Introdução: A Reabilitação Neuro-Oclusal (RNO) é uma abordagem terapêutica da medicina estomatognática cujo objetivo é tratar precocemente a má-oclusão dentária em crianças, através de técnicas baseadas na neuroplasticidade e nos princípios do desenvolvimento craniofacial. Concentra-se no restabelecimento do equilíbrio de todas as estruturas que constituem o sistema, permitindo evitar o aparecimento de patologias dentárias, articulares e musculares. Atua excitando ou controlando de forma fisiológica os centros neurais de desenvolvimento, guiando desta forma o crescimento do sistema. É uma linha de pensamento a partir da qual emergiram várias técnicas e aparelhos, pouco invasivos para o indivíduo. Objetivo: Este método de abordagem dos problemas oclusais pode constituir uma verdadeira alternativa à Ortodontia convencional, uma vez que o seu uso em dentição decídua se revela interessante não só por acompanhar e dirigir o crescimento correto do sistema estomatognático de um indivíduo, como também por conseguir um equilíbrio morfológico e funcional duradouro, limitando desta forma possíveis futuras recidivas. Materiais e Métodos: Foi realizada uma Scope Review, a fim de observar o impacto do uso da RNO no tratamento de diferentes tipos de má-oclusão em crianças em fase de dentição decídua. Para tal, foi efetuada uma pesquisa em várias bases de dados, entre as quais PubMed, Cochrane Library, Scopus, SciELO, Semantic Scholar e ScienceDirect, a partir das quais foram extraídos 9 artigos. Resultados: Verificou-se uma resolução dos problemas oclusais em crianças apresentando dentição decídua, com patologias de má-oclusão, recorrendo a aparelhos e técnicas baseados nos princípios da RNO. Conclusões: O uso desta técnica numa idade precoce parece promissor para resolver problemas de má-oclusão em crianças, pela sua capacidade a redirigir o crescimento do sistema estomatognático. No entanto, a falta de evidências científicas nesta área não permite estabelecer conclusões certas. São necessários ainda muitos outros estudos para comprovar a eficacidade desta linha de pensamento.
Introduction: Neuro-Occlusal Rehabilitation (NOR) is a therapeutic approach to stomatognathic medicine which aims to treat dental malocclusion in children at an early stage, using techniques based on neuroplasticity and the principles of craniofacial development. It focuses on restoring the balance of all the structures that constitute the system, permitting to avoid the appearance of dental, joint, and muscular pathologies. It acts by physiologically exciting or controlling the neural centres of development, thus guiding the growth of the system. It is a line of thought from which various techniques and appliances have emerged, which are not very invasive for the individual. Objective: This method of approaching occlusal problems can be a real alternative to conventional Orthodontics, since its use in deciduous dentition is interesting not only because it accompanies and directs the correct growth of an individual's stomatognathic system, but also because it achieves a lasting morphological and functional balance, thus limiting possible future relapses. Materials and Methods: A Scope Review was carried out in order to observe the impact of the use of NOR in the treatment of different types of malocclusion in children in the deciduous dentition phase. To this end, a search was carried out in various databases, including PubMed, Cochrane Library, Scopus, SciELO, Semantic Scholar and ScienceDirect, from which 9 articles were extracted. Results: Occlusal problems were resolved in children with deciduous teeth and malocclusion pathologies, using appliances and techniques based on the principles of NOR. Conclusions: The use of this technique at an early age seems promising for solving malocclusion problems in children, due to its ability to redirect the growth of the stomatognathic system. However, the lack of scientific evidence in this area does not allow us to draw firm conclusions. Many more studies are needed to prove the effectiveness of this line of thinking.
