“…As regards to transverse skeletal malocclusion, 12 studies assessed the relationship between breastfeeding or bottle-feeding and maxillary hypoplasia (posterior crossbite). All of the studies, apart from Limeira et al [37] and Sanchez Molins et al [44] that assess the aforementioned association in mixed dentition, focused their attention on the primary dentition [14,15,18,38,39,45,46].…”

“…As regards to vertical discrepancy, 12 studies [3,10,14,15,18,34,36,38,39,44,45,47] investigated the relationship between breastfeeding and abnormal anterior overbite/openbite in deciduous teeth. Finally regarding sagittal discrepancy, seven studies [2,15,18,36,38,39,44]…”

“…As to occlusion development and breastfeeding, Peres et al stated that breastfeeding promotes better occlusion [39], Campos et al [14] reported that children that were not breastfed were more likely to develop malocclusion. On the contrary, Lopes-Freire et al failed to find any connection between these two variables [15].…”

“…The suction reflex is the first coordinated muscular activity performed by the newborn. In the literature there are two forms of suction described: nutritive (breastfeeding and bottle-feeding) and non-nutritive suction [14][15][16]. The first one provides the child with the essential nutrients for their optimal development and growth; in particular breastfeeding is considered the best source of nutrition that a mother can offer her newborn child [17][18][19][20][21][22][23].…”

Relationship between Breastfeeding and Malocclusion: A Systematic Review of the Literature

Background: The purpose of this systematic review was to analyze the available literature about the influence of breastfeeding in primary and mixed dentition on different types of malocclusions. Methods: Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses Protocols (PRISMA-P) guidelines were used to perform the present review. The following electronic databases were searched: Pubmed, Evidence-Based Medicine Reviews (EBMR), Embase, Cochrane Library, Medline, Web of Science and Ovid. Results: A primary research found a total of 279 articles. Two more papers were also considered from the gray literature. Two hundred sixty-three articles were excluded as they were deemed irrelevant on the basis of: duplicates, title, abstract, methods and/or irrelevant contents. Eighteen papers were selected and included in the qualitative analysis. Conclusions: breastfeeding is a positive factor that seems to reduce the incidence of posterior crossbite, skeletal class II and distoclusion in primary and mixed dentition. A sort of positive relationship between months of breastfeeding and risk reduction seems to exist. More longitudinal research is needed to avoid bias in the results, with data collected prospectively on the months of exclusive breastfeeding, by means of specific questionnaires and successive clinical evaluation of the occlusal condition at the primary dentition, mixed dentition and permanent dentition stages.

Objectives This study aimed to analyse the relationship between adverse pregnancy outcomes (APO) and occlusal traits in the primary dentition, checking for different mediation paths. Setting and Sample Population Children evaluated at birth (T1), between 12 and 24 months (T2), and between 24 and 36 months (T3) were included. Two hundred and seventeen children who participated in T1 and T2 were randomly selected to perform the occlusion examination. Materials and Methods This is a prospective cohort study (BRISA). The theoretical model was tested by structural equation modelling (SEM), estimating standardized coefficients (Coeff.) (α = 0.05). The primary exposure was APO—a latent variable manifested from three health problems at birth: low birthweight (LBW), pre‐term birth (PTB) and intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR), evaluated in T1. The outcomes were four different occlusal traits assessed in T3: overjet, anterior and posterior crossbite, and crowding. Each outcome's direct and indirect effects were tested, mediated by growth, breathing, breastfeeding, and pacifier use. Results There was no direct association between APO and any of the outcomes: overjet (Coeff. = −0.163, P = .241), anterior crossbite (Coeff. = −0.696, P = .065), posterior crossbite (Coeff. = −0.087, P = .589) and crowding (Coeff. = 0.400, P = .423). The indirect (total and specifics) effects tested also showed no association (P > .05). However, APO was associated with lower child growth in all models; breastfeeding was associated with higher child growth in all models, and pacifier use was associated with overjet (Coeff. = 0.184, P < .001) and posterior crossbite (Coeff. = 0.373, P = .011). Conclusion APO was not a risk factor for overjet, crossbite and crowding in an early stage of the primary dentition by direct and indirect pathways. However, growth has been lower in children with APO and higher in children breastfed. Also, the harmful effects of using a pacifier in dental occlusion are highlighted.
