“…Dental malformations are ten times more common in individuals with DS than in the general population. These include microdontia, diastema, agenesis, delayed tooth eruption, dental morphology, and a higher prevalence of bruxism [1,2,5,6]. Diastema is frequent among individuals with DS due to microdontia and agenesis.…”

Scientific evidence of susceptibility to dental caries in the population with Down Syndrome (DS) is limited and conflicting, making it difficult to establish firm conclusions. The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to obtain scientific evidence of the possible association between dental caries and individuals with DS, compared to individuals without DS (control). An electronic search of five databases was performed, with no language or publication date restrictions. The studies were selected by two independent reviewers (Kappa = 0.83). The systematic review included 13 studies, while eight studies were included in the meta-analysis. The studies are presumably all at risk of bias given their observational character. Two of these evaluated the presence or absence of caries in permanent and deciduous teeth, and six evaluated the mean DMFT index in permanent teeth. Combined odds ratios (OR), standard difference, standard error and a 95% confidence interval (CI) were obtained. The vast majority of the studies found that individuals from control groups had more carious lesions or caries experience than those with DS. The results were statistically significant in seven studies (p<0.05). Meta-analysis of two studies revealed that individuals with DS had a lower dental caries than those in the control group (OR = 0.36; 95% CI = 0.22–0.57). In six studies, individuals with DS had a significantly lower mean DMFT index than individuals from the control group (Sd = -0.18; SE = 0.09; 95% CI = -0.35–-0.02). The quality of the studies varied and in general had a high risk of bias. Scientific evidence suggests that individuals with DS have fewer dental caries than individuals without DS.

“…A saúde bucal ainda é vista com baixa prioridade quando comparada aos cuidados médicos dedicados ao indivíduo acometi do por alguma defi ciência, pois estes pacientes necessitam demasiadamente de cuidados gerais 16 . Neste senti do, as famílias despendem tempo excessivo para os diversos tratamentos necessitados e não compreendem a importância dos cuidados odontológicos 17,18 . Este pode ser um dos moti vos da não procura pelos serviços básicos odontológicos pelos entrevistados desta pesquisa, visto que 44,8% das crianças e dos adolescentes possuíam defi ciência fí sica e 47,8%, defi ciência mental.…”

“…Oliveira et al 37 studied the dental care aimed at children and adolescents with Down syndrome, and underlined the importance of the orientation of health professionals who take care of these patients in order to provide full care. Elizondo et al 13 analyzed the dental care aimed at patients with HIV/AIDS in Mexico by examining their perception regarding the persistence of stigma on the part of professionals.…”

Oral health in the agenda of priorities in public health

This study describes the scientific production on oral health diffused in Revista de Saúde Pública, in the 50 years of its publication. A narrative review study was carried out using PubMed, as it is the search database that indexes all issues of the journal. From 1967 to 2015, 162 manuscripts specifically focused on oral health themes were published. This theme was present in all volumes of the journal, with increasing participation over the years. Dental caries was the most studied theme, constantly present in the journal since its first issue. Periodontal disease, fluorosis, malocclusions, and other themes emerged even before the decline of dental caries indicators. Oral health policy is the most recurring theme in the last two decades. Revista de Saúde Pública has been an important vehicle for dissemination, communication, and reflection on oral health, contributing in a relevant way to the technical-scientific interaction between professionals in this field.
