O propósito deste estudo clínico, prospectivo e randomizado foi comparar cefalometricamente as alterações dentoalveolares e esqueléticas decorrentes do tratamento da mordida aberta anterior, utilizando o aparelho esporão colado associado à mentoneira, durante um período de 12 meses. As amostras foram constituídas de 30 pacientes cada, sendo um grupo controle, com idade média inicial de 8,36 anos e um grupo experimental, com idade média inicial de 8,14 anos, de ambos os gêneros, leucodermas, em fase da dentadura mista, com incisivos e molares permanentes totalmente irrompidos, relação molar de Classe I de Angle e overbite negativo de pelo menos 1 mm. O período de avaliação foi de 1 ano e correspondeu ao intervalo entre a obtenção das telerradiografias inicial e final. O grupo controle não foi submetido a tratamento. A terapêutica empregada no grupo experimental compreendeu o uso do aparelho esporão lingual , colado na face lingual dos incisivos centrais superiores e inferiores, associado à mentoneira, usada durante o período noturno, com uma força de 450 a 500g por lado, direcionada a 45º acima do plano oclusal. Para a comparação entre os grupos utilizou-se o teste t não pareado, a um nível de significância de 5%. Os resultados permitiram concluir que o aparelho esporão colado associado à mentoneira proporcionou alterações dentoalveolares e esqueléticas (Ar.GoMe) estatisticamente significantes. O grupo experimental apresentou uma lingualização e extrusão dos incisivos superiores e apenas extrusão dos incisivos inferiores quando comparado ao grupo controle. O fechamento médio do overbite foi de 5,23 mm para o grupo experimental, enquanto que para o grupo controle foi de 1,98mm. O grupo experimental apresentou um fechamento do ângulo goníaco com significância estatística, quando comparado ao grupo controle. Concluiu-se que o protocolo de tratamento empregado proporcionou alterações dentoalveolares na região anterior dos arcos dentários, que foram responsáveis pelo fechamento da mordida aberta anterior na fase da dentadura mista, e alterações esqueléticas, devido ao fechamento do ângulo goníco. / The aim of this prospective clinical study was to cephalometrically investigate the dentoalveolar and skeletal changes produced by a bonded spurs appliance with high-pull chincup therapy in children with anterior open-bite malocclusions, for a period of 12 months. The samples comprising 30 white patients each, of both genders, in mixed dentition phase, with permanent incisors and first molars completely erupted, presenting a Class I malocclusion with anterior open bite. The control group had an initial mean age of 8.36 years, while the experimental group had an average of 8.14 years old. The evaluation period comprised the interval of 1 year between the initial and final lateral cephalometric radiographs. The control group was not submitted to any type of orthodontic treatment. The experimental group used bonded spurs appliance associated with high-pull chincup therapy, with a force level of 450 to 500 g per side, passing 45º above the oclusal plane. Comparison between groups was conducted by the unpaired t test. The results allowed the conclusion that the bonded spurs appliance associated to high-pull chincup therapy provided significant dentoalveolar and skeletal alterations in the experimental group when compared to a control group. The maxillary and mandibular incisors extruded and lingually tipped and the madibular incisors extruded only. The mean closure of the anterior open bite was 5.23 mm for the experimental group and 1.98mm for the control group. The experimental group demonstrated a decrease of the gonial angle when compared to the control group. Based on the results of this study, the association of high-pull chincup therapy with bonded spurs appliance provided dentoalveolar changes at the anterior region of the dental arches that were responsible for closure of the anterior open bite in patients treated in the mixed dentition and a decrease of the gonial angle.

