“…The mean DMFT in our study, both in the urban (3.9) and rural zones (3.6) is higher than those found in Brazil ( 3.38), north re- and Manaus, capital of the state of Amazonas 6 . On the other hand, cities such as: Perdeneiras 21 in São Paulo; and also nine cities of inner state of Goiás 22 and Abaetetuba in Pará 23 , and findings in some Indian ethnicities such as Baniwa 24 in Amazonas, and those in the Xingu region 25 in Pará have caries indexes higher than those in the study. The differences may be associated to socio-economic factors that were not addressed by the present study.…”

O conhecimento da prevalência da cárie dentária em municípios inseridos no contexto amazônico é pouco observado na literatura científica. O presente estudo visa investigar a prevalência e necessidade de tratamento da população de crianças de 12 anos de Rio Preto da Eva, Amazonas no ano de 2007, segundo o sexo e o tipo de localidade (rural e urbana). O estudo transversal foi de natureza descritiva e exploratória com a coleta de dados primários da doença, cujo desenho teve como base o levantamento epidemiológico SB-Brasil 2003. A amostra foi constituída por 344 crianças nas residências e escolas na zona rural e urbana do município. O índice CPO-D geral encontrado foi de 3,73 (+0,17) com predomínio do componente cariado. O percentual de crianças livres de cárie nas zonas urbana e rural foi de 12,5 e 13,6, respectivamente. Não houve diferença estatisticamente significante entre os sexos e os tipos de localidade. Na zona rural existem cerca de duas vezes mais dentes com necessidade de tratamento do que na zona urbana. O tratamento restaurador representou a maior necessidade de tratamento desta população (86,2%). A prevalência de cárie na população de 12 anos de idade, em Rio Preto da Eva-AM, é moderada e o CPO-D médio encontrado está acima da meta estabelecida para o ano 2.000 pela FDI/OMS. Os dados evidenciam a necessidade de implementação de medidas de atenção à saúde bucal que sejam capazes de intervir nos determinantes da cárie dentária na população estudada.

“…Since the 1990s, there has been a growing increase in the number of studies on health of indigenous peoples in Brazil 11,13,28,29 . One of the most significant difficulties in these studies is how to obtain representative samples from the point of view of the population.…”

The aim of the study was to investigate caries experience levels in the Xavante Indians, in the state of Mato Grosso, Brazil, with a focus on between-group differences. Oral health data were collected in 2004, following WHO guidelines in four of the seven Xavante reserves (Pimentel Barbosa, Sangradouro, Areões and Marechal Rondon). Data were collected in the largest village in each of the reserves, using the DMFS index. Statistical analyses included sex-specific Poisson regressions to compare DMFS values among Xavante reserves. Prevalence ratios (PR) were used to measure the differences in caries experiences in the 6-to-34-year age group, whose losses varied between 26% and 30%. Xavante from the Pimentel Barbosa community were selected as reference group as they showed a lower prevalence of caries in all age groups. The major difference in DMFS was observed between Pimentel Barbosa and Sangradouro, both in males (PR 2.68, 95%CI 2.41-2.97) and in females (PR 2.03, 95%CI 1.85-2.23). The PRs of the filled component in Areões and Marechal Rondon (relative difference to Pimentel Barbosa) were lower, when compared to the total burden of disease observed in those reserves, indicating very low presence of restorative services. It was concluded that the oral health transition among Xavante has not been homogeneous and the differences found in caries experiences can be associated with the particularities of the interaction process between Indians and non-Indians. Local and regional determinants, including factors related to demography, specific economic and socio-cultural characteristics, health care access and type of oral health services received might have influenced the between-group differences in dental caries observed in the Xavante Indians.

“…2,16 According to Detogni,16 tooth loss is an event considered normal by the Xingu indigenous people. In general, under the guidance of the native chief (in Portuguese, cacique), community dwellers prefer to remove the cause of pain rather than prevent decay or restore their teeth.…”

“…They believe that tooth loss is a natural consequence of aging. 2 There are no epidemiological data on the need for endodontic treatment in indigenous peoples in Brazil. This study sought to fill this gap by assessing the prevalence of this need in each of the ethnicities studied here.…”

Epidemiological analysis and need for endodontic treatment among the indigenous Sateré-Mawé and Tikuna

et al. 2018

The objective of this study was to analyze the epidemiological profile of oral health of Sateré-Mawé indigenous people living in Barreirinha, Amazonas (AM), Brazil, and the Tikuna indigenous people living in the urban area of Manaus (AM), in addition to characterizing the need for endodontic treatment between the two ethnic groups. A total of 138 individuals participated in the study, of whom 98 were Tikuna and 40 were Sateré-Mawé; they were distributed in age groups ranging from seven to 75 years. A very high prevalence of caries was observed in both ethnic groups. For the Sateré-Mawé in the 7-12 age group, the decayed, missing, and filled teeth (DMFT) index presented a mean value of 3.17. Comparing the DMFT index and the need for endodontic treatment in each of the ethnicities, these variables were found to be correlated, because as the DMFT index increases, the chances of needing endodontic treatment increase. The Sateré-Mawé presented a higher prevalence of need for endodontic treatment compared to the Tikuna. The association of comorbidities and the need for endodontic treatment were demonstrated only in the Tikuna, and there was only a correlation of this necessity with the presence of diabetes mellitus (DM) in one case. The need to expand access to oral health in these communities is emphasized, taking into account geographical access and technological, environmental, linguistic, and cultural barriers.
