Singing and playing various musical instruments affect not only the condition of the body, but also the dental status: for example, the violinists change occlusal relationships, dysfunction of the temporomandibular joint develops. Musicians playing wind instruments are susceptible to diseases of the lips and require a special approach to prosthetics. The dental status of vocalists has been least studied, although there are studies that have revealed their dry mouth, more frequent recurrences of herpes labialis and dysfunctional disorders of the temporomandibular joint.