Pesquisa do estado de Minas Gerais (FAPEMIG) / Caracter?sticas oclusais est?o associadas ? ocorr?ncia de traumatismo dent?rio em pr?-escolares. Sobressali?ncia acentuada tem sido frequentemente apontada como poss?vel fator de risco para ocorr?ncia de traumatismo dent?rio. No entanto, a mordida aberta anterior, as mordidas cruzadas anterior e posterior e o apinhamento dental t?m sido pouco investigados e apresentam resultados n?o conclusivos na denti??o dec?dua. Assim, o presente estudo buscou investigar a influ?ncia das caracter?sticas oclusais na ocorr?ncia de traumatismo dent?rio em pr?-escolares. Trata-se de um estudo caso-controle de base populacional (1:1), realizado na cidade de Diamantina - Brasil. Ap?s a realiza??o de um estudo transversal as crian?as de 3 a 5 anos de idade com traumatismo dent?rio foram sorteadas para compor o grupo caso (n=200). O grupo controle foi composto por crian?as sem hist?ria de traumatismo dent?rio e pareadas com as crian?as do grupo caso empregando os seguintes crit?rios (1.escola, 2.sexo, 3.idade). As vari?veis independentes foram coletadas por serem de interesse para o estudo (caracter?sticas oclusais) ou por atuarem como potenciais confundidoras (vari?veis sociodemogr?ficas, h?bitos de suc??o e cobertura labial). Os valores de kappa intraexaminador e inter-examinador foram superiores a 0,80 para todas as condi??es bucais avaliadas. Para a an?lise dos dados utilizou-se o programa SPSS 22.0. Foram realizadas as an?lises descritiva, univariada e de regress?o log?stica simples e m?ltipla. Para cada vari?vel de interesse (caracter?stica oclusal), foram criados 5 modelos de ajuste para as vari?veis confundidoras. Na an?lise univariada, observou-se associa??o estatisticamente significativa para as vari?veis, apinhamento anterior superior (p=0,024), mordida aberta (p=<0,001), sobressali?ncia (p=<0,001) e cobertura labial (p=<0,001). Ap?s a regress?o log?stica, a mordida aberta anterior manteve a signific?ncia estat?stica nos cinco modelos de ajuste (OR= 3,80; IC 95%=1,42 ? 10,16). As vari?veis apinhamento anterior superior (OR=2,14; IC 95%=1,00 ? 4,63) e sobressali?ncia (OR= 1,12; IC 95%=0,58 ? 2,17) permaneceram associadas ao grupo caso, independentemente das vari?veis de confundimento (vari?veis sociodemogr?ficas, h?bitos de suc??o e cobertura labial), mas perderam a signific?ncia no modelo 5, quando foram ajustadas por outros tipos de m? oclus?o. Conclui-se que a mordida aberta anterior permaneceu fortemente associada ao traumatismo dent?rio, independentemente das vari?veis de confus?o e de outros tipos de m? oclus?o. / Disserta??o (Mestrado) ?

Accentuated overjet has been frequently pointed as a possible risk factor for dental trauma. However, anterior open bite, anterior and posterior crossbite and dental crowding have been little investigated and show non-conclusive results in the deciduous teeth. Therefore, the present study sought to investigate the influence of occlusal characteristics in the occurrence of dental trauma in preschool children. This is a population based case-control study (1:1), held in the city of Diamantina-Brazil. After conducting a cross-sectional study, children between the ages of 3 to 5 years old with dental trauma were randomly chosen to the case group (n=200). The control group was made of children without dental trauma history and paired with the case group children using the following criteria (1. school, 2. gender, 3. age). The independent variables were collected because of the studies? interest (occlusal characteristics) or because of its potential as a confounding factor (sociodemographic variables, suction habits and lip coverage). The intra and inter-examiner kappa values were greater than 0,80 for all of the oral conditions assessed. The SPSS 22.0 program was used for data analysis. The descriptive, univariate, simple and multiple logistics regression analysis were performed. For each variable of interest (occlusal characteristic), five adjustment models for the confounding variables were created. In the univariate analysis, statistically significant association was observed for the variables: superior anterior crowding (p=0,024), open bite (p=<0,001), overjet (p=<0,001) and lip coverage (p=<0,001). After logistic regression, anterior open bite kept the statistic significance in all five adjustment models (OR= 3,80; IC 95%=1,42 ? 10,16). The anterior superior crowding variable (OR=2,14; IC 95%=1,00 ? 4,63) and the overjet variable (OR= 1,12; IC 95%=0,58 ? 2,17) remained associated with the case group, regardless of the confounding variables (sociodemographic variables, suction habits and lip coverage), but lost significance in model 5, when adjusted for other types of malocclusion. In conclusion, anterior open bite remained strongly associated with dental trauma, regardless of the confounding variables and of other types of malocclusion.

