          Abstract

          A respiração oral pode acarretar alterações estruturais e funcionais do sistema estomatognático. OBJETIVO: Verificar a presença de alterações das funções de respiração, mastigação, deglutição e fala em pacientes com rinite alérgica e relacioná-as com a intensidade dos sintomas da rinite. MATERIAL E MÉTODOS: Para este estudo prospectivo, foram avaliados 170 pacientes com faixa etária entre 6 e 55 anos de idade. Todos os pacientes passaram por avaliação otorrinolaringológica e fonoaudiológica. Foram colhidos os dados referentes às funções de respiração, mastigação, deglutição e fala e dados da consulta médica. Os dados foram comparados e analisados estatisticamente. RESULTADOS: A diferença dos escores de sinais e sintomas entre GR e GC mostrou-se estatisticamente significante. Quando comparada a presença de alteração nas funções estudadas entre GR e GC, foi observada diferença estatisticamente significante no modo respiratório e nos padrões de mastigação e deglutição. A correlação existente entre o escore de obstrução nasal e a presença de alteração funcional foi significante na análise do modo respiratório e do padrão de mastigação. CONCLUSÃO: O paciente com rinite alérgica apresenta alterações funcionais do sistema estomatognático e o aumento do escore de obstrução nasal pode ser considerado um indicativo destas alterações.

          Mouth breathing can cause structural and functional alterations to the stomatognathic system. AIM: the aim of this investigation was to study breathing, chewing, swallowing and speaking alterations present in patients with allergic rhinitis and associate it to rhinitis symptom intensity. MATERIALS AND METHODS: 170 patients between the ages of 6 and 55 years were prospectively evaluated in this study, all of them underwent both otorhinolaryngological and speech evaluation. Data on breathing, chewing, swallowing and speaking was gathered, as well as data from the medical evaluation. The data was compared and statistically analyzed. RESULTS: the difference in signs and symptoms' score between GR and GC was significant. We noticed a significant difference between GR and GC in breathing, chewing and swallowing. We observed a significant association between the score of nasal obstruction and the intensity of breathing and chewing alterations. CONCLUSION: patients with allergic rhinitis have functional alterations in their stomatognathic system and an increase in nasal obstruction scores can be considered as a indication of such alterations.

            Allergic rhinitis in children : diagnosis and management strategies.

            The incidence of allergic rhinitis has been increasing for the last few decades, in keeping with the rising incidence of atopy worldwide. Allergic rhinitis has a prevalence of up to 40% in children, although it frequently goes unrecognized and untreated. This can have enormous negative consequences, particularly in children, since it is associated with numerous complications and comorbidities that have a significant health impact on quality of life. In fact, allergic rhinitis is considered to be a risk factor for asthma. There are numerous signs of allergic rhinitis, particularly in children, that can alert an observant clinician to its presence. Children with severe allergic rhinitis often have facial manifestations of itching and obstructed breathing, including a gaping mouth, chapped lips, evidence of sleep deprivation, a long face, dental malloclusions, and the allergic shiner, allergic salute, or allergic crease. The medical history is extremely important as it can reveal information regarding a family history of atopy and the progression of atopy in the child. It is also important to identify the specific triggers of allergic rhinitis, because one of the keys to successful management is the avoidance of triggers. A tripartite treatment strategy that embraces environmental control, immunotherapy, and pharmacologic treatment is the most comprehensive approach. Immunotherapy has come to be viewed as potentially prophylactic, capable of altering the course of allergic rhinitis. The most recent guidelines for the management of allergic rhinitis issued by the WHO recommend a tiered approach that integrates diagnosis and treatment, in which allergic rhinitis is subclassified both by frequency, as either intermittent or persistent, and by severity, as either mild or moderate to severe. Oral or topical antihistamines and intranasal corticosteroids are the mainstay of pharmacologic therapy for allergic rhinitis, depending upon its severity, and several agents have been approved for use in children aged 5 years old and younger.
