'''Abstract'''This section introduces the relationship between occlusion and posture, summarizing the conceptual framework for the chapters to follow. The introduction draws upon Monika Nowak et al.'s research, emphasizing the connections between body posture and cranio-mandibular systems. Posture, as the body's spatial orientation, involves inputs from the visual, vestibular, and proprioceptive systems. The craniomandibular system, specifically, has been studied for its influence on postural stability, with theories ranging from the involvement of myofascial chains to trigeminal nerve activation. | '''Abstract:''' This section introduces the relationship between occlusion and posture, summarizing the conceptual framework for the chapters to follow.

There is significant debate within the scientific community regarding the impact of dental occlusion on posture. Some studies support a correlation between masticatory organ function and postural stability, linking malocclusion to changes in muscle tension, head position, and postural adjustments. On the other hand, several studies, including those from Giuseppe Perinetti and Benjamin Scharnweber, contest these associations, arguing that occlusion has no significant effect on body sway, plantar pressure distribution, or postural control. | There is significant debate within the scientific community regarding the impact of dental occlusion on posture.
