ABSTRACT

Aging is a natural process of varying length that occurs similarly in each species. It is a time-dependent process characterized by a progressive increase in the vulnerability and a decrease in the viability of the organism. It is necessary to know the age-related changes in order to diagnose and treat temporomandibular disorders. This literature review aims to provide an update of the main aspects related to aging of the stomatognathic system. An Internet search was conducted using specialized search engines and descriptors related to this subject. Health databases were also consulted. It was concluded that the main characteristics of the temporomandibular joint during aging are degenerative changes, without necessarily causing clinical manifestations and without a linear relationship between age and radiographic changes in condylar morphology. It is suggested that aging of the stomatognathic muscles is related to the depletion of the stem cell pool and the vascular remodeling that occurs with aging, which may be responsible for changes in muscle function.
