Results: 19 articles were selected and these showed a relationship between stress, anxiety and depression with bruxism and TMD, with women being the most affected. Conclusion: the COVID-19 pandemic increased levels of stress, anxiety and depression, as well as the incidence and severity of painful symptoms of bruxism and TMD.
