“…This population equates white teeth with healthy teeth, whereas yellowed teeth can lead to stigmas and stereotypes on the part of both those who see the teeth and those with such teeth 30,31. It is therefore important to evaluate levels of satisfaction after treatment.…”

OBJECTIVES:To evaluate the colorimetric change in incisors and canines of adolescents aged 12 to 20 years submitted to at-home whitening and to evaluate satisfaction, sensitivity and discomfort during the procedures through a questionnaire.METHOD:Thirty adolescents were randomly assigned to the following groups: 1) 6.0% hydrogen peroxide (White Class with calcium – FGM); 2) 7.5% hydrogen peroxide (White Class with calcium - FGM); 3) 10% hydrogen peroxide (Oral B 3D White – Oral-B); 4) Control group – placebo. Assessments were performed prior to treatment as well as at 7, 30, 180 and 360 days after treatment. Friedman’s ANOVA was used to analyze color. The Kruskal-Wallis test followed by Dunn’s post hoc test was used to compare the groups at the different evaluation times. Answers on the questionnaires were ranked, and non-parametrical tests were employed. The groups were compared in each period using the Kruskal-Wallis test followed by the Student-Newman-Keuls test. Categorical data were analyzed using Fisher's exact test, and the Wilcoxon test was used for the analysis of different periods. P-values were corrected using the Hyan-Holm step-down Bonferroni procedure. Clinicaltrials.gov: NCT01998386.RESULTS:Similar results were obtained one month after treatment with both tooth whitening gels and whitening strips. Patients were partially satisfied with the treatment after the first and second weeks and would recommend it. All products demonstrated color stability after 12 months of follow-up.CONCLUSIONS:The bleaching procedure was efficient, and the patients could perceive its result. Further investigations are needed to determine the effects of bleaching on young teeth.

“…It has to be borne in mind that children and teenagers have a peculiar view of themselves and the world and this perception varies according to the physical and emotional phase of development in which they find themselves 4 . Despite the fact that the distribution of caries lesions in the mouth was not evaluated in the present study, it is possible that the absence of any impact for the 11 to 14-yearolds in this domain, an age group that encompasses adolescence, is explained by the presence of cavities limited to the posterior teeth.…”

“…However, in the present study, oral health condition was only linked to the functional limitations domain amongst children aged between 8 and 10, even though this group exhibited a lower DMF-T than the group of 11 to 14-year-olds. One possible explanation for this might be the fact that children at school attribute more importance of oral health to factors such as good hygiene practices and the presence of healthy teeth while teenagers associate oral health with social interaction and comparing themselves to their peers 4 . The present study presents limitations inherent to the cross-sectional nature in its design and thus it is not possible to infer causality from the associations found.…”

“…In this context, there are specific, validated questionnaires that make it possible to measure the impact of these problems on individuals' quality of life 3 . Although the perceptions of adults and children are different, as children and teenagers have a singular perspective of themselves and the world, due to the stage of physical and emotional development in which they find themselves 4 . So specific tools have been developed for these publics [5][6][7] , which include the CPQ8-10 5,8 and the CPQ11-14 5,9 recommended for the age groups which constitute the present study.…”

ObjectiveThe association between self-perception in oral health, history of caries and sex was evaluated in students from São Gabriel da Cachoeira, in the Brazilian state of Amazonas. MethodsThe sample was composed of 509 students enrolled in six public schools of the municipal and state education system. The epidemiological study was performed by a calibrated examiner (Kappa=0.98) using the DMF-T and dmf-t indices. Self-perception in oral health was measured using the CPQ8-10 Child Perceptions Questionnaire for children aged between 8 and 10 and the CPQ11-14 for children aged between 11 and 14, in which the domains were oral symptoms, functional limitation, emotional well-being and social well-being. 0.20 (p<0.20) Results The significance of the associations between the variables was tested using bivariate analysis, and the associations that presented p-values lower than RESUMO ObjetivoAvaliar a associação entre a autopercepção em saúde bucal com a experiência de cárie e sexo em estudantes do município de São Gabriel da Cachoeira, Amazonas -Brasil. MétodosA amostra foi composta por 509 alunos matriculados nas seis escolas públicas da rede municipal e estadual de ensino do município. O exame epidemiológico foi realizado por examinador calibrado (Kappa=0,98), utilizando-se os índices CPO-D e ceo-d e a autopercepção em saúde foi aferida utilizando-se os instrumentos Child Perceptions Questionnaire CPQ8-10 para as crianças entre 8 a 10 anos e CPQ11-14 para as crianças entre 11 a 14 anos, considerando-se os domínios sintomas orais, limitação funcional, bem-estar emocional e bem-estar social. ResultadosAs significâncias das associações entre as variáveis foram testadas pela análise bivariada e as associações que apresentaram p-valor inferior a 0,20 (p<0,20) foram testadas nos modelos de regressão logística múltipla, permanecendo aquelas com p≤0,05. O grupo de 08 a 10 anos apresentou valor médio do CPO-D de 0,82 (± 1,33) e o ceo-d 2,54 (± 2,59), enquanto o grupo de 11 a 14 anos o CPO-D foi de 2,08 (± 2,41) e o ceo-d 1,5 (± 1,77). ConclusãoConclui-se que o sexo foi a variável que mais influenciou nas dimensões avaliadas, seguida da condição bucal e que a presença de dentes cariados não influenciou a autopercepção das crianças sobre a sua saúde bucal.Termos de indexação: Cárie dentária. Saúde bucal. Qualidade de vida. Autoimagem.

BackgroundLittle is known about oral health related to electronic-cigarette (EC) use, even though EC use is increasing rapidly. The aim of this study is to assess the relationship between EC use and oral health, including ‘gingival pain and/or bleeding’, ‘tongue and/or inside-cheek pain’, and ‘cracked or broken teeth’ among adolescents.MethodsA total of 65,528 students in 2016 were included in this cross-sectional study.ResultsFor EC use, 0.5% (n = 297) students were daily users, 1.9% (n = 1259) were ‘1 to 29 days past month users’, and 5.9% (n = 3848) were former users. Overall, 18.5% students reported they had experienced ‘gingival pain and/or bleeding’, 11.0% reported ‘tongue and/or inside-cheek pain’, and 11.4% reported a ‘cracked or broken tooth’ within the past 12 months. When comparing ‘daily EC users’, ‘1 to 29 days past month EC users’, and ‘former EC users’ with ‘never EC users’, the adjusted ORs for ‘cracked or broken tooth’ were 1.65 (95% CI: 1.19–2.27), 1.26 (95% CI: 1.06–1.51), and 1.16 (95% CI: 1.04–1.30), respectively. Comparing ‘daily EC users’ with ‘never EC users’, the adjusted OR for ‘tongue and/or inside-cheek pain’ was 1.54 (1.05–2.26). However, EC use among adolescents was not associated with ‘gingival pain and/or bleeding’ when adjusted for the potential confounders.ConclusionsBased on the results, the odds of cracked or broken teeth among daily, ‘1 to 29 days past month’, and former EC users were significantly higher than those among never EC users. The odds of tongue and/or inside-cheek pain among daily EC users were significantly higher than those among never EC users. In conclusion, the results suggest that daily EC use among adolescents may be a risk factor for cracked or broken teeth and tongue and/or inside-cheek pain.
