The changes that occurred daily in children contributed to the increase in cases of childhood bruxism. The objective is to report two cases of bruxism in children 11 years old and discuss the forms of treatment. Inclusion criteria were headache, myofascial pain and grinding of teeth nightly for more than 6 months. We used the questionnaire to the temporomandibular disorders diagnostic criteria (axis I and II of the RDC / TMD), the Sleep Assessment Questionnaire (SAQ), which were applied before and after 60 days of use of the occlusal splints from silicone and Pain Calendar. The proposed treatment was the use of silicone in the jaw plates with complete coverage of the occlusal surfaces. After two months there has been verified that the absence of nocturnal grinding report indicating a decrease in the intensity of nocturnal bruxism and improvement in reporting pain in muscles of the face and headaches. Treatment with the silicone in occlusal splints, used by children, were efficient to the bruxism control. There is need for a correct diagnosis and treatment plan as well as a multidisciplinary monitoring due to multifactorial etiology of bruxism. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
