Abstract

Objectives

As a result of the stress they are subjected to, Air Force pilots have a higher incidence of oral parafunctions, such as bruxism, than the normal population. Furthermore, their duties are associated with particular stress on the craniocervical-mandibular system. The purpose of this report is to analyze the case of an Air Force pilot who is receiving gnathological postural treatment to achieve an improved occlusal balance.

Materials and methods

The patient was selected from the large population of Air Force pilots being treated at the “A. Mosso” Legal Medicine Institute in Milan. The protocol provided for clinical assessment of the stomatognathic apparatus and postural system and instrumental analysis that included computerized occlusion analysis, the Postural Stabilometric Test, and the Dynamic Posturographic Test (EquiTest).

Results

The Dynamic Posturographic Test (EquiTest) score recorded with the splint inserted in the oral cavity showed very high postural and vestibular performance.

Discussion and conclusions

The clinical-instrumental and gnathological postural treatment used on Italian Air Force pilots protects the masticatory system from dental abrasion and, in this particular case, it seemed to improve the patient's posture as reflected by the Dynamic Posturographic Test (EquiTest) scores.

军事空军飞行员的姿势和姿势评估:一个案例

目的:由于空军飞行员所承受的压力，他们患磨牙等口腔功能障碍的几率比普通人高。此外，他们的职责与颅颈下颌系统的特殊压力有关。本报告的目的是分析一名空军飞行员接受颌位治疗以改善咬合平衡的病例。材料和方法患者从在美国空军基地接受治疗的大量空军飞行员中挑选出来。米兰法律医学研究所。该方案提供了对口颌器械和体位系统的临床评估和仪器分析，包括计算机化咬合分析、体位稳定测试和动态体位测量测试(EquiTest)。结果在口腔内置入夹板记录的动态姿势测试(EquiTest)得分显示出非常高的姿势和前庭功能。讨论和结论在意大利空军飞行员身上使用的临床器械和病理体位治疗可以保护咀嚼系统免受牙齿磨损，在这个特殊的病例中，动态姿势测试(EquiTest)分数显示，它似乎改善了患者的姿势。
