Abstract
O diagnóstico e monitoramento do bruxismo de vigília continuam sendo desafios significativos para os profissionais de odontologia, devido à complexidade multifatorial do distúrbio e à falta de métodos padronizados e confiáveis. Este estudo completo dá continuidade a uma pesquisa piloto inicial e visa avaliar de forma abrangente um aplicativo móvel desenvolvido para detectar, monitorar e intervir no bruxismo de vigília em tempo real. O estudo inclui a implementação e testes extensivos de usabilidade e funcionalidade do aplicativo em uma amostra maior e diversificada de indivíduos, tanto com quanto sem bruxismo. A coleta de dados objetivos sobre os padrões de ranger de dentes durante o dia, obtidos através do aplicativo, permitiu uma análise detalhada e comparativa dos comportamentos dos participantes ao longo do tempo. Os resultados demonstram que o uso do aplicativo não só melhora a precisão no diagnóstico do bruxismo de vigília, como também facilita intervenções personalizadas e eficazes, refletindo em melhorias significativas na qualidade de vida dos pacientes. A tecnologia empregada mostrou-se eficaz na obtenção de dados confiáveis, contribuindo para uma melhor compreensão do distúrbio e auxiliando os profissionais de saúde na tomada de decisões clínicas informadas. Além disso, o estudo oferece insights valiosos para a implementação do aplicativo em contextos clínicos e de autocuidado, propondo recomendações para futuras pesquisas e aprimoramentos tecnológicos. A eficácia comprovada do aplicativo ressalta seu potencial como ferramenta inovadora na prática odontológica, contribuindo para avanços significativos na gestão do bruxismo de vigília.
Diagnosing and monitoring wakefulness bruxism remain significant challenges for dental professionals, due to the multifaceted complexity of the disorder and the lack of standardized and reliable methods. This thorough study follows on from an initial pilot research and aims to comprehensively evaluate a mobile application developed to detect, monitor, and intervene in wakefulness bruxism in real time. The study includes the implementation and extensive testing of the app's usability and functionality in a larger and diverse sample of individuals, both with and without bruxism. The collection of objective data on teeth grinding patterns during the day, obtained through the app, allowed for a detailed and comparative analysis of the participants' behaviors over time.The results demonstrate that the use of the app not only improves the accuracy in the diagnosis of wakefulness bruxism, but also facilitates personalized and effective interventions, reflecting in significant improvements in the quality of life of patients. The technology employed has been shown to be effective in obtaining reliable data, contributing to a better understanding of the disorder and assisting healthcare professionals in making informed clinical decisions. In addition, the study offers valuable insights for the implementation of the app in clinical and self-care settings, proposing recommendations for future research and technological improvements. The proven effectiveness of the app underscores its potential as an innovative tool in dental practice, contributing to significant advances in the management of wakefulness bruxism.
