Summary

This study looked at 27 university students to see if a common postural problem called Upper Cross Syndrome (forward head and rounded shoulders) is linked to jaw pain and dysfunction (TMD). Researchers measured posture angles and jaw movement in a single session. No treatment was given. The goal was to better understand how posture and jaw health might be connected.
