“…Some authors believe that this parafunctional activity of the masticatory system has a multifactorial etiology. 3,4,13,14 In addition to the relevant aspect of this study design being based on a substantial sample size, which involved 937 children in the primary dentition stage, several characteristics were analyzed. This study comprised the occlusal characteristics in the antero-posterior direction of the dental arches, the presence of the parafunctional habit of bruxism, restless sleep and headaches.…”

Além das modificações osteomioarticulares, a manifestação da DTM, em especial na infância pode estar associada a frequência de hábitos parafuncionais orais e viciosos que afetam a oclusão 8 músculos da mastigação, ombro e cervical 9,10 . Mediante a isto, tais alterações funcionais nessas estruturas podem ocasionar alterações na postura e a instabilidade da cervical 11 .…”
