Temporomandibular joint disorder (TMD) is a chronic disorder that significantly affects oral function. It can affect appetite and the mechanical components involved with eating, including mandibular opening, biting, chewing, and even swallowing. Thus, dietary intake and, subsequently, nutrition status are affected. The functional challenges presented by the disorder affect eating-related quality of life and can affect food choices and diet quality and composition. This article addresses disorder-related factors affecting the eating experience of adults with TMDs and approaches to diet management.
