Abstract
Posture is understood as the relative position of various body segments in relation to each other and relative to the environment. Postural control is characterized by the ability to adapt our use of sensory information to changing tasks and environmental conditions. Malocclusion and incorrect body posture are two very common issues in growing subjects and especially in patients with mixed dentition, where it is still possible to intervene to modify and correct both conditions. In order to perform a correct diagnosis and an orthodontic treatment plan, the relationships between occlusion and posture should be evaluated to establish the most appropriate strategy of treatment and an interdisciplinary approach between different healthcare professionals. The aim of this study is to investigate the possible relationship between malocclusion and body posture anomalies.
