| description | ABSTRACT. Facial disfigurement may cause psychological and psychic changes.
Peripheral facial paralysis can lead to dysfunctions of the dento-maxillary system
and important asymmetries in facial dynamics. The expression of feelings as
well as social relations can be disturbed. These trigger factors acting on the
developing psyche of a child may cause psychological distress. The pilot study
conducted in a group of 10 children with peripheral facial paralysis, with a
mean age of 13.4 years, showed that a psychological evaluation within two
weeks from the onset of the disease can evidence anxiety phenomena. These
changes should be known and treated, ensuring a positive support for the
adequate development of the child’s psyche and are important factors in the
evolution and maintenance of somatic pathology. |
