“…Data such as mother's age at the time she gave birth to the child, her level of education, marital status, number of children, access to services, place where she lives, habits and maternal lifestyle, amongst others, need to be collected and evaluated 29 , as they could interfere with the child's oral condition 30 . It is a question of transmissibility, understood not only in the microbiological context but also, and more importantly, in the broad social, cultural and behavioral relationship of the complex etiology of caries disease 12 .…”

“…There have been few studies 8,[10][11] into factors related to caries in children below the age of four and the majority [6][7][12][13][14][15][16] are designed to study the etiology of this affliction in older, pre-school children, for example. Most of the studies 3,9,[12][13][15][16][17] analyzing caries in children and their oral health condition, as well as the behavioral condition of the mother, were conducted using a crosssectional design. Thus, the aim of this longitudinal study was to analyze the influence of oral health conditions and socio-behavioral characteristics of pregnant women on the development and experience of caries in their children, after 4 years of follow-up.…”

Longitudinal study into the determining factors of dental caries in children aged 4: socio-behavioral aspects and oral health of pregnant women clinical examination of the children (n=73). The variables studied were: presence of caries in pregnancy (DMFT) and the child (deft), visit to the dentist, oral hygiene habits, diet, socioeconomic and behavioral factors, and were related to two study outcomes: presence of caries during the examination and experience of caries (deft≥1) in children of 4 years of age. Bivariate and logistic regression analyses were conducted with the variables (p<0.05 and 95% CI). Results The average DMFT index of mothers during pregnancy was 12.09 (±2.88) and average deft index of children at 4 years was 1.79 (± 6.1). In the multiple logistic regression analysis, the presence of caries in children was associated with the presence of harmful habits (p=0.04). Caries in the child was statistically associated with brush sharing among family members (p=0.02). ConclusionThe results suggest that behavioral aspects are related to the presence and experience of caries in childhood. Indexing terms: Dental caries. Longitudinal studies. Oral health.

RESUMO ObjetivoAnalisar a influência das condições de saúde bucal e das características sócio-comportamentais de gestantes no desenvolvimento e na experiência de cárie em seus filhos, após 4 anos de acompanhamento. MétodosFoi realizado um estudo longitudinal com pares de mães e filhos, mediante entrevista e exame clínico bucal na gestação. Observações periódicas foram realizadas até os quatro anos completos de idade da criança, momento em que foi realizado o exame clínico na criança (n=73). As variáveis estudadas foram: presença de cárie na gestante (CPOD) e na criança (ceod), visita ao cirurgião-dentista, hábitos de higiene bucal, dieta, fatores socioeconômicos e comportamentais, sendo relacionadas com dois desfechos do estudo: presença de cárie no momento do exame e experiência de cárie (ceod≥1) em crianças aos 4 anos de idade. Foram conduzidas análises bivariadas e multivariada com auxílio do Programa Bioestat (p<0,05 e IC 95%).Resultados O CPOD médio das mães durante a gestação foi 12,09 (±2,88) e ceod médio das crianças aos 4 anos foi 1,79 (±6,1). Na análise de regressão logística múltipla, a presença de cárie nos filhos esteve associada com a presença de hábitos deletérios (p=0,04). A experiência de cárie no filho foi associada estatisticamente com o compartilhamento de escova entre os membros da família (p=0.02). ConclusãoOs resultados sugerem que aspectos comportamentais estão relacionados à presença e experiência de cárie na infância.Termos de indexação: Cárie dentária. Estudos longitudinais. Saúde bucal.

Objective: To verify a mother's perception about her and her child`s oral health as well as to analyze its association with socio-behavioral factors. Material and Methods: The study was conducted with 73 pairs of mother and child, through interviews, using a semi-structured questionnaire and clinical exam. The clinical variables studied were: caries prevalence and gingival diseases and nonclinical variables: socio-behavioral factors, perception and habits. Bivariate analyzes, logistic regression and odds ratio (p ≤ 0.05 and 95% CI) were employed. Results: Most mothers considered their oral health as poor (57.5%) and their children as good (68.5%). In the multivariate analysis, measures of self-perception of oral health were significantly associated with the presence of caries in the mother (p <0.01), and oral health perception of the child was related to the presence of caries (p <0.01) and marital status (0.05). Conclusion: The clinical and behavioral factors were associated with the measures of perceived oral health.
