Elements external to the stomatognathic system can cause auditory and visual disturbances, vertigo, headaches, nausea, nystagmus, swallowing disorders and TMJ dysfunctions.
Recent research in the field of neuroscience indicates that the regulation of the postural system is far from being exclusively regulated by the inner ear. The feet, the eye and above all proprioceptors in certain muscles play a role as or more important than the inner ear.
Dysfunctions in the main proprioceptive receptors lead to a dysregulation of the Postural Tonic System leading to important alterations not only in posture but also in the locomotor system.
There are also other postural sensors such as the chewing apparatus and the presence of scars. The body tends by compensation and adaptation to generate adaptive mechanisms that will integrate as "normal" the dysfunction of the Postural Tonic System creating adaptive mechanisms that usually lead to very diverse pathologies with the passage of time. The body, therefore, is able to continue functioning within the "imbalance" although sooner or later, it will pay the consequences (attention deficit, mouth breathing, vertigo, headaches, muscle pain, among many others).
