Brief Summary:
It is essential that athletes have perfect general health. Oral health plays an important role in this healthy framework necessary so that the results that must be achieved by athletes are not influenced. Inflammatory and / or infectious processes such as periodontal disease, caries, or even joint problems such as temporomandibular joint dysfunction can affect performance or impair participation in training and competitions.
Detailed Description:
The objective of this longitudinal clinical study will be to evaluate the effect of dental treatment on individuals who practice physical activities through physical parameters of strength, speed and resistance. According to an initial survey, about 120 individuals should be examined. Clinical parameters such as decayed, lost and / or filled dental index and periodontal parameters such as probing depth (PS), clinical level of insertion (NCI), plaque index (IP) and bleeding index (IS) will be evaluated . Physical tests of strength, speed and resistance should be performed and periodontal therapy should be performed according to the needs presented by each individual. After 90 days, new clinical examinations and physical tests should be performed. The results obtained should be tabulated and analyzed. The investigators believe that individuals with oral inflammation / infection, the physical performance should be higher after performing periodontal therapy. Pro inflammatory cytokines present in high concentrations in the presence of periodontal disease can influence fatigue and difficulty in recovering from injuries, variables so important in an athlete's life.
