The biomechanical relationship among the head, cervical spine and teeth has generated much scientific debate due to their different implications and interrelations. Of particular interest is the position of the mandible in the sleep state because postural problems have been observed in >90% of cases of subjects with some type of malocclusion, which has led to a growing interest on the subject.
