TMJD Linked to Other Diseases?

Is TMJD linked to other diseases? Are there other underlying causes? Is there any relation to Chondromalatia, camtodactyly and pericarditis?

Temporomandibular disorders are closely linked to other musculoskeletal pain conditions, such as fibromyalgia,  psychologic diseases, such as depression, anxiety, or sleep distibance. The diseases entities you mentioned are not commonly linked as documented in the literaure.
