“…The effect of oral disease, signs, and symptoms on oral health-related quality of life has been reported previously in cross-sectional [19,[29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39] and longitudinal studies [40][41][42][43]. These previous studies include a variety of psychometric properties when measuring oral disadvantage.…”

“…As categorias de resposta ótimo e bom foram agrupadas na categoria percepção positiva da saúde bucal e as categorias péssimo, ruim e regular foram consideradas como percepção negativa da condição de saúde bucal. Essa forma de operacionalização foi baseada nos estudos de Peek et al 18 e Borrel et al 19 .…”

O objetivo deste estudo foi estimar a prevalência de autoavaliação negativa de saúde bucal e fatores associados entre adultos em áreas de assentamento rural. A amostra probabilística consistiu de 557 adultos entre 20 a 59 anos em áreas de assentamento rural no Estado de Pernambuco, Brasil. A variável dependente foi autoavaliação da condição de saúde bucal e as independentes foram: características demográficas, de predisposição/disponibilidade de recursos, comportamentos relacionados à saúde bucal, condições objetivas e subjetivas relacionadas à saúde bucal. Foram estimadas as razões de prevalência bruta e ajustada por meio de regressão de Poisson. A prevalência de autopercepção negativa da saúde bucal foi de 70,5%. A autoavaliação negativa da saúde bucal foi mais prevalente em indivíduos mais jovens, de baixa escolaridade, entre as mulheres, e entre os de cor preta e parda. Os preditores da autoavaliação negativa da saúde bucal foram a cor da pele, a necessidade autorreferida de tratamento odontológico e o impacto das condições de saúde bucal na qualidade de vida.

“…Oral hygiene selfcare was self-reported, and participants were asked to answer the question: 'How often do you brush your teeth?' [Peek et al, 1999]. Answers, ranging from 'never' to 'more than twice a day', were categorized into 'less than twice a day' or 'twice a day or more'.…”

Background: The importance of psychological reactions in modifying oral health behaviors and salivary immunity has been shown previously, but few studies assessed whether psychological reactions are associated with caries in populations. Thus, the aim of this study was to examine the association of depressive symptoms with untreated caries using a hierarchal approach. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, a random sample of 390 South Brazilians aged 60 years or more was evaluated using a structured questionnaire assessing sociodemographic, behavior, health and depressive symptoms (Geriatric Depression Scale) data. Oral examinations were carried out in order to assess: (1) dental status, using the DMFT index; (2) dental plaque, using the Visible Plaque Index, and (3) unstimulated saliva flow, using the spit method. A hierarchical model based on the framework of caries was carried out to assess whether depressive symptoms were associated with prevalent untreated dental caries (or D >0). Results: Depressive symptoms, number of teeth and plaque accumulation were significant predictors of caries with respect to the D >0 outcome. Conclusion: Our findings suggest that depressive symptoms may act as determinants of caries, adding to the body of knowledge supporting the importance of psychological reactions in oral health/disease processes.
