Introdução: a má oclusão de classe II consiste no desequilíbrio da relação entre as arcadas, podendo ser
causada por deficiência mandibular, protrusão maxilar, ou ambas, sendo caracterizada pelo molar inferior
distalmente posicionado em relação ao molar superior. Objetivo: este estudo tem o ...
RESUMO Objetivo Este estudo visou validar o Protocolo de Avaliação Miofuncional Orofacial MBGR para adultos com DTM. Método Participaram 30 adultos, sendo 15 com DTM (deslocamento de disco com redução segundo o Research Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular Disorders) e 15 Controles. O process...
Abstract Objectives To evaluate the acoustic properties of the /s/ sound in individuals with different occlusion types and to investigate relationships between these properties and cephalometric measurements. Methodology Sixty patients were divided into three groups based on malocclusion. Group 1 inclu...
ABSTRACT: The Stomatognathic System (SS) is an integrated and coordinated morphofunctional unit, consisting of skeletal, muscular, angiological, nervous, glandular and dental structures that work in harmony to perform different functions such as chewing, swallowing, speaking, breathing, tasting and esthe...
Abstract There is a lack of clinical evidence on mandibular overdentures (MOD) supported by a single implant. Objective: To compare patient satisfaction and masticatory performance in MOD supported by one versus two implants in a two-group parallel randomized clinical trial. Material and Methods: Twent...
Introduction: Disc displacement without reduction with limited opening is an intracapsular biomechanical disorder involving the condyle-disc complex. With the mouth closed, the disc is in an anterior position in relation to the condylar head and does not reduce with mouth opening. This disorder is associ...
The present investigation was performed to assess the biomechanical repercussion of protein malnutrition imposed on rats between the 26th and 135th days of postnatal life on the mandible, which is not a weight-bearing bone but supports the loads related to the masticatory activity. Female Wistar rats age...
