(Artigo : O uso de agentes condroprotetores no tratamento da osteoartrite da articulação temporomandibular – revisão sistemática) The objective of this systematic review was to answer the following question: "Does the use of glucosamine and chondroitin decrease pain and improve function in patients with osteoarthritis of the temporomandibular joint?" A search in the literature guided by PRISMA-P Statement was conducted using the PubMed, EMBASE and Cochrane Library databases and the OMNIS and VHL tools. The search terms that guided the search were: "glucosamine", "chondroitin", "temporomandibular" and "osteoarthritis". The data extraction was performed in 4 randomized clinical trials that presented according to the eligibility criteria. The selected studies were also submitted to methodological quality evaluation. Final considerations: Although RCTs show positive results regarding chondroprotective agents, there is a need for more methodological rigor in their construction.
