0086/2019 - Oral health-related quality of life and associated factors in the elderly: A population-based cross-sectional study. Qualidade de vida relacionada à saúde bucal e fatores associados em idosos: Um estudo transversal com amostra representativa.
O estudo avaliou a qualidade de vida relacionada à saúde bucal (QVRSB) e fatores associados em idosos. Estudo transversal foi realizado em 287 idosos de Cruz Alta, Brasil. As seguintes variáveis foram coletadas: idade, sexo, etnia, nível educacional, estado civil, aposentadoria, histórico médico/odontológico, exposição ao fumo/álcool, hábitos de higiene oral, uso e necessidade de prótese, dentes ausentes, sintomas de desordem temporomandibular (DTM), estado nutricional e halitose. QVRSB foi avaliada pelo OHIP-14 (Perfil de Impacto de Saúde Bucal) e categorizado em baixo impacto (soma dos escores ?6) e alto impacto (soma dos escores ?7). Associações foram avaliadas por regressão de Poisson com variância robusta. A média OHIP-14 foi 5,92±8.54. Indivíduos divorciados e aqueles que reportaram não usar fio dental apresentaram 77% e 54%, respectivamente, maior razão de prevalência (RP) de terem maior impacto na QVRSB. Idosos que não necessitam próteses dentárias demonstraram menor impacto na QVRSB (P

Abstract:
This study aimed to evaluate the oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) and associated factors in the elderly. A cross-sectional study was conducted with 287 elderly of Cruz Alta, Brazil. The following variables were collected: age, sex, ethnicity, level of education, marital status, retirement, medical/dental history, smoking/alcohol exposure, oral hygiene habits, use and need of dental prosthesis, missing teeth, temporomandibular disorder symptoms (TMD), nutritional status, and halitosis. OHRQoL was assessed by Oral Health Impact Profile-14 (OHIP-14). The sample was categorized into low impact (sum scores ≤6) and high impact (sum scores ≥7). Associations were analyzed by Poisson regression with robust variation. Mean scores of OHIP-14 was 5.92±8.54. Divorced individuals and those who did not use dental floss presented 77% and 54%, respectively, higher prevalence ratio (PR) of having higher OHRQoL impact. Elderly that did not need dental prosthesis demonstrated a lower impact on OHRQoL (P
