“…Aesthetic beauty standards are strongly related to the level of self-esteem. Malocclusion is considered a deviation from the aesthetic pattern in society, and not a disease in itself, and it can be defined as the anomaly in the development of dental arches, resulting in aesthetic and / or functional problems [8][9][10] . A disagreeable dental appearance can stigmatize a person, hamper professional achievement, encourage negative stereotypes, and even undermine self-esteem [11][12][13] .…”

Objective Results A total of 815 adolescents participated in the study. There was a statistically significant association between self-esteem and the variables: sex (p <.0001), willingness to straighten teeth to improve appearance (p = 0.0006), bullying victim (p <.0001), frequency of bullying = 0.0111) and consequences of bullying (p <.0001). A significant risk factor for non-white adolescents' very negative self-esteem (OR = 1.914) was present together with bullying victims who had had negative consequences after the episode (OR = 3.343). ConclusionThere was an association between the self-esteem and bullying variables. Those who reported negative consequences on bullying were three times more likely to present very negative self-esteem, and the chances of non-white adolescents to show negative selfesteem were almost twice as high. There was no statistically significant association between self-esteem and the need for orthodontic treatment.Indexing terms: Adolescent. Bullying. Health school. Malocclusion. Orthodontics. Self-concept. RESUMO ObjetivoAnalisar o nível da autoestima de adolescentes brasileiros e verificar as possíveis associações de desfecho com a necessidade de tratamento ortodôntico e bullying. MétodosEstudo epidemiológico transversal de base populacional. A população foi composta por adolescentes de 11 a 16 anos, matriculados na rede pública de ensino de um município de médio porte do noroeste paulista. Foi realizado um exame bucal utilizando o índice Dental Aesthetic Index (DAI), para verificar a necessidade de tratamento ortodôntico, e um questionário autoaplicável, contendo os índices Global Self-Evaluation (GES), para identificar o nível de autoestima, e o Kidscape, para detecção de bullying. A análise dos dados foi feita utilizando estatística descritiva, análises de associação e regressão logística multivariada. ResultadosNo total, 815 adolescentes participaram da pesquisa. Houve associação estatisticamente significante entre autoestima e as variáveis: sexo (p<.0001), vontade de corrigir os dentes para melhorar a aparência (p=0.0006), vítima de bullying (p<.0001), frequência com que sofreu bullying (p=0.0111) e consequências do bullying (p<.0001). Apresentaram-se como fator de risco significante para uma autoestima muito negativa a cor da pele não branca (OR=1.914) e vítimas de bullying que tiveram consequências negativas após o episódio (OR= 3.343). ConclusãoHouve associação entre as variáveis autoestima e bullying. Aqueles que relataram consequências negativas sobre o bullying apresentaram chances três vezes maiores de ter autoestima muito negativa, já as chances dos adolescentes com cor da pele não branca foram quase duas vezes maiores. Não houve associação estatisticamente significante entre autoestima e necessidade de tratamento ortodôntico.

Objective: to evaluate the oral hygiene habits among patients experiencing fixed orthodontic treatment Material and method: The study was conducted in the orthodontic department of Multan medical and dental college, Multan. One hundred and five patients undergoing fixed orthodontic treatment were included in the study. Duration of study was 5months and 12 days. Patients were asked to fill out a questionnaire about the reason for undergoing treatment, the importance of orthodontic treatment in life, and oral hygiene practice after having fixed orthodontic treatment. Statistical data were analyzed by SPSS version 22 to determine the frequency distribution and percentage ratio for each variable. A Chi-square test was applied to compare gingivitis and frequency of brushing and a p-value ≤ 0.05 was considered significant. Results: The mean age of participants was 20± 4.7 years, with females predominant (71%). Most of the patients were undergoing treatment due to a friend’s suggestion (32%) and a dentist’s suggestion (17%). Most patients brushed twice daily (25%) or after every meal (24.4%) and still have gingivitis which represents brushing alone is not enough. Chi- square test was utilized between frequency of brushing and gingivitis and p- value was > 0.05 which is considered insignificant. The most preferred toothbrush was the general toothbrush (28%) and unspecified brush (23%). Which means proper knowledge of the type of brush was lacking. Only 41% of patients were sure about using fluoridated toothpaste which again shows a lack of awareness. 35% of patients were using a toothpick and 22% were using pins to clean their teeth in absence of a brush which again shows a lack of proper knowledge. 37% of patients were using their mouth wash and 24% were using interdental brushes occasionally. Conclusion: orthodontic treatment itself causes plaque retention and gingivitis so in order to maintain good oral hygiene self-motivation and proper knowledge given by the care provider is very necessary to improve gingival outcomes.

“…O surgimento dos primeiros sintomas DORTs costumam aparecer de maneira lenta, visto que os profissionais da Odontologia estão susceptíveis a estas patologias e o conhecimento imediato dessas alterações mostram-se extremamente importante para evitar sua evolução e comprometimento as estruturas anatômicas importantes 5,6,9 . O início do contato dos profissionais da Odontologia com os fatores que podem acarretar o desenvolvimento de DORTs se dá durante sua graduação, onde ainda na fase do aprendizado os acadêmicos desempenham constantes posturas inadequadas, esforços biomecânicos e movimentos bruscos associados a repouso insuficiente 1,6,10,11 O preenchimento dos questionários foi feito pelo próprio estudante individualmente em horários de intervalos das aulas práticas, sob supervisão de um pesquisador que prestou os esclarecimentos necessários e em caso de dúvidas dos alunos referente a qualquer questão, sanando-as, porém, sem induzir as respostas.…”

Introdução: A prática odontológica predispõe o profissional a doenças ocupacionais em função da realização de movimentos altamente repetitivos, posturas e posições que favorecem ao aparecimento de sintomas dolorosos no sistema osteomuscular desde o aprendizado. Objetivos: Investigar a prevalência de dores osteomusculares em estudantes de odontologia durante suas práticas clínicas. Métodos: Realizou-se um estudo descritivo de corte transversal através de um questionário em estudantes de odontologia do quinto ao décimo período da graduação. Resultados: Foram 283 participantes, 63% do gênero feminino e 37% do gênero masculino, prevalecendo entre 18 e 21 anos, representados por 44%, 69% dos acadêmicos apresentam sintomatologia dolorosa. Conclusões: Os acadêmicos avaliados apresentaram alta prevalência de dores osteomusculares, mostrando que as doenças ocupacionais se iniciam já no período acadêmico.
