Following publication of the original article [1], the authors reported an error under heading Introduction.

The sentence currently reads:

17 studies were included (13 cross-sectional and 4 cohorts), indicating that multiple sclerosis patients are more likely to suffer from periodontal diseases and TMD [7]. TMD and periodontal disease might be the first symptoms of several rheumatic diseases [8].

The sentence should read:

Unilateral mastication due to PD could induce pain and structural changes in the temporomandibular joint [7]. In addition to clinical observational studies, two symptoms often occur together in many diseases, such as rheumatic diseases [8, 9] and multiple sclerosis [10].
