Resumo:
Objetivo: Verificar a condição bucal e a capacidade mastigatória autopercebidas em idosos longevos (?80 anos). Métodos: Foram utilizados dados do estudo multicêntrico FIBRA. A amostra foi composta por 2.341 indivíduos com ausência de déficit cognitivo, com idade ?65 anos, no período entre 2008 e 2009, onde os idosos foram submetidos à coleta de dados. Quanto ao desfecho, a idade foi dicotomizada em 65-79 e 80 anos ou mais. A associação entre longevidade e as variáveis sociodemográficas, comportamentais, de saúde geral e bucal e a capacidade mastigatória autopercebida foram avaliadas pela regressão de Poisson. Resultados: Dados completos disponíveis para 2.126 idosos. A idade média foi 70,91 (DP=±4,11) anos entre os idosos jovens e 82,70 (DP=±2,61) entre os idosos longevos. A amostra de idosos com idade ?80 anos foi de 11,7%. Baixa escolaridade, estado civil solteiro e ausência de trabalho estiveram associados à longevidade, assim como autorrelato de não possuir dentes naturais e dificuldade ou dor ao mastigar alimentos duros. Conclusões: Os resultados sugerem a associação entre longevidade com características sociodemográficas e de saúde bucal.

Abstract:
Aim: To verify the oral health conditions and self perceived chewing ability in the oldest old (≥80 years). Methods: A multicenter FIBRA study data were used. The sample consisted of 2.341 individuals with no cognitive impairment, aged ≥65 years, between 2008 and 2009, the elderly were subjected to data collection. Regarding the outcome, age was dichotomized into 65-79 and 80 and over. The association between longevity and the sociodemographic and behavioral variables, general and oral health and self-perceived chewing ability was assessed by Poisson regression. Results: Complete data available for 2.126 seniors. The mean age was 70,91 (SD=±4.11) years among the young elderly and 82,70 (SD=±2.61) among the oldest old. The sample of individuals aged ≥80 years was 11,7%. Low education, single marital status and lack of work were associated with longevity, as well as self-report has no natural teeth and difficulty or pain when chewing hard foods. Conclusions: The results suggest an association between longevity with sociodemographic characteristics and oral health.
