ABSTRACT

The bruxism in the childhood is a multifactorial condition defined by the act of involuntarily clenching or grinding the teeth. When not interfered early can cause damage to the stomatognathic system, causing orofacial changes. Thus, this article aims to address the different treatment options for bruxism in children, this is an integrative review conducted through the SciELO and PubMed databases, a total of 14 articles were included, respecting the inclusion and exclusion criteria. In general, the treatment should be performed in a multidisciplinary manner, including the addition of the dental surgeon, physician, psychologist, physiotherapist and speech therapist, in order to improve the quality of life of the individual. By excluding possible determinants of the disease, the aim is to promote the reduction of parafunctional activity. For this, it can use occlusal plaques, medications such as analgesics, anti-inflammatory drugs, benzodiazepines, muscle relaxants, as well as herbal medicines, as well as massage therapy, cryolipolysis, acupuncture, among others. However, further studies need to prove the effectiveness of such therapies. Therefore, it can be concluded that, until now, what can be offered is a palliative and multidisciplinary treatment that enables the reduction of pathological complications and thus favoring the child’s health status.
