Longitudinal study of habits leading to malocclusion development in childhood

Abstract: BackgroundThe increased prevalence of malocclusions represents a secular trend attributed to the interaction of genetic and environmental factors. The analysis of factors related to the causes of these changes is essential for planning public health policies aimed at preventing and clinically intercepting malocclusion. This study investigated the sucking habits, nocturnal mouth breathing, as well as the relation of these factors with malocclusion.MethodsThis is a longitudinal study in which 80 mother-child pai… Show more

“…Compared with other types of nutritive and non-nutritive sucking, thumb/finger sucking was less common, at an overall rate of 15.1%, similar to that reported by Littlefield [35] of 17% for English children published 60 years ago, and Moimaz et al [36] of 15% for 12-month-old children in Brazil. Thumb/finger sucking has been associated with an increased risk of open bite and overjet [36], which has in turn been associated with speech errors, particularly on /s, t/ [37].…”

“…Thumb/finger sucking has been associated with an increased risk of open bite and overjet [36], which has in turn been associated with speech errors, particularly on /s, t/ [37]. It would therefore be valuable for future research to investigate the occlusion of children with PI and their production and error types for /s, t/ compared with children with other types of SSD, particularly articulation impairment characterised by distortion errors on /s/ such as an interdental lisp.…”

“…Longitudinal studies allow a better understanding between presence of malocclusion and triggering factors in order to plan actions that might as well treat and prevent the onset of the disease, since the determining factors of malocclusion are well known in literature [9].…”
