Popis: Spavanje predstavlja biološki proces nužan za očuvanje zdravlja i obavljanje svakodnevnih funkcija. Doktori dentalne medicine često su prvi među zdravstvenim djelatnicima koji primijete simptome poremećaja spavanja ili im se pacijenti sami požale na njih. Stanja poput sleep apneje, bruksizma i orofacijalne boli ozbiljno narušavaju pacijentovu kvalitetu života i dovode do teških posljedica. Poremećaji spavanja zahtijevaju multidisciplinaran pristup, a veliku ulogu u ranom prepoznavanju, prevenciji i terapiji imaju doktori dentalne medicine. Pri tome je potrebno razumjeti neurobiološke mehanizme u podlozi patoloških zbivanja povezanih s poremećajima spavanja i disanja, razjasniti neuromuskularnu povezanost žvačnog sustava, prepoznati etiološke i rizične faktore te pružiti pacijentima odgovarajuću terapiju u suradnji s drugim medicinskim djelatnicima. Sleeping is a biological process essential for preserving health and carrying out everyday bodily functions. Dental practitioners are often the first health workers to detect – or hear patients complain of – symptoms of sleeping disorders. Conditions such as sleep apnea, bruxism, or orofacial pain can seriously impact a patient’s quality of life and may lead to serious complications. Treating sleep disorders requires a multidisciplinary approach in which dental practitioners play a vital role in early detection, prevention, and treatment. This demands an understanding of the neurobiological mechanisms that underlie pathological occurrences connected with sleep disorders and breathing, a clarification of the neuromuscular coherence of the masticatory system, an identification of etiological and risk factors, and the right treatment in cooperation with other medical practitioners.
