RESUMEN
Los trastornos temporomandibulares (TTM) en pacientes pediátricos se han estudiado poco. La necesidad de realizar un diagnóstico oportuno hace que exista mayor interés por parte de los investigadores para orientar a los odontólogos. El objetivo del presente estudio fue identificar la presencia de trastornos temporomandibularesregistrados en las historiasclínicas de pacientesatendidos en la Escuelade Odontopediatría de la Universidad del Valle(Cali, Colombia).Se realizó un estudio observacional descriptivo y transversalpara evaluar presencia de trastornos temporomandibulares en pacientes, en edades entrecuatro y14 años, que asistieron a lasclínicasde dicha escuela durante 2013 y 2016. Se revisaron 712 historias; 56% de sexo masculino y 44% de sexo femenino. Los signos y síntomas asociados con losTTMmás frecuentes fueron el clic bilateral (36,4%), la desviación y deflexión mandibular (27,1%) y el dolor a la palpación (24,0%), mientras quela subluxación (1,6%) y el chasquido articular en apertura (0,8%) fueron los de menor presencia.Se concluyó que los trastornos de la articulación temporomandibular (ATM)cada vez son mayores.Es importante, por tanto, realizar investigaciones que involucren los factores de riesgo y/o desencadenantes, la intervención oportuna y el manejo multidisciplinario de esta alteración.
ABSTRACT
Temporomandibular joint disordersin children and adolescents have been studied infrequently. The need for a timely diagnosis makesit more interesting for researchers to perform studies that advise dentists. The objective of the study was to identify the frequency of mandibular disorders in the clinical records of children and adolescents treated at the Pediatric Dentistry Clinic of the Universidad Del Valle. A descriptive and cross-sectional observational study was carried out to evaluate the prevalence of temporomandibular disorders in patients inaged 4 to 14 years attending in the Pediatric Dentistry Clinics of the University of Valle (Cali-Colombia) during January 2013 and June 2016. 712 stories were reviewed; 397 (56%) were boys and 315 (44%) girls. 129 reports of the presence of some type of TMJ level, compatible with 18.11% of the sample studied. The most prevalent signs were bilateral click (36.4%), mandibular deviation and deflection (27.1%) and pain on palpation (24.0%). In contrast, subluxation (1.6%) and the jump in ATM at opening (0.8%) were the minors. It is concluded thatdisorders increasing daily, it is necessary to carry out investigations involving risk factors and / or triggers, timely or early intervention and the multidisciplinary management that this affectation requires.
