboratories, as by the Dental Surgeon.