Para tal análise, avaliou-se: artigos sobre saúde oral publicados no período de 1998 a 2008 nas revistas pediátricas nacionais de maior relevância acadêmica; a presença de temas de saúde oral no conteúdo programático nos cursos de graduação em medicina de universidades públicas brasileiras de referência no campo da pediatria; teses de mestrado e doutorado nos programas de pós-graduação em saúde da criança e do adolescente dessas universidades. A partir destes dados, foi encaminhada um questionário com questões abertas aos coordenadores de ensino de pediatria na graduação e coordenadores de residência em pediatria das universidades selecionadas. Os resultados mostram pouca interdisciplinaridade entre médicos pediatras e dentistas, com ainda incipiente aquisição de conhecimento sobre saúde oral no curso médico e na residência em pediatria; em apenas uma das universidades estudadas o tema é incluído no conteúdo programático. Entretanto, pode-se vislumbrar a tendência a mudança desse quadro, pois a maioria dos coordenadores de curso, embora não tenham tido acesso a um aprendizado sistematizado, considera o tema importante na formação do médico pediatra e relatam iniciativas individuais neste sentido; também em relação ao número de publicações e teses sobre o assunto, embora ainda seja pequeno, existem. / Abstract: This study was aimed at understanding the importance of knowledge about oral health in medical training, especially pediatricians, and, indirectly, their preparation to recognize and prevent oral diseases and refer them to the dentist. For this analysis, the following were assessed: oral health articles published from 1998 to 2008 in national pediatric journals of greater academic relevance and the presence of oral health issues in the programmatic content in undergraduate courses in medicine in public renowned universities in Brazil in the field of pediatrics; Master and PhD theses in graduate programs in health of children and adolescents of these universities. From this data, an interview with open questions was forwarded to the coordinators of pediatric education at undergraduate programs and coordinators of pediatric education in selected universities. The results show little interdisciplinarity between pediatricians and dentists, with a still incipient acquisition of knowledge about oral health in medical school and residency in pediatrics; and the topic is not included in the syllabus of any of the universities studied. However, one can discern a tendency to change this scenario, since most of the course coordinators, although they haven't had access to a systematized learning, consider the issue important in the training of pediatricians and report individual initiatives in this direction; further, in relation to the number of publications and theses on the subject, while still small, they exist. / Doutorado / Saude da Criança e do Adolescente / Doutor em Saude da Criança e do Adolescente

São casos que possuem características múltiplas de colapso orofacial presente em vários tecidos, identificados como problemas de origem dental, periodontal, das articulações temporomandibulares, assimetrias esqueletais dos ossos da face, alterações na postura da cabeça e do pescoço e compensações musculares e ligamentares de todo o sistema estomatognático, com consequências nas funções da fala, respiração, mastigação, deglutição, digestão e postura corporal. Sintomas de desconforto e dor crônica, algumas vezes de caráter incapacitante, são comuns e presentes nesses pacientes. Por outro lado, selecionamos alguns casos de crianças com problemas semelhantes aos encontrados nos adultos estudados, porém com sinais e sintomas não tão evidentes. Desta vez, foram diagnosticadas e tratadas. Visamos com esse trabalho, alertar todos os profissionais das áreas afins, da importância da identificação precoce de sinais e sintomas que possibilitem uma ação terapêutica mais econômica, previsível e estável, quando comparados aos casos que se apresentam na clínica, após muitos anos, sem diagnóstico ou com uma visão apenas focada na resolução dos problemas locais, sem dar a devida importância para a abrangência de seu significado. / Abstract: The objective of this work is to identify and discuss signs and symptoms of temporomandibular disorders present in children and adolescents during the intensive phase of growth and craniofacial development. Adult patients were selected for this work, who did not receive the necessary therapeutic attention and care that certainly defined their present, very differently than if they had been treated in childhood, in a preventive and / or intercepting form. These are cases that have multiple characteristics of oral facial collapse present in various tissues, identified as problems of dental and periodontal origin, temporomandibular joint, skeletal asymmetry of facial bones, changes in posture of the head and neck, and natural ligament and muscle compensation for all of the stomatognathic system, involving consequences on speech, breathing, chewing, swallowing and digestion functions and body posture. Symptoms of discomfort and chronic pain, sometimes of incapacitating character, are common in these patients. Moreover, some cases of children with problems similar to those found in adults studied were selected, but with signs and symptoms that are not so evident. This time they were diagnosed and treated. We aim with this work, to alert all professionals of related areas about the importance of early identification of signs and symptoms to enable a more economical, predictable and stable therapeutic action when compared to cases that are presented at the clinic, after many years without diagnosis or with a vision only focused on solving local problems, without giving due importance to the scope of its meaning. / Doutorado / Saude da Criança e do Adolescente / Doutor em Saude da Criança e do Adolescente

