Oromandibular dystonia (OMD) is a clinical problem which is commonly encountered in the practice of movement disorders. OMD results from a variety of genetic and acquired etiologies and can occur as an isolated manifestation, or as part of an isolated generalized or a combined dystonia syndrome. There are only very few systematic reviews on this condition which often causes significant disability. We review here the etiology, clinical features, diagnostic approach and management of OMD.
