Introdução: Uma má qualidade de sono é frequentemente reportada em pacientes com
disfunções temporomandibulares pela utilização do Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. Por sua
faixa etária, estilo de vida, alterações psico-emocionais, os jovens adultos, mais
especificamente estudantes, constituem uma população suscetível ao aparecimento de
disfunções temporomandibulares e deterioração da qualidade do sono.
Objetivos: Estudar a prevalência de disfunções temporomandibulares e alterações da qualidade
de sono numa amostra de estudantes universitários de medicina dentária e investigar a relação
entre os dois tipos de desordens.
Metodologia: 106 estudantes foram rastreados para disfunções temporomandibulares usando o
Eixo I dos Critérios de Diagnóstico para Disfunções Temporomandibulares e foram divididos
em grupos controlos, disfunções intracapsulares e disfunções dolorosas. O Pittsburgh Sleep
Quality Index foi aplicado para caracterizar a qualidade do sono. A relação entre disfunções
temporomandibulares e alterações da qualidade do sono foi investigada usando os testes
estatísticos Qui-quadrado, t-Student e ANOVA (a=0,05).
Resultados: 48,11% dos estudantes foram diagnosticados com algum tipo de disfunção
temporomandibular e 38,68% apresentaram má qualidade do sono. A prevalência da alteração
da qualidade do sono foi significativamente maior nos dois grupos de disfunções
temporomandibulares. Casos com sintomatologia dolorosa reportaram significativamente uma
maior deterioração da qualidade do sono comparativamente com grupo controlo.
Conclusão: Existe uma relação entre a presença de qualquer tipo de disfunção
temporomandibular e as alterações da qualidade do sono, sendo o grupo com sintomatologia
dolorosa mais fortemente afetado pela magnitude da deterioração.
Introduction: Poor sleep quality is often reported in patients with temporomandibular dysfunctions using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. Due to their age group, lifestyle, psychoemotional changes, young adults, and more specifically students, constitute a susceptible population to the onset of temporomandibular dysfunctions and sleep quality deterioration. Objectives: The aims of this study were to analyse the prevalence of temporomandibular dysfunctions and sleep quality alterations in a university students of dentistry’s sample and investigate the relation between the two types of disorder. Methodology: 106 students were screened for temporomandibular dysfunctions using the Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular Disorders Axis I, and divided in groups controls, pain-free and pain-related temporomandibular dysfunctions. The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index was performed to characterize the sleep quality. The relationship between temporomandibular dysfunctions and changes in sleep quality was investigate using the statistical tests Chi-square, Student-t and ANOVA (a=0,05). Results: 48.11% of the students were diagnosed with some type of temporomandibular dysfunction, and 38,68% had poor sleep quality. The prevalence of the sleep quality alteration was significantly higher in the two temporomandibular dysfunction groups. Pain-related cases reported significantly a greater sleep quality deterioration compared to controls. Conclusion: Existence of a relationship between the presence of any type of temporomandibular dysfunction and changes in sleep quality, the group pain-related temporomandibular dysfunctions being more strongly affected by the magnitude of the deterioration.
