Abstract(s)
O objetivo do presente estudo foi avaliar a eficácia da terapia miofuncional na correção de distúrbios da musculatura mastigatória e perioral em pacientes pediátricos com maloclusões e disfunções miofuncionais.
Foi realizada uma pesquisa bibliográfica sistematizada nas bases de dados Pubmed, Pubmed central e B-ON. Foi seguido o método PICO como estratégia de pesquisa.
Foram encontrados 583 artigos e, após aplicação dos critérios de inclusão e exclusão, foram considerados com critérios de elegibilidade para a revisão 6 estudos. No total, foram avaliados 204 pacientes com tratamento miofuncional que consistiu na realização de exercícios diários e uso de aparelhos (Educador Pré-Ortodôntico, aparelhos removíveis e dispositivo froggymouth).
A terapia miofuncional consiste em atuar nos músculos mastigatórios e periorais e na correção da posição dos lábios e da língua, ensinando boas praxis às crianças. Permite induzir a estabilidade estomatognática, o restabelecimento de uma boa oclusão e o tratamento das disfunções na deglutição e na fonação.
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effectiveness of myofunctional therapy in correcting masticatory and perioral muscle disorders in pediatric patients with malocclusions and myofunctional dysfunctions. A systematic literature search was carried out in the Pubmed, central Pubmed and B-ON databases. The PICO method was followed as a research strategy. A total of 583 articles were found, and after applying the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 6 studies were considered with eligibility criteria for the review. In total, 204 patients were evaluated with myofunctional treatment that consisted of daily exercises and use of appliances (Pre-Orthodontic Educator, removable appliances and froggy mouth). Myofunctional therapy consists of acting on the masticatory and perioral muscles and correcting the position of the lips and tongue, giving children good practices. Allowing to induce stomatognathic stability, the reestablishment of a good occlusion and the treatment of disorders in swallowing and phonation.
