Abstract

Non-surgical periodontal therapy (NSPT) has been shown to have systemic effects. It has been suggested that, similar to rheumatoid arthritis (RA), periodontitis (PD) has an impact on general health, in terms of psychological, physical, and social aspects. This study determines the effect of periodontal treatment in RA activity, health-related quality of life, and oral health self-perception before and after periodontal treatment in RA patients. A quasi-experimental, prospective, non-randomized study was conducted, and 52 patients were included in the study. Periodontal parameters and the instruments disease activity score-28 (DAS-28), SF-36, and OHIP-14 were measured at baseline and at 3 months after NSPT. All differences were statistically assessed. The study protocol was registered in Clinical Trials (NCT04658615). No statistically significant differences were found in the scores of DAS-28 before and after the intervention in the group with PD and reduced periodontium. When the effect of periodontal treatment was analyzed in the group of 29 patients who were followed up, it was found that there were statistically significant differences before and after in variables such as psychological distress, emotional role, and mental health, which indicates an improvement in the scores of these variables. NSPT influenced the health-related quality of life measured with SF-36 and OHIP-14 in patients with RA. In conclusion, NSPT has an effect on self-reported quality of life and health indicators more than the RA activity as measured with DAS-28. However, the clinical effect of periodontal treatment in RA patients provides important data to support periodontal care in patients.

Abstract

Tobacco smoking is responsible for several health problems, including mouth diseases. The aim of the present study was to establish the association between smoking and dental status and self-perceived oral health in a large group of elderly Colombian adults. Analysis of 18,937 survey records of participants aged ≥ 60 years old was conducted. Information regarding age, sex, skin color, socioeconomic level, education, marital status, denture use, partial tooth loss or edentulism, Geriatric Oral Health Assessment Index (GOHAI) and tobacco smoking was retrieved from the database. A descriptive analysis and multivariate logistic regression analysis were performed. Half of the participants were edentulous in the maxilla while mandibular teeth were more frequently retained in more than 60% of the participants. After adjusting for sex and age, smoking consistently increased the odds of partial or complete edentulism in the maxilla (OR 1.05; 95% CI 1.02-1.09) and mandible (OR 1.04; 95% CI 1.00-1.08). Nonetheless, the increase in the odds in the mandible was not statistically significant. The habit of smoking was associated with increased tooth loss that in the long-term may result in poor oral health affecting the quality of life of elderly people.

Abstract

Metrosalud is the largest public hospital network in the city of Medellin and one of the most important in Colombia providing health care to the most vulnerable population. The objective of the study was to determine the Oral HealthRelated Quality of Life (OHRQoL) and its related factors in the elderly population receiving health care at the public hospital network in Medellin (Colombia). A crosssectional design was used. Men and women ≥ 65 years old were considered for this research, selected from first consultation records by the institution's statistical unit for 2011, who accepted to participate after being contacted by telephone. Sampling was performed in two stages: simple random sampling for selecting Hospital Units HUand Health Centers HCthroughout the hospital network in the city, followed by random quota sampling in proportion to the number of elderly population assigned to each HU and HC. A total 342 patients (58.2% women) participated in the study. The project involved the use of a structured questionnaire and complete dental examination with information on sociodemographic data, selfperceived health variables (mental, general and oral), use of oral health services, Oral HealthRelated Quality of Life (OHRQoL as measured with GOHAI index), temporomandibular joint test, oral mucosa, soft tissue evaluation, periodontal, dental and prosthetic examination. Descriptive and bivariate analyses were conducted to determine statistically significant differences. Multivariate analysis was performed, using logistic regression, calculating crude and adjusted odds ratios (OR) with their 95% confidence intervals (95% CI). Impacts were found to be generated by education levels, differences in socioeconomic status and urban or rural housing conditions. The results of this research show low OHRQoL levels in the elderly population receiving health care services at the public hospital network in Medellin., (Sociedad Argentina de Investigación Odontológica.)

Abstract

The objective of this study was to determine the impact of the oral health in relation with the quality of life in adults treated at the College of Dentistry of the University of Antioquia. Methods: a cross-sectional study was conducted in a sample of 167 patients > 18 years that attended the institution (2012). A structured survey was carried out with information of the following variables: age, sex, social security insurance, general and oral self-perceived health and the OHIP-14. An Analysis of self-perceived health indicators according to socio-demographic variables was conducted. Analysis of prevalence, extent and severity from OHIP 14 by socio-demographic and health variables. The association of prevalence indicator of the OHIP-14 and health outcomes was measured by means of logistic regression analyses, calculating crude and adjusted Odds Ratios with the 95% confidence intervals (OR, 95%CI). Results: women, people aged 35-44 years, with a partner, with secondary education and non-manual occupations, reported worse oral health indicators. The prevalence, extent, and severity (as established on OHIP- 14) was higher in men, people aged 55-64 years, with a partner, educational level ≤ primary subsidized regime, manual type occupations. People who reported greater impact of oral health on quality of life were more likely to report poor oral health (aOR 3.59; 95% CI 1.82-7.07). Conclusions: social gradients in oral health related to the quality of life in the study population were found and groups with special vulnerability were observed. RESUMEN: El objetivo de esta investigación fue determinar el impacto de la salud bucal en la calidad de vida en un grupo de adultos que consultan la Facultad de Odontología de la Universidad de Antioquia. Métodos: se hizo un estudio transversal en una muestra por conveniencia de 167 pacientes >18 años, que consultaron a la institución (2012). Se aplicó una encuesta estructurada con información de las siguientes variables: edad, sexo, afiliación a la seguridad social, salud autopercibida general y bucal y el Instrumento OHIP-14; análisis de indicadores de salud autopercibida según variablessociodemográficas e indicadores de prevalencia, grado y extensión del OHIP-14, según variables sociodemográficas y de salud. Se estimó la asociación entre el indicador de prevalencia e indicadores de salud por medio de regresión logística, calculando Odds ratio crudas y ajustadas con su intervalo de confianza al 95% (OR; IC95%). Resultados: las mujeres, personas entre 35-44 años, en unión libre, con estudios secundarios y en ocupaciones no manuales, reportaron peores indicadores de salud bucal. La prevalencia, grado y severidad (según OHIP-14) fue mayor en hombres, personas entre los 55-64 años, en unión libre, con nivel educativo ≤ primaria, afiliados al régimen subsidiado, en ocupaciones de tipo manual. Las personas que reportaron mayor impacto de la salud bucal en la calidad de vida, tienen mayor probabilidad de reportar mala salud bucal (ORa 3,59; IC95% 1,82- 7,07). Conclusiones: existen gradientes sociales en el impacto de la salud bucal en la calidad de vida en la población estudiada, existiendo colectivos de especial vulnerabilidad.
