Abstract(s)
Objetivo: Realizar uma revisão da literatura sobre bruxismo na infância. Será focado predominantemente o bruxismo noturno, uma vez que é o mais prevalente em crianças.
Metodologia: Para a elaboração desta revisão narrativa foi efetuada uma pesquisa de artigos publicados nos últimos 5 anos nas bases de dados eletrónicas: B-on, PubMed e Cochrane. Da pesquisa resultou um total de 109 artigos dos quais foram selecionados 15 artigos e, posteriormente, acrescentados 10.
Tópico abordado: O bruxismo é uma atividade repetitiva dos músculos da mastigação manifestando-se por apertar/ranger os dentes e/ou pelo ato de travar/empurrar a mandibula. A sua etiologia é multifatorial e é regulado pelo sistema nervoso central. Frequentemente é observado em crianças, nem sempre é considerado patológico, mas pode ser um sinal alarme.
É importante um diagnóstico correto e precoce e o acompanhamento deve ser transdisciplinar.

Methology: For the elaboration of this narrative review, a search of articles published in the last 5 years in the electronic databases was performed: B-on, Pubmed and Cochrane. The research resulted in a total of 109 articles from which 15 articles were selected and 10 more have been added. Topic covered: Bruxism is a repetitive activity of the masticatory muscles manifesting itself by clenching/ grinding the teeth and/ or by the act of locking or pushing the jaw. Its etiology is multifactorial and is regulated by the central nervous system. Often seen in children, it is not always considered pathological, but it can be an alarm signal. Correct and early diagnosis is important and monitoring must be done with a transdisciplinary team.
