Abstract(s)
A má oclusão dentária caracterizada pela Classe I molar é um problema ortodôntico comum que afeta crianças e adolescentes. Esta caracteriza-se por uma relação normal do molar permanente superior e inferior, mas com desalinhamentos dentários, rotações e/ou discrepâncias no arco dentário que afetam a estética e a função oral. A presente pesquisa investiga a sua prevalência na Clínica Pedagógica de Medicina Dentária da Universidade Fernando Pessoa, visando identificar fatores associados e compreender a sua distribuição nesta população selecionada.
Objetivo: Analisar a prevalência da má oclusão dentária de Classe I em crianças e adolescentes atendidos na Clínica Pedagógica de Medicina Dentária da Universidade Fernando Pessoa. A pesquisa também procurou identificar os principais fatores associados a essa condição, contribuindo para uma melhor compreensão da sua incidência e distribuição nessa população.
Metodologia: O estudo foi conduzido com uma amostra de 180 pacientes com idades entre 6 e 15 anos. A coleta de dados foi realizada através da análise dos ficheiros clínicos dos pacientes, focando-se nas informações de anamnese. Utilizou-se o software NEWSOFTDS18 para a extração e análise dos dados.
Resultados: Indicaram uma prevalência significativa de má oclusão de Classe I na amostra estudada, com 43,4% nos pacientes do género masculino e 41,5% no género feminino nas relações molares. Na relação canina, a Classe I representou 26% nos rapazes e 37,04% nas raparigas.
Conclusão: A má oclusão de Classe I é a condição mais prevalente nesta população odontopediátrica. Estes dados sublinham a importância do diagnóstico precoce e da intervenção ortodôntica, contribuindo para estratégias de prevenção e tratamento mais eficazes.
Class I molar dental malocclusion is a common orthodontic issue among children and adolescents. It is characterized by a normal molar relationship between upper and lower permanent teeth, but with dental misalignments, rotations, and/or discrepancies in the dental arch affecting oral aesthetics and function. This study investigates its prevalence at the Pedagogical Clinic of Dental Medicine at Fernando Pessoa University, aiming to identify associated factors and understand its distribution in this selected population. Objective: To analyze the prevalence of Class I dental malocclusion in children and adolescents treated at the Pedagogical Clinic of Dental Medicine at Fernando Pessoa University and to identify associated factors, contributing to a better understanding of its incidence and distribution. Methodology: The study was conducted with a sample of 180 patients aged 6 to 15 years. Data were collected through analysis of clinical records, focusing on anamnesis information. The NEWSOFTDS18 software was used for data extraction and analysis. Results: A significant prevalence of Class I malocclusion was found: 43.4% in male patients and 41.5% in female patients in molar relationships. In canine relationships, 26% were Class I in boys and 37.04% in girls. Conclusion: Class I malocclusion is the most prevalent condition in the pediatric population served by the clinic. Early diagnosis and appropriate orthodontic intervention are essential to avoid persistent functional and structural issues.
