“…Furthermore, Barbato and Peres 16 have suggested that exposure to adverse environments, such as poor socioeconomic conditions in early life, can contribute to oral health problems specifically tooth loss throughout a lifetime. Although we used a younger age group, it may appear that tooth loss could have happened earlier than ACA.…”

“…7,31 Dental loss is considered a marker of health inequalities, since it affects more individuals with a lower educational level and income, who have less access to dental and health promotion services. 31,33,34 In this sense, broad-ranging strategies should be taken to minimize inequality in oral healthcare and offer the population a better quality of life.…”

This study aims to investigate variables related to adherence to oral self-care in the Brazilian adult population. It is an exploratory study, using secondary data from a population-based survey on a representative sample of the adult population of the entire Brazilian territory (n=60202). The sample was selected using a multiple stage approach. The oral self-care indicator was defined by grouping the variables: periodicity of dentist appointments, use of dental floss, toothbrush and toothpaste, frequency of brushing and replacement of the toothbrush. The scores obtained from the indicator were categorized into adequate, partially adequate, and inadequate care. Statistical analysis consisted of dimensionality reduction, and oral self-care-related variables were submitted to logistic regression. The variables mostly related to inadequate or partially adequate oral self-care were: illiteracy (OR = 11.20, OR = 4.81), low educational level (OR = 3.50, OR = 1.96), negative oral health self-concept (OR=3.73, OR=1.74), absence of natural teeth (OR = 4.98, OR=2.60), edentulous lower arch (OR = 3.09; _____), number of missing upper teeth (OR=1.14, OR=1.05), absence of health insurance (OR=2.23, OR=2.07), sedentary lifestyle (OR=2.77, OR=1.51), and smoking (OR=2.18, OR=1.40). It was concluded that the individual's level of education is one of the main factors for adherence to adequate oral self-care, followed by level of oral health self-concept and tooth loss. Likewise, lifestyle also bears a significant influence.

“…O edentulismo total foi mais observado no grupo de idosos institucionalizados, sendo 47,50% e de desdentados parciais 52,50%. Segundo Barbato & Peres, 2015 18 , a exclusão das instituições para idosos nas políticas públicas torna-se um fator representativo das piores condições bucais nesse grupo populacional.…”
