INTRODUÇÃO: A deformidade dentofacial é definida como uma alteração no crescimento ósseo do sistema estomatognático que conduz a alterações no desenvolvimento dos maxilares. Esta condição pode levar a problemas funcionais, degenerativos, estéticos e psicossociais. Deste modo, estas deformidades necessitam de um estudo multidisciplinar que abranja conhecimentos cirúrgicos, ortodônticos, médico-dentários gerais, psicológicos, biológicos e fisiopatológicos. A camuflagem é uma das opções de tratamento após o surto de crescimento e irá produzir uma compensação dentária relativamente à discrepância esquelética. OBJETIVOS: Devido à índole incapacitante destas deformidades, este estudo tem como objetivos avaliar a qualidade de vida e a autoestima em pacientes com indicação para Tratamento- ortodôntico- cirúrgico- ortognático, submetidos a camuflagem ortodôntica e verificar o impacto do género, idade, grau de escolaridade e deformidade esquelética na qualidade de vida e a autoestima destes pacientes. MATERIAIS E MÉTODOS: Foram aplicados 2 questionários - Questionário de avaliação da qualidade de vida da Organização Mundial de Saúde - WHOQoL-Bref e Escala de autoestima Global de Rosenberg – RSES a 23 pacientes com indicação para Tratamento- ortodôntico-cirúrgico-ortognático, submetidos a camuflagem ortodôntica (grupo de esctudo) e a 22 pacientes sujeitos a tratamento exclusivamente ortodôntico sem indicação cirúrgica (grupo de controlo). RESULTADOS: Não foram encontradas diferenças estatisticamente significativas na qualidade de vida e autoestima entre o grupo de estudo e o grupo de controlo. Os participantes do grupo de estudo com classe II esquelética apresentaram uma qualidade de vida diminuída a nível do domínio psicológico e meio ambiente relativamente aos participantes do grupo de estudo com classe III esquelética. CONCLUSÕES: O género, a idade e o nível educacional parecem não influenciar a qualidade de vida e autoestima em pacientes com deformidade dentofacial submetidos a camuflagem ortodôntica. No entanto, a deformidade esquelética subjacente influencia a qualidade de vida destes pacientes.
INTRODUCTION: Dentofacial deformity is defined as a change in bone growth of the stomatognathic system that leads to changes in the development of the jaws. This condition can lead to functional, degenerative, aesthetic and psychosocial problems. Thus, these deformities need a multidisciplinary study that includes surgical, orthodontic, general medical, psychological, biological and pathophysiological knowledge. Camouflage is one of the treatment options after the growth spurt and will produce dental compensation for skeletal discrepancy. AIMS: Taking into account the incapacitating nature of these deformities, this study aims to measure quality of life and self-esteem in patients with indication for Orthodontic-Surgical-Orthognathic Treatment, submitted to orthodontic camouflage and to verify the impact of gender, age, education level and skeletal deformity on the quality of life and the self-esteem of these patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Two questionnaires were applied - World Health Organization quality of life assessment questionnaire (WHOQoL-Bref) and Rosenberg's Global Self-Esteem Scale (RSES) to 23 patients with indication for Orthodontic-Surgical-Orthognathic Treatment, submitted to orthodontic camouflage (study group) and 22 patients undergoing exclusively orthodontic treatment without surgical indication (control group). RESULTS: There were no statistically significant differences in quality of life and self-esteem between the study group and the control group. The participants in the study group with skeletal class II showed a lower quality of life in terms of the psychological domain and the environment compared to the participants in the study group with skeletal class III. CONCLUSIONS: Gender, age and educational level do not seem to influence quality of life and self-esteem in patients with dentofacial deformity submitted to orthodontic camouflage. However, the underlying skeletal deformity influences the quality of life of these patients.
