Resumo:
Objetivou-se avaliar a prevalência de defeitos de desenvolvimento de esmalte (DDE) em pré-escolares e investigar a associação com fatores sociodemográficos e socioeconômicos e peso da criança. Foi realizado um estudo transversal com 118 crianças de três a cinco anos de idade. Os dados foram coletados por meio de exame clínico e questionário autoaplicável respondido pelos pais. Para o diagnóstico de DDE utilizou-se o Developmental Defects of Enamel Index. Informações sobre indicadores socioeconômicos (escolaridade da mãe e renda familiar per capita), gênero e idade da criança e idade da mãe ao nascimento da criança foram obtidas do questionário. O status de peso foi determinado baseando-se no peso e idade da criança no momento do exame. A análise estatística incluiu teste do qui-quadrado e regressão de Poisson. A prevalência de DDE foi 50.0%, sendo mais frequente em crianças do sexo masculino (p=0.025) e provenientes de famílias incluídas na linha de pobreza (p=0.040). No modelo de regressão de Poisson ajustado para gênero e escolaridade da mãe, observou-se que as crianças provenientes de famílias incluídas na linha de pobreza apresentaram maior prevalência de DDE (PR: 1.25; 95% CI: 1.00-1.57). Conclui-se que a prevalência de DDE foi alta e associada com renda familiar per capita. O peso da criança não foi associado com DDE.

Abstract:
This study sought to determine the prevalence of developmental defects of enamel (DDE) among preschool children and investigate associations with sociodemographic and socioeconomic factors and weight status. A cross-sectional study was conducted with 118 children aged 3 to 5 years. Data were collected via clinical examinations and a self-administered questionnaire completed by the parents. The diagnosis of DDE was performed using the modified DDE Index. Information on socioeconomic indicators (mother’s schooling, monthly income per capita), child’s sex and age, and age of mother at the birth of the child were obtained by questionnaire. The children’s weight status was determined based on weight-for-age at the time of the exam. Statistical analysis involved the chi-squared test and Poisson regression with robust variance. The prevalence of DDE was 50.0%. DDE were more frequent in males (p=0.025) and children whose families were classified as being at poverty line (p=0.040). In the Poisson model controlled for child’s sex and mother’s schooling, children whose families were classified as being at the poverty line had a greater prevalence rate of DDE (PR:1.25; 95% CI:1.00-1.57). In conclusion, the prevalence of DDE was high in the present sample and associated with lower household income. Weight status was not associated with DDE.
