“…11 In Brazil, we can see a poor oral health among elderly, with many citizens without teeth and few people free of dental and periodontal problems. 4,5,13,14 On this, Quilombola elderly women are not exempt; all reported to be partially or fully edentulous. Overall, difficulty chewing, bad breath and embarrassment of not having healthy teeth are factors that greatly affect the quality of life of edentulous patients.…”

“…Overall, difficulty chewing, bad breath and embarrassment of not having healthy teeth are factors that greatly affect the quality of life of edentulous patients. 5,14 Based on information and knowledge built, influenced by previous experience and social and cultural norms, self-perceived health is the interpretation that person makes of their health and illness experiences in context of their own daily life. 15 In dentistry, the evaluation of self-perceived oral health in an important routine basis is that encourages adoption of healthy behaviors, and yet allow community participation in policy formulation and social decisions, in addition to making possible a more effective approach to the subject by health professionals.…”

“…This report confirms the results of research on self-perceived oral health and impact on the elderly's quality of life, that when discussing relative dimensions of the impact of use of prostheses, presence of discomfort was the most prevalent. 5,14 Traditional knowledge and customs inherited from ancestors are perpetuated through generations and guarantee unique experiences, perceptions, realities and stories that the Quilombolas live. 20 This culture produced within the black communities is still perpetuated inside the Quilombos and these practices are not connected to formal health services.…”

“…23 The reports clearly demonstrate that there is a lack in relation to guidance and education on oral hygiene among Quilombola elderly women; although there is a great amount of literature specializing in this respect, the appropriate actions are not routine in the surveyed population. 5,14 Obviously, indications for use of the substances mentioned by interviewees for temporary or permanent relief of dental pain source are not found in current scientific studies of Dentistry. Although reports on the use of plant acid for this purpose are unusual, the use of homemade remedies is widespread in Brazil.…”

“…4 Oral health of elderly has been neglected when it should be given special attention, since it operates as an integrated part of general health and primary care. This lack is demonstrated by insufficient programs focused on elderly and unreliable epidemiological situation, 5 thus, implementation of comprehensive health services is extremely required for elderly groups.…”

Objective: To investigate the perception and oral health practices among older quilombola women (black population group, descendants of slaves in Brazil). Methods: Qualitative research with elderly women living in a rural community formed by descendants of slaves in Brazil. The study was performed through a semi-structured interview with nine of the rural community residents and following content analysis of the narratives. Results: All elderly women are edentulous (partially or totally) and dental problems that led them to use natural means of pain relief were identified. With the analysis of the transcripts, three main categories emerged: the elderly of Quilombola Rural Community Julia Mulata and edentulism; self-perceived oral health of older women of the Quilombola Rural Community Julia Mulata; Popular practices used in the presence of health problems. Conclusion: Quilombola elderly consider the loss of teeth as natural aging; they present life stories linked to dental problems; seek to solve their dental problems with the use of traditional folk therapies.

Background The challenges to conducting oral health studies involving older people in long-term care facilities (LTCFs) must be debated. Objective This study aimed to investigate researchers’ perceptions and experiences while conducting an epidemiological survey on oral health among older individuals residing in LTCFs. Methods A qualitative study was conducted involving six researchers who utilized field diaries to record their impressions during data collection through interviews (older individuals (or their proxies), caregivers, and LTCF coordinators) and oral examinations of the older people participants. Additionally, researchers responded to open-ended questions about their experiences. The collected material was subjected to content analysis by two researchers. Results The themes that emerged from the analysis were institutional context, aspects affecting the operationalization of the study, and data collection oriented by the clinical-functional profile of the older people. According to the researchers’ perceptions, LTCF coordinators demonstrated concern for the study’s benefits for older adults and the preservation of institutional routines during the research process. Caregivers emerged as vital sources of information, guiding researchers in navigating the challenges posed by the physical and mental complexities of the older people participants, necessitating empathy, sensitivity, and attentive listening from the researchers. The organization of materials and a streamlined data collection process proved essential for optimizing time efficiency and reducing stress for participants and researchers. Conclusion The researchers recognized the important role played by LTCF coordinators and formal caregivers, underscoring the significance of empathetic methodologies and streamlined data collection processes in mitigating the challenges inherent to research conducted within LTCFs.

Introdução: temos no Brasil um grande número de pacientes geriátricos que vivem institucionalizados, sendo imprescindível que se conheça o espaço e as condições de saúde as quais estão submetidos, para comparar o componente saúde bucal associado a saúde geral. Objetivo: revisão sistêmica para traçar um panorama das condições de saúde bucal nos idosos institucionalizados no Brasil. Metodologia: busca de artigos originais nas bases de dados, Lilacs, SciELO e Pub Med, de 2008 a 2018, que tratassem sobre a saúde bucal de idosos institucionalizados, publicados em português, inglês ou espanhol e de livre acesso na internet. Resultados: Os artigos apontaram uma condição bucal extremamente precária em todos os cenários, com inúmeras fragilidades apontadas pela percepção dos cuidadores. Conclusão: é imprescindível que ocorra o direcionamento de profissionais e cuidadores capacitados afim de melhorar as condições encontradas, além do direcionamento de políticas públicas que resguardem o cuidado apropriado a esse público.Descritores: Odontologia Geriátrica; Assistência a Idosos; Instituição de Longa Permanência para Idosos; Saúde Pública.ReferênciasAlves MB, Menezes MR, Felzemburg RDM, Silva VA, Amaral JB.
