Introdução: O aumento do tempo dedicado ao uso de dispositivos eletrónicos entre as crianças tem sido associado a impactos negativos na saúde oral, tema que tem recebido crescente atenção em estudos recentes.
Objetivos: O objetivo desta revisão sistemática foi avaliar se as crianças que utilizam os dispositivos eletrónicos apresentam alterações na saúde oral. Esta revisão sistematizada teve como objetivo responder à seguinte questão: O uso excessivo de dispositivos eletrónicos poderá influenciar negativamente a saúde oral em pacientes pediátricos?
Material e Métodos: A pesquisa foi conduzida em bases de dados reconhecidas, como PubMed, Web of Science e B-on. Os termos de pesquisa utilizados de acordo com o MeSH foram “oral health”; “caries”; “bruxism”, “children”; “screen time”; “sleep” articuladas com o marcador booleano “AND” ou “OR”. Foram selecionados estudos com amostras de crianças e adolescentes (menores de 18 anos) usuários de dispositivos eletrônicos. Foram excluídos estudos de revisão, meta-análises, investigações com adultos, estudos em modelos animais ou in vitro.
Resultados: De um total inicial de 342 artigos, 8 estudos atenderam aos critérios e foram analisados. Os resultados indicam uma associação significativa entre o tempo excessivo em frente ao ecrã e o aumento do risco de problemas de saúde oral, incluindo cáries, índices elevados de placa e gengivite, além de menor frequência de escovagem dentária (menos de duas vezes por dia).
Conclusão: O uso excessivo de dispositivos eletrónicos pode contribuir para o desenvolvimento de manifestações orais adversas e negligência nos cuidados dentários. Dessa forma, o dentista desempenha um papel crucial na identificação precoce desses sinais, apoiando o diagnóstico e a intervenção adequada.
Introduction: The increasing time children spend using electronic devices has been associated with negative impacts on oral health, a topic that has received growing attention in recent studies. Objectives: The aim of this systematic review was to assess whether children who use electronic devices show changes in oral health. This review sought to answer the following question: Can excessive use of electronic devices negatively influence oral health in pediatric patients? Materials and Methods: The search was conducted in recognized databases such as PubMed, Web of Science e B-on. The MeSH terms used were “oral health,” “caries,” “bruxism,” “children,” “screen time,” and “sleep,” combined with the Boolean operators “AND” and “OR.” Studies including samples of children and adolescents (under 18 years old) who use electronic devices were selected. Reviews, meta-analyses, studies with adults, animal studies, and in vitro investigations were excluded. Results: Out of an initial total of 342 articles, 8 studies met the inclusion criteria and were analyzed. The results indicate a significant association between excessive screen time and an increased risk of oral health problems, including caries, higher plaque and gingivitis indices, as well as a lower frequency of tooth brushing (less than twice a day). Conclusion: Excessive use of electronic devices may contribute to the development of adverse oral manifestations and neglect of dental care. Therefore, dentists play a crucial role in the early identification of these signs, supporting diagnosis and appropriate intervention.
