“…The majority of participants had high risk of periodontal diseases and poorer oral hygiene status, when compared to the broader Thai middle-aged population without disabilities, according to data from the 2012 Thailand oral health national survey. Although the participants are capable of performing daily self-care, their physical limitation is a possible explanation for difficulty in appropriate personal oral hygiene practices, which can lead to a lower quality of oral cleanliness (El Tantawi & Al Agl, 2017;Jang et al, 2015). These findings are consistent with earlier studies in that they show people with disabilities experience poorer oral health status and irregular oral health behaviors than without disabilities (Chen et al, 2016;Pan et al, 2017;Rashid-Kandvani et al, 2015).…”

“…A significant association between high risk periodontal diseases and infrequent brushing frequency was demonstrated in Model A. This finding has been consistently reported in prior studies of people with disabilities as the follows: in a study of Saudi Arabia adults with disabilities, toothbrushing twice or more per day resulted in a reduced need for periodontal care (El Tantawi & Al Agl, 2017); among a group of Spanish cognitive impairment and dementia patients, deficiency of toothbrushing was associated with increased dental plaque accumulation and gingival inflammation (Gil-Montoya et al, 2016); finally, among Korean stroke patients, lower frequency of toothbrushing was associated with poor oral health related quality of life and worse periodontal conditions (Jang et al, 2015). A relationship between oral health behaviors and increased dental plaque accumulation was found in Model B.…”

OBJECTIVE: There is limited evidence concerning oral health among disabled people capable of independently performing oral hygiene practices. This study investigated factors associated with periodontal diseases and oral hygiene status among community-dwelling, working-age Thai adults with physical disabilities. MATERIAL & METHODS: A cross-sectional study was conducted between 1st February to 15th March 2018 at the Community Center for Independent Living, a disability community club located in Pathum Thani province, Thailand. A total of 198 adults with physical disabilities completed self-report questionnaires. Occurrence of bleeding on probing and presence of dental plaque accumulation were obtained through full-mouth periodontal examinations by a trained and calibrated examiner. Univariate and multivariate binary logistic regression were performed. RESULTS: Toothbrushing frequency of less than twice per day was associated with periodontal diseases (OR = 8.25, p = 0.001). Higher levels of sweets consumption (OR = 3.17, p = 0.003) and infrequent toothbrushing (OR = 4.26, p = 0.001) were related to poor oral hygiene. CONCLUSIONS: Participants who performed improper oral health behaviors would suffer from periodontal diseases and poorer oral hygiene status. Although participants are capable of performing daily self-care, their physical limitation is a possible explanation for difficulty in appropriate personal oral hygiene practices, which can lead to a lower quality of oral cleanliness. Therefore, professional oral health education and personal oral hygiene instruction tailor-fit to their specific needs are necessary to increase the quality of toothbrushing practices and proper oral health behaviors among persons with physical disabilities.

“…When oral health care does not meet the needs of the individuals, it can negatively impact their general health and wellbeing, deteriorating quality of life [ 14 ], as a weak oral health status may cause, among others, pain, sleep disturbance, decreased self-esteem, discomfort and an unsatisfactory diet [ 7 , 15 ].…”

Oral health-related quality of life of Portuguese adults with mild intellectual disabilities

et al. 2018

Individuals with disabilities are regarded as a highly vulnerable population group, particularly as far as oral health is concern. However, few studies have assessed the impact of the oral condition on the quality of life of these individuals. Therefore, the aim of this study is to expand knowledge on the oral health status of the Portuguese adults with mild intellectual disability, and to assess how the patient’s oral health is related to their quality of life. A sample of 240 adults with mild intellectual disabilities linked to the Portuguese Federation for Intellectual Disability, were interviewed using a previously validated version of the Oral Health Impact Profile. An oral health examination was also conducted using three oral health indexes: Clinical Oral Health Index (COHI); Clinical Oral Care Needs Index (COCNI) and the Clinical Oral Prevention Index (COPI). Sociodemographic characteristics and dental health factors were also collected, following statistical analysis. More than half of the individuals (54,9%) presented one or more problems of major to severe impact on health (COHI level 2); only 4,6% of the individuals do not need treatment or examination (COCNI level 0) and 85% of the study sample needs measures of educational or preventive action (COPI level 1). In 76,9% of the participants, oral health had impact on the quality of life. The most affected dimensions of life were physical pain with 61,9%, followed by psychological discomfort and psychological disability with 45,1% and 45%, respectively. With relation to oral health factors and sociodemographic variables it was verified that fewer teeth and higher self-perception of need for dental treatment had a negative impact on the quality of life. On the other hand, institutionalization and an increase in at least one category in the self-perception of the oral health status had a positive impact on the quality of life. Given the high burden of oral disease and the considerable impact on quality of life found in this study, the establishment of guidelines to improve the oral health and quality of life of these individuals should be regarded as imperative.

“…Disse funnene støtter tidligere studier som viser at den orale helserelaterte livskvaliteten var signi kant redusert hos slagrammede (13). Det er påvist at den oralrelaterte livskvaliteten ble redusert jo mer nedsatt fysisk funksjon pasientene hadde, og jo dårligere oral hygiene og ere tenner de hadde mistet (14).…”

“…Nedsatt følsomhet og redusert muskelkoordinasjon i munnhulen forårsaker svekket kontroll med maten og/eller tannprotesen. I tillegg gir sikling, langsom spising og problemer med håndtering av spisebestikk følelsen av skamfullhet og lav selvtillit (13)(14)(15).…”
