PURPOSE: To study the frequency of cervical spine dysfunction (CCD) signs and symptoms in subjects with without temporomandibular disorder (TMD) to assess craniocervical posture influence on TMD CCD coexistence. METHODS: Participants were 71 women (19 35 years), assessed about presence; 34 constituted group (G1) 37 comprised (G2). The was evaluated through Craniocervical Dysfunction Index Cervical Mobility Index. Subjects also questioned pain. by cephalometric analysis. RESULTS: There no...
Generalized joint hypermobility (GJH) has been considered a predisposing factor for the development of temporomandibular disorder (TMD). AIM: To evaluate clinical and psychosocial aspects in individuals diagnosed with TMD or without GJH. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Clinical experimental study, which enrolled 34 women, from 18 to 35 years age by RDC/TMD. The GJH was assessed Beighton score volunteers were broken down into 2 groups: (n = 22) 12). RESULTS: We found high percentage (64. 71%). All...
Photogrammetry is a valuable tool for the diagnosis and measurement of postural changes, but lack standardization anatomical references angular measures impairs comparison between studies compromises reliability results. The objective this study was to evaluate inter- intraexaminer proposed by SAPO posture assessment software (v. 0.68). Twenty-four subjects were photographed in standing position according recommendations software. Three examiners (A, B C) experienced use analyzed images...
Aim: To investigate the correlation between craniocervical posture measurements obtained by biophotogrammetric and cephalometric analysis. Methods: 80 women aged 19 35 years were evaluated methods. The variables were: CVA (position of flexion/extension head) CPL (forward head posture) CVT/EVT ratio (cervical column curvature). For analysis, photography analyzed in right profile being two angles related to forward (A1 A2) one flexion-extension position (FE). It was also measured curvature...
: This study was conducted to identify variables associated with mouth breathing diagnosis in children, based on multidisciplinary domains. 119 six 12 years old, underwent anamnesis, speech therapy (orofacial structures and stomatognathic functions), otorhinolaryngologic (OTRL) clinical endoscopic examinations, dental (occlusion) physiotherapy (body posture nasal patency) assessments. Nasal patency evaluated using Peak Inspiratory Flow (PNIF) the Obstruction Symptom Evaluation (NOSE) scale....
OBJETIVO: Comparar as dimensões do palato duro de crianças respiradoras nasais, orais por etiologia obstrutiva e viciosa. MÉTODOS: A amostra foi composta 76 crianças, 37 meninos 39 meninas, com média idade 9,32±1,16 anos, distribuídas conforme diagnóstico modo respiratório da respiração oral. Foram obtidos modelos em gesso arco dental maxilar para a realização medidas paquímetro digital. obtidas transversais, verticais comprimento anteroposterior duro. comparação das entre os grupos...
This article studied the relationship among respiratory, masticatory and cervical muscles factors that contribute for TMD. It consists in a review of studies approaching dysfunctional breathing TMD, enclosing mouth syndrome, anxiety, respiratory mechanics changes, diaphragmatic muscular dystonia overuse accessory inspiratory muscles. also stresses importance evaluation multiprofessional intervention TMD patients.
To evaluate chewing and swallowing functions in women with without temporomandibular disorder (TMD) investigate the position of mandible hyoid bone as they are important structures development these functions.Seventy were evaluated relation to TMD diagnosis according Research Diagnostic Criteria, among them, 34 composed study group (SG) 36 took part control (CG). Evaluation masticatory was performed Protocol Orofacial Myofunctional Scores. Mandibular variables measured by cephalometric...
Purpose: To investigate the influence of breathing mode and nasal patency in dimensions hard palate by comparing mouth (MB) (NB) adults. Methods: Seventy-seven individuals, distributed into MB group (n=38) NB (n=39), both genders aged between 18 30 years old, took part study. The respiratory diagnosis was based on anamnesis, physical characteristics, otorhinolaryngological examination. volunteers were evaluated terms patency, with a peak inspiratory flow (PNIF) meter, obstruction symptoms,...
Mouth breathing has been associated with severe impact on the development of stomatognathic system.This paper aims to analyze electromyographical findings and patterns electrical activity anterior temporal masseter muscles in mouth nasal children.The patients were divided into two groups: breathers (n=17) (n=12). The children underwent bilateral electromyographic examination at maximal intercuspal position during usual mastication. A Myosystem Br-1 electromyograph 12 acquisition channels,...
Este estudo visou verificar o efeito da técnica de reeducação postural global (RPG) nas condições físicas, psicológicas e psicossociais, assim como no alinhamento corporal, indivíduos com disfunção temporomandibular (DTM) associada a desvio postural. Participaram 20 DTM confirmado por exame físico, avaliados, antes depois do tratamento RPG, pelos critérios diagnósticos desordens temporomandibulares (RDC/TMD, na sigla em inglês) quanto às medidas angulares, fotogrametria digital. O consistiu...
OBJETIVO: Verificar o tipo facial e a postura de cabeça crianças respiradoras nasais, orais etiologia obstrutiva viciosa, correlacionar índice morfológico da face à angulação no plano sagital. MÉTODOS: Participaram 59 com idades entre 8 anos 11 10 meses. Todas passaram por triagem fonoaudiológica, avaliação otorrinolaringológica, exame nasofibrofaringoscopia, que possibilitou constituição três grupos: respiração nasal - 15 crianças; oral 22 viciosa crianças. Foram mensuradas altura largura...
RESUMO A Síndrome do Respirador Oral é caracterizada por um conjunto de sinais e sintomas que podem estar presentes em indivíduos substituem o modo adequado eficiente da respiração nasal pelo respiratório oral ou misto, período igual superior a seis meses. O misto pode associado mudanças na função mecânica ventilatória. Esta revisão tem como objetivo investigar mais profundamente as consequências pulmonar músculos respiratórios, ressaltando desenvolvimento tais alterações desde infância até...
Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is characterized by repeated episodes of upper airway obstruction during sleep.The objective this study to verify the craniofacial characteristics and craniocervical posture OSA healthy subjects, determining possible relationships with apnea/hypopnea index (AHI).This case-control evaluated 21 subjects OSA, who comprised group (OSAG), constituted control (CG). Cephalometry analyzed head measurements, air space. Head was also assessed means photogrammetry.The...
PURPOSE: To investigate the process of fatigue in orbicularis oris muscles by analyzing median frequency electromyographic signal and referred time, according to breathing mode facial pattern. METHODS: The participants were 70 children, aged 6 12 years, who matched established criteria. be classified as 36 nasal-breathing 34 mouth-breathing they underwent speech-language, otorhinolaryngologic, cephalometric evaluation. For assessment, children had sustain lip dumbbells weighing 40, 60, 100 g...
Introduction Mouth breathing can affect the functions of respiratory systems and quality life. For this reason, children who grow up with stimulus may have implications on physical psychological aspects at adult age.Objective To evaluate childhood mouth-breathing consequences for ventilatory function life age.Materials methods Prospective, observational cross-sectional study 24 adults, between 18 30 years old, mouth breathers during childhood, comprised group (CMB). The nasal-breathing (CNB)...
Nasal obstruction is a common symptom in childhood, related to rhinitis and pharyngeal tonsil hypertrophy. In the presence of nasal obstruction, patency may be reduced, breathing replaced by mouth breathing. Orofacial otorhinolaryngologic changes are this mode. Objective evaluation upper airways obtained through measurement.To compare otorhinolaryngologic-orofacial features children.One hundred twenty three children, 6-12 year-old, both sexes underwent speech therapy evaluation, according...
A respiração bucal tem sido estudada por causar sérios efeitos no desenvolvimento do sistema estomatognático.