Les anomalies de croissance maxillo-faciale résultent de variations du processus normal de croissance. Après les caries, elles représentent les problèmes bucco-dentaires les plus fréquents chez les jeunes et peuvent entraîner des troubles fonctionnels (mastication, phonation, respiration), esthétiques et parfois psychologiques. Le traitement orthodontique vise à corriger les anomalies de croissance maxillo-faciale. L’objectif de cette thèse est de rechercher des facteurs de risque précoces d’anomalies de croissance maxillo-faciale et d’étudier le rôle des facteurs socio-économiques, culturels et géographiques de l’accès au traitement orthodontique en France. Les enfants de la cohorte EPIPAGE, qui avait inclus toutes les naissances survenues entre 22 et 32 semaines d’aménorrhée dans neuf régions françaises en 1997, ont été examinés à 5 ans. Nous avons étudié les relations entre les caractéristiques néonatales et la déformation du palais à 5 ans chez 1711 enfants. Le sexe masculin, le petit âge gestationnel, le petit poids pour l’âge gestationnel et peut-être l’intubation de longue durée sont identifiés comme des facteurs de risque de déformation du palais à 5 ans chez les grands prématurés ; de plus, les enfants avec des déficiences neuro-motrices semblent particulièrement à risque. La cohorte mère-enfant EDEN, a inclus des femmes enceintes en 2002-2003 et leur enfant à la naissance. Nous avons recherché les facteurs de risque précoces de l’occlusion postérieure inversée et de la béance antérieure chez 422 enfants de 3 ans. En plus d’une tétine encore utilisée à 3 ans et de la respiration buccale qui sont des facteurs connus, un nouveau facteur de risque d’occlusion postérieure inversée en denture temporaire est mis en évidence : la prématurité. Enfin, l’étude chez les 5988 enfants et les adolescents de l’enquête sur la santé et la consommation de soins en France réalisée par l’Insee en 2002-2003, enquête transversale sur échantillon représentatif de la population vivant en France, montre que 23% des 12-15 ans ont un traitement orthodontique. En plus du facteur économique, le moindre recours au traitement orthodontique est aussi lié à l’environnement social et culturel moins favorisé de l’enfant, à l’absence de couverture complémentaire et à l’habitation en zone rurale.En conclusion, pour mieux comprendre les inégalités dans le traitement orthodontique, il faudrait en évaluer les besoins en amont. Nous avons étudié des facteurs liés à la présence d’anomalies de croissance maxillo-faciale à des âges très jeunes afin de pouvoir identifier tôt des enfants à risque de ces anomalies. Il est nécessaire de vérifier leur évolution pour savoir si elles sont de réels marqueurs précoces de besoin en traitement orthodontique. / Malocclusions are due to variations of normal process of growth. Besides caries, they are the most common oral problems encountered by children and teenagers. They may lead to oral dysfunction (in chewing, speaking and breathing), esthetic and sometimes psychological issues. Orthodontic treatment aims at correcting malocclusions.The purpose of this thesis is to investigate early risk factors for malocclusions and to analyze the role of socioeconomic, cultural and geographic factors in access to orthodontic treatment in France. In the EPIPAGE cohort study, which included all live births between 22 and 32 weeks of gestation in 9 French regions in 1997, 1711 children were examined at 5 years. We explored the relations between neonatal characteristics and alteration of palatal morphology at 5 years. Male sex, low gestational age, small for gestational age and maybe intubation of long duration were identified as risk factors for alteration of palatal morphology et 5 years in very preterm children; children with neuromotor deficiencies seem particularly at risk. The mother-child EDEN cohort included pregnant women in 2002-2003 and their child at birth. We investigated early risk factors for posterior crossbite and anterior open bite in 422 3-year-old children. In addition to ongoing pacifier sucking habit at 3 years and mouth breathing, which are well-known risk factors, prematurity appears to be a new risk factor for posterior crossbite in temporary dentition. Finally, the French survey on health and care consumption, carried out in 2002-2003 in a representative sample of 5988 children and teenagers, shows that 23% of the 12-15 years old have an orthodontic treatment. Besides the economic factor, the less orthodontic treatment uptake is related to a less privileged social environment, to the absence of supplementary insurance and to living in a rural area.In conclusion, to understand inequalities in orthodontic treatment better, orthodontic treatment need should be evaluated first. We investigated factors related to malocclusions at very young ages, which could help to early identify children at risk. The assessment of how these early malocclusions would evolve is therefore needed in order to control if those malocclusions are indeed early markers for orthodontic treatment need.

Orthognatic surgery deals with congenital and acquired dentoalveolar or skeletal deformities of the face. An unfavourable downward rotation of a mandible and posterior vertical maxillary excess cause an anterior open bite, which is characterized by excessive anterior facial height in the lower third, a gap between the incisors in maximal occlusion and a large mandibular angle. Osteotomy (mainly Le Fort I osteotomy or bilateral sagittal split osteotomy of the mandibular ramus - BSSO), ostectomy or distraction osteogenesis are performed to correct the orthognatic deformities. Osteosynthetic materials based on titanium or bioresorbable materials are used in the form of miniplates with monocortical screws, or bicortical screws are utilized to fix the bony fragments. Stability of the new jaws position is the main criterion for success. Relapse causes a loss of occlusion and consequently functional and aesthetic disorders. Relapse consists of skeletal and dental factors. Skeletal relapse is usually divided into early and long-term relapse. BSSO with counter-clockwise (CCW) rotation of the occlusal plane alone was traditionally considered to be the least stable treatment method. Some authors suggest the use of two miniplates on each side of the osteotomy, but we have not found scientific proof of the...
