Abstract

OBJETIVO: investigar as possíveis alterações de fala, mastigação e deglutição em usuários de aparelhos ortodônticos com recursos intraorais fixos no palato. MÉTODO: foram avaliados 28 pacientes de ambos os sexos, na faixa etária de 10 a 24 anos, em tratamento no Centro de Reabilitação Estética Orofacial em Campinas. Tais pacientes foram avaliados por fonoaudiólogas antes da colocação do aparelho e após trinta dias de uso de aparelho ortodôntico com recurso fixo. Todos os sujeitos foram avaliados previamente por ortodontistas e apresentaram indicação de colocação do recurso intraoral. O exame fonoaudiológico foi composto pela avaliação da mastigação, deglutição e fala, segundo protocolo especifico de motricidade orofacial, e de teste de fala na área de fonética. Os testes estatísticos aplicados foram: Teste de ANOVA, teste T-Student Pareado, Teste de Igualdade de duas proporções e Intervalo de Confiança para a média. Foram considerados significantes associações com p-valor < 0,05 . RESULTADOS: para a amostra analisada, não houve alterações de mastigação e deglutição estatisticamente significantes após um mês de uso dos aparelhos selecionados. Na fala, 64,3% da amostra não apresentou alterações, mas em 25% dos pacientes observou-se a presença de distorção de grupos consonantais na presença de aparelhos do tipo disjuntor. CONCLUSÃO: o uso de aparelhos fixos com recursos intraorais, provoca modificações estatisticamente significantes somente na fala.
