Craniocervicomandibular dysfunction involves a set of structures, including the temporomandibular joint, masticatory and neck muscles. Vestibulocochlear alterations are closely linked to cervical and masticatory muscle dysfunctions due to anatomical proximity and their physiology. In addition to these, in these cases there is also the presence of referred pains (facial, otalgias, headaches, periorbitals, etc.), joint noises, changes in mandibular dynamics, deviations, deflections and movement restriction. This work will present a case in a 39-year-old female patient, complaining of headaches, ear, behind the eyes, tinnitus, joint clicks, mandibular dislocation in addition to dizziness / vertigo. Anamnesis, physical and complementary exams were performed, the diagnosis was craniocervicomandibular dysfunction with vestibulocochlear symptoms, followed by the proposed treatment, which consisted of physiotherapy exercises and use of an interocclusal device, showing effectiveness, with resolution of the painful, otological and vestibular condition.
