“…31 These predictors are more commonly observed when parents, especially mothers, are less educated, 31 as commonly found in vulnerable populations. Adolescents from lower socioeconomic status families, as from disengaged, separated or connected families are more likely to have larger number of cavitated lesions, 33 supporting our study's findings.…”

Dental caries remains a major public health problem, with a higher prevalence among in adolescence. The present study aimed to assess the dental caries spectrum profile in children and adolescents in Brazilian public schools. A cross-sectional study was performed in two public schools in Brazil to examine the permanent teeth of children and adolescents. The dental caries were assessed by applying the Caries Assessment Spectrum and Treatment (CAST) instrument, and the results were distributed as per disease status (healthy/codes 0-2; pre-morbidity/code 3; morbidity/code 4-5; severe morbidity/codes 6-7; mortality/code 8) and by severity as per the CAST-F1 formula (no severity, mild, moderate, and severe). The CAST data were described by age groups (8-9 y, 10-11 y, 12-13 y, 14-15 y, 16-17 y, and 18-19 y). The Kruskal-Wallis test was used to investigate differences in CAST prevalence and severity among the groups (p < 0.05). Total 598 students were enrolled. Most of the subjects were male (53.34%) and belonged to the age group of 12-13 y (34.95%). The variables CAST 0/1 (p = 0.024), CAST (p = 0.024), and CAST-F1 (p = 0.029) showed significant differences among age groups, and the post hoc test showed the differences in these variables as per the age groups of 14-15 y and 16-17 y (CAST 0/1, p = 0.047; CAST, p = 0.047; CAST-F1, p = 0.033). The dental caries spectrum increased from 8 to 19 y with a peak in the prevalence and severity in the middle of adolescence.

“…A previous study conducted in Brazil showed that adolescents aged 12 who had high family cohesion went to dental visits more frequently [ 21 ]. Furthermore, other studies of adolescents revealed that a low level of family cohesion was associated with untreated dental caries [ 16 , 24 ]. Therefore, adolescents from families less connected may present worse oral health behaviors [ 22 ].…”

“…A previous study showed that higher levels of family cohesion can positively contribute to adequate health behaviors in adolescence [ 22 ], with low levels of family cohesion contributing to lower life satisfaction in adolescents [ 23 ], probably reducing motivation and interest in issues related to oral health. A growing number of cross-sectional studies have examined the association between low family cohesion and dental problems such as dental caries in adolescents [ 16 , 24 ] but the role of family cohesion in adolescents' self-perceived need for dental treatment has not been explored. This information is important because adolescents are influenced by the family environment to make decisions, as well as establish financial, psychological, and emotional dependence with guardians and parents [ 20 , 25 , 26 ].…”

This study explored the association between family cohesion and self-perceived need for dental treatment among adolescents. A school-based representative cross-sectional study was conducted with 746 students aged 15 to 19 randomly selected from schools in Campina Grande, Brazil. Parents/guardians provided information on sociodemographic data, and students completed questionnaires about the self-perceived need for dental treatment, dental pain, and family cohesion and adaptability (FACES III). Two dentists were trained (kappa >0.80) to diagnosis dental caries using the Nyvad criteria and assess adolescents’ level of functional oral health literacy (BREALD-30). Descriptive analysis was performed, followed by nonadjusted and adjusted robust binary logistic regression for complex samples ( α = 5 % ). The prevalence of self-perceived need for dental treatment was 88.6%. The presence of dental caries ( OR = 2.10 ; IC 95%: 1.22–3.61), tooth loss ( OR = 15.81 ; IC 95%: 2.14–116.56), dental pain in the last six months ( OR = 1.87 ; IC 95%: 1.06–3.31), and enmeshed family cohesion type ( OR = 10.23 ; IC 95%: 3.96–26.4) remained associated with the self-perceived need for dental treatment in the final model. In conclusion, dental caries, dental pain, tooth loss, and family cohesion influenced the self-perceived need for dental treatment in adolescents.

“…A adolescência é o período em que as condições bucais mais prevalentes ainda dependem da presença de um biofilme patogênico (Souza & Roncalli, 2007;Dutra, 2020). Essa afirmativa está estritamente relacionada a negligência da higiene bucal e a presença de uma dieta rica em carboidratos adotada nessa faixa etária da população (Aguiar et al, 2014;Vazquez Fde et al, 2015).…”

Identificar a produção científica acerca de pesquisas sobre ao atendimento de adolescentes na Odontologia brasileira. Foram realizadas buscas virtuais nos bancos de dados PubMed, BIREME, Web of Sciences, LILACS e BBO, no período de setembro de 2020. Foi observado que 34.8% dos artigos publicados se concentravam nas regiões Nordeste e Sudeste. Em relação aos eixos temáticos abordados pelas presentes investigações pode-se perceber que, 43.5% dos artigos destacavam a necessidade de acesso aos serviços de saúde bucal. 17.4% evidenciaram a prevalência e necessidades de cuidados com a saúde bucal e 17.4% associaram o diagnóstico e a incidência das comorbidades. Diante disso, é necessário que os centros de pesquisas multicêntricas e a estratégia de saúde da família adotem medidas preventivas e de promoção em saúde considerando os indicadores socioeconômicos de cada região promovendo assim, o elo entre o cirurgião-dentista e o paciente adolescente.
