Objetivo: Avaliar a prevalência de impactos dos problemas bucais na qualidade de vida e associação com variáveis sociodemográficas, clínicas e utilização de serviços por adultos e idosos de Marechal Floriano, ES. Métodos: Este estudo transversal utilizou uma amostra aleatória de 237 indivíduos. Foram utilizados roteiros para a coleta de dados incluindo o perfil do impacto de saúde bucal (OHIP-14). Os testes qui-quadrado e exato de Fischer (p<0,05) verificaram associações entre cada variável independente e as dimensões do OHIP. Para avaliar a força da associação entre evento e exposição, foi calculado o Odds-radio. A análise de regressão logística foi realizada para valores significantes até 10%. O pacote estatístico utilizado foi SPSS versão 15. Resultados: A maior percepção de impacto foi encontrada em indivíduos com mais de 40 anos (OR= 2,37), com necessidade declarada de prótese parcial removível (OR= 2,771), e de prótese total removível (OR= 2,292). Conclusão: A prevalência de impacto observada foi de 35% e associada à faixa etária e necessidade declarada de prótese. Indicadores subjetivos devem ser utilizados de forma complementar aos indicadores objetivos para determinar a necessidade de tratamento, melhorando, a saúde bucal e a qualidade de vida das pessoas.

Conclusion: The impact prevalence was of 35% and showed association with age and partial and full dentures declared need. The impact caused by oral health problems was significant. Subjective indicators must be used in conjunction with objective indicators to determine population’s treatment needs, improving oral health and quality of life.
