Resumo: | Purpose: The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence of bruxism and emotional stress in military policemen and test their association. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in members of the Military Police of the State of Maranhão in São Luís, MA. Sample was composed by 81 male subjects (mean age = 33.5 years). Bruxism was diagnosed according to clinical criteria – presence of aligned wear facets associated with at least one of the following signs and symptoms: selfreport of bruxism grinding sounds, pain to palpation of the masseter and temporal muscles, report of morning masticatory muscle discomfort and/or masseter muscle hypertrophy. To diagnose stress the Stress Symptoms Inventory was applied. Results: The prevalence of bruxism was 33.3% and frequency of emotional stress was 13.6%. The stress prevalence in individuals with bruxism was significantly higher than that in subjects without bruxism (Chi-square test, P=0.003). Conclusion: Within the limitations of this study, it can be concluded that stress was associated with bruxism in this sample of policemen. Key words: Bruxism; stress; policemen |

Metodologia: Um estudo transversal foi conduzido na cidade de São Luís, MA, com membros da Polícia Militar do Estado do Maranhão. Foram selecionados 81 policiais do sexo masculino (idade média = 33,5 anos), os quais foram diagnosticados como bruxistas de acordo com os critérios clínicos: presença de facetas de desgaste dental associadas ao auto-relato de ranger de dentes, sensibilidade dolorosa nos músculos masseter e temporal e desconforto na musculatura da mandíbula ao despertar. Para o diagnóstico de estresse foi aplicado o Inventário de Sintomas do Stress (Stress Symptoms Inventory – SSI). Resultados: A prevalência de bruxismo foi de 33,3% e a de estresse emocional, 13,6%. A prevalência de estresse em indivíduos com bruxismo foi significativamente maior em relação aos indivíduos sem bruxismo (teste qui-quadrado, P= 0,003). Conclusão: Dentro das limitações do estudo, concluiu-se que o estresse esteve associado à presença de bruxismo nesta amostra de policiais militares.
