ABSTRACT
Orofacial manifestations in cases of Myofascial Pain Dysfunction Syndrome (MPD) diagnosed amongst 71 Dental patients were studied in detail. Findings of this study show that the chief complaint and associated orofacial manifestations of MPD are related to muscular hypertonicity. Stressful situations may produce muscular hypertension, which leads to muscle tenderness as a symptom of over work and fatigue. MPD may be considered a psycosomatic disease.
