Abstract(s)
O objetivo desta tese é analisar quantos traumatismos dentários ocorrem durante a prática de futebol, ténis e desportos de combate (nos clubes desportivos ASD Caprino, ASD US Baldense, Asd consolini Calcio, ASD Tennis Caprino e Maraia Top Team) e se é possível preveni-los utilizando vários tipos de protetores bucais e também avaliar a opinião que os atletas têm sobre estas ferramentas de prevenção. Este estudo é do tipo epidemiológico observacional transversal. Foram incluídos 181 atletas, de ambos os sexos, com uma média de idade de 36,14 anos, em que 32.6% eram praticantes de ténis, 33.1% de futebol e 34.3% de desportos de combate. Quanto aos materiais e métodos de recolha de dados, foi utilizado um questionário on-line, com questões sobre características individuais, traumatismos dentários no histórico de desporto e sobre o uso de protetor bucal. Observou-se que 43.1% de atletas sofreram traumatismo dentário durante a prática desportiva. O trauma dentário mais comum foi a fratura (26%) e a causa dos traumas apresentados devem-se a impactos com outro adversário (29.3%). Da amostra, 50.3% utilizam protetor bucal para prevenir traumatismos, em que o protetor feito à medida é o protetor mais utilizado. Concluindo, podemos dizer que um número elevado de atletas de diversas modalidades sofreram traumatismos dentários durante a prática desportiva e muitos, após terem sofrido um trauma, preferem usar protetor bucal para se protegerem de traumas futuros. No entanto, ainda há desconhecimento por parte de outros atletas sobre a prevenção de traumas dentários.
The objective of this thesis is to analyze how many dental traumas occur during the practice of football, tennis and combat sports (at the sports clubs ASD Caprino, ASD US Baldense, Asd consolini Calcio, ASD Tennis Caprino and Maraia Top Team) and whether it is possible to prevent them using various types of mouthguards and also to evaluate the opinion that athletes have about these prevention tools. This study is a cross-sectional observational epidemiological study. 181 athletes were included, of both sexes, with an average age of 36.14 years, of which 32.6% were tennis players, 33.1% football and 34.3% combat sports. Regarding data collection materials and methods, an online questionnaire was used, with questions about individual characteristics, dental trauma in sports history and the use of mouthguards. It was observed that 43.1% of athletes suffered dental trauma during sports. The most common dental trauma was fracture (26%) and the cause of the trauma presented is due to impacts with another opponent (29.3%). Of the sample, 50.3% use a mouthguard to prevent trauma, with custom-made mouthguards being the most used protector. In conclusion, we can say that a high number of athletes from different sports have suffered dental trauma during sports and many, after suffering trauma, prefer to use a mouthguard to protect themselves from future trauma. However, other athletes are still unaware of the prevention of dental trauma.
