“…Previous studies have used the FDI framework to identify clinical and selfreported measurements, which is applicable when designing oral health research projects, 34 and have explored the structural components of the FDI's theoretical framework. 35 Several studies have described older adults' oral health without considering a definition of oral health, and with quantitative methods. 2,[10][11][12][13]20,21 The definition has previously been used to define oral health, but this has not been analyzed deductively in a Swedish context.…”

Oral health is a complex issue associated with social and behavioral factors and general health. Therefore, this study aims to explore Swedish older adults’ perceptions of oral health and its influence on general health, based on the World Dental Federation's (FDI) definition and framework of oral health. The study adopted a descriptive qualitative design. Data were collected from semi-structured individual and focus group interviews with older adults ( n = 23) and were analyzed with deductive direct content analysis. The study was evaluated using the COnsolidated criteria for REporting Qualitative research (COREQ) checklist. The older adults described the importance of good oral health in the physical, social, emotional, and mental aspects of their daily lives. The findings also indicate that older adults described oral health as multifaceted and agreed with the FDI's definition and framework of oral health. Therefore, the study findings might provide healthcare professionals with new knowledge and further insight into older adults’ perceptions of oral health and its influence on their well-being and general health.

“…In their paper in this Special Issue, Celeste and colleagues (2022) argue that ‘conceptual and theoretical models are too close to be differentiated from each other for practical use’. Differently, an operational model may be defined as a set of well‐defined variables in a specific setting with a framework to test conceptual model empirically 107 …”

“…Differently, an operational model may be defined as a set of well-defined variables in a specific setting with a framework to test conceptual model empirically. 107 A barrier to the use of conceptual models in oral health research can be the lack of a 'good' model or simply that existing knowledge is limited to establish a strong priori hypothesis. Often sound conceptual models exist in the medical literature but need to be adapted for use in dentistry.…”

As much of what affects oral health is behavioural in nature, it is not surprising that social and behavioural studies in oral health extend back to the early 1900s, at least from a descriptive nature. The goal of this historical perspective is not meant to be a comprehensive review of all social and behavioural research papers published worldwide in oral health. To do justice to that goal would require volumes of text and is well outside the scope of this brief review. To that end, the goal of this section is to give a snapshot view of when certain

Subject. The subject of this study is xerostomia. Objectives. The aim of the study is to evaluate xerostomia manifestations in women with chronic periodontitis and reduced bone mineral density of the skeleton. Methodology. The study is conducted by the Department of Therapeutic Dentistry and Propaedeutics of Dental Diseases, Ural State Medical University. The study involved 96 patients: 76.7% of those with age 45–59 years old, and 23.3% of those with age 60–65 years old. The two study groups were formed: the first group comprised 66 patients with chronic generalized periodontitis of moderate severity and reduced bone mineral density; the second (reference) group comprised 30 conditionally healthy female patients with chronic generalized mild periodontitis in remission and normal bone mineral density of the skeleton. The clinical assessment of dental parameters in patients and online questionnaire survey with special questions modified by us were carried out to determine the aspects of xerostomia and the system state. Conclusions. Analysis of the findings reveals the feasibility of conducting the survey – the use of the summated rating scale responses to Xerostomia Inventory Questionnaire and clinical scoring scales for assessment of xerostomia for xerostomia diagnosis in women with chronic periodontitis of moderate severity, as well in those with reduced bone mineral density. It can be useful in identifying and analyzing risk factors, non-specific causes, prevalence of permanent, periodic and latent xerostomia, initial and clinically definite xerostomia. These methods allow to define the stomatological and somatic status of patients, adequately set up a comprehensive treatment plan, consultations and dynamic monitoring not only by dental and periodontal specialists but also by such specialized medical professionals as rheumatologist, endocrinologist, ophthalmologist, otolaryngologist and others, if necessary.
