Objective: To relate the severity of TMD and cervical dysfunction signs and symptoms with pulmonary function in individuals with chronic respiratory diseases. Materials and methods: Thirteen individuals diagnosed with chronic respiratory diseases, whom attended the physiotherapy school clinic, EBSERH outpatient clinic and students from UFS, 9 female and 4 male, aged between 18 and 50 years were included. In the evaluation, ProDTMmulti was used to quantify the frequency and severity of TMD signs and symptoms; Craniocervical Dysfunction Index to assess cervical mobility, muscle pain, pain during movement, cervical spine dysfunction, and posture analysis; and respiratory function tests with ventilometer. Results: There was a higher prevalence of absence of TMD signs and symptoms, except for cervical pain (53.85%), plugged ear sensation (53.85%) and tooth sensitivity (53.85%), where the mild degree was more prevalent. All subjects had cervical abnormalities, 69% with moderate dysfunction and 31% with severe. And they did not present ventilatory changes. There was no significant correlation between chronic respiratory diseases andthe degree of severity of TMD signs and symptoms and craniocervical dysfunction. Conclusion: There was no correlation between chronic respiratory diseases and pulmonary function with the presence of craniocervical dysfunction and TMD in the evaluated sample. However, it was possible to verify that part of these individuals presented TMD signs and symptoms, such as cervical pain, plugged ear sensation and tooth sensitivity, and that all presented moderate to severe craniocervical dysfunction.
