“…Some authors believe that this parafunctional activity of the masticatory system has a multifactorial etiology. 3,4,13,14 In addition to the relevant aspect of this study design being based on a substantial sample size, which involved 937 children in the primary dentition stage, several characteristics were analyzed. This study comprised the occlusal characteristics in the antero-posterior direction of the dental arches, the presence of the parafunctional habit of bruxism, restless sleep and headaches.…”

Association of infantile bruxism and the terminal relationships of the primary second molars Abstract: The aim of this study was to analyze the association between infantile bruxism and the terminal relationships of the primary second molars. A total of 937 pre-school children (both genders), aged from 2 to 6 years, from municipal schools in São Paulo were evaluated. In this study, a questionnaire considering the bruxism habit and the presence of headaches and/or restless sleep was answered by the parents/guardians. A clinical exam of occlusion in the anteroposterior direction (vertical plane -VP, mesial step -MS and distal step -DS) was performed by the examiners in the school environment. Student's t test, Fisher's test and a logistic regression test were applied for the statistical analysis at a significance level of 5%. The prevalence of the bruxism habit was 29.3% among the total sample. Because there was no significant difference between the sides evaluated, the left side was taken as the standard. Among those children with bruxism, 25.7% presented a mesial step terminal relationship at the primary second molars, 29.1% had DS, and 30.2% had VP. Regarding the association of the parafunctional habit with the type of terminal relationship, no significant results were found. Children who slept restlessly or suffered from headaches were verified to show a higher chance of expressing the habit (OR = 2.4 and 1.6, respectively). The prevalence of bruxism in the studied sample was 29.3%, and its association with the primary second molars' terminal relationship was not statistically significant.

“…The first type is without any medical reason and the secondary type is whether with use of drug or without the use of drug (Kato T et al, 2001) [17,18]. Bruxism can cause permanent damage in the stomatognathic system, such as dental wear, TMD, or alterations in head posture(Velez AL, Restrepo CC, Peláez A, et al, 2007) [19].…”

Although oral habits are being dealt by dentist especially by Pedodontist and orthodontist since long time, but till today this particular abnormal/normal entity is not fully known. Time-to-Time various hypothesis & explanations have been given by various authors but none of it specifically delineate the habits those which are normal for a particular age group and others, which are deleterious to stomatognathic system. The main reason for this difficulty is that a habit may be a part of normal development, a symptom associated with deep-rooted Psychological disturbance or a habit may be a result of abnormal facial growth. Though it is difficult to delineate it, but it is important to have differentiation of abnormal from normal because If normal development get disturbed unknowingly and at the same time If abnormal growth or underlying psychological cause let continue without interfering at proper time/age it will lead to long lasting effect on stomatognathic system its growth & development and psychological development of child.

“…Sua manifestação é comum em adultos 6 , porém, devido as grandes modificações osteomioarticulares durante o crescimento craniofacial, crianças e adolescente podem manifestar sinais e sintomas de DTM 7 . Além das modificações osteomioarticulares, a manifestação da DTM, em especial na infância pode estar associada a frequência de hábitos parafuncionais orais e viciosos que afetam a oclusão 8 músculos da mastigação, ombro e cervical 9,10 . Mediante a isto, tais alterações funcionais nessas estruturas podem ocasionar alterações na postura e a instabilidade da cervical 11 .…”

Resumo: Avaliar as diferenças posturais entre crianças e adolescentes com e sem DTM. Foram inclusas 44 crianças e adolescente de ambos os sexos com idade de 10 a 15 anos, matriculados na Unidade de Ensino básico Luís Viana, São Luís -MA. Foram excluídos indivíduos que tinham realizado cirurgias ortognáticas prévias, que não apresentaram o termo de consentimento livre e esclarecido assinado pelo responsável e o termo de assentimento assinado ou que estivessem realizando tratamento para DTM. O diagnóstico da DTM foi feito pelo eixo I do RDC/TMD e a análise da postura corporal foi realizada pela fotogrametria computadorizada, com traçados dos ângulos de protrusão de cabeça (APC) e lordose cervical (ALC) e posteriormente analisados pelo software de análise fotográfica corporispro. Do total de 44 voluntários 55,12% (n=13) apresentou diagnóstico de DTM miogênica, foi observada homogeneidade nos dados demográficas. Nos voluntários com DTM foi observada uma redução no APC em relação ao grupo sem DTM (p<0,05), já para o ALC não foi observada diferença significativa entre os grupos (P>0,05). Indivíduos com DTM apresentam maior retificação da coluna cervical e maior anteriorização de cabeça em relação a indivíduos sem DTM. Esses achados chamam a atenção para a importância da avaliação da postura craniocervical em crianças com diagnóstico ou mesmo com sinais e sintomas de DTM.Palavras-chave: Postura cervical; Disfunção temporomandibular; fotogrametria. Abstract:To evaluate postural differences among children and adolescents with and without TMD. We included 44 children and adolescents of both sexes, aged 10 to 15 years, enrolled in the Luís Viana Elementary School, São Luís -MA. We excluded individuals who had previous orthognathic surgeries, who did not present the informed consent form signed by the person in charge and the agreement signed or who were performing treatment for TMD. The diagnosis of TMD was made by the axis of the Diagnostic Criteria in Research for Temporomandibular Dysfunction (RDC / TMD) and the analysis of body posture was performed by computerized photogrammetry, with labeling of the anatomical points corresponding to the head protrusion angles (ALC) and lordosis Cervical (ALC) and later analyzed by the corporispro photographic analysis software. A total of 44 volunteers (n = 13) presented a diagnosis of myogenic TMD, there were homogeneity of the mean values and standard deviations of the demographic variables, in the volunteers with TMD a reduction was observed in the APC compared to the group without TMD (P <0.05). However, for the LAC, no significant difference was observed between the groups (P> 0.05), although an angular increase of the TMD group was observed in relation to the control group. Individuals with TMD present greater cervical rectification and greater anteriority of the head in relation to individuals without TMD. These findings point to the importance of assessing craniocervical posture in children diagnosed or even with signs and symptoms of TMD.

Head posture and dental wear evaluation of bruxist children with primary teeth

Abstract: Bruxism seems to be related to altered natural head posture and more intense dental wear. Further studies are necessary to explore bruxism mechanisms.
