“…This is supported by our ndings which revealed, even after adjustment in the multivariate analysis, a highly signi cant association found between the lowest family income tertile and OHRQoL. Similar ndings have been reported in other studies among children in Brazil and India [26,35,36]. It is therefore important to assess socio economic conditions in general when dealing with OHRQoL, even among school children who are eligible for free hospital dental services in Sri Lanka.…”

“…Recent studies have revealed that malocclusion plays an important role in social interactions and psychological well-being in adolescents [15,35,39] and it has been suggested that there is a signi cant impact of malocclusion on the OHRQoL of young children. Our ndings con rm this and show a strong signi cant positive association between anomaly and the OIDP score after adjustment for other factors.…”

Background Oral Health Related Quality of Life (OHRQoL) measures have emerged as an important oral health outcome that is able to reveal the subjective burden of illness due to oral diseases.The association between socio-demographic and socio-economic factors, clinical dental conditions and OHRQoL indicators has been investigated in adolescents’ cohorts across the world. The purpose of this study was to investigate key factors associated with oral health-related quality of life of Sri Lankan adolescents. Methods A cross sectional study was conducted amongst a sample of 15-19 year-old secondary school students, Gampaha district, Sri Lanka. The data was collected using two self-administered questionnaires. A modified Sinhalese version of the Oral Impact on Daily Performance (OIDP) questionnaire that has been validated for Sri Lankan adolescents was administered. A second questionnaire collected information on socioeconomic characteristics, oral health care seeking and oral health behaviours. A clinical oral examination was performed on each participant. Oral health related quality of life was measured using OIDP domains and total OIDP scores. Multiple linear regression with stepwise selection was used to investigate the key factors associated with the OIDP additive score. Results A total of 1,332 adolescents participated in the study. Negative quality of life impacts were more prevalent in the social and psychological domain of OIDP as compared with the functional domain. Total OIDP scores ranged from 0 to 36 with a mean of 3.16 (SD=4.71). The multivariate analysis revealed that decayed teeth, presence of anomaly, age, family income, health care seeking pattern and consumption pattern of soft drinks were all significantly associated with higher total OIDP scores, reflecting poorer oral health related quality of life. Frequency of daily tooth brushing was negatively associated with total OIDP scores. ConclusionVarious factors were associated with OHRQoL and could have implications for the improvement of OHRQoL among Sri Lankan adolescents.

“…The self‐reported need represents the degree of discomfort that the presence of dental problems causes in the daily lives of the children. Social inequalities have been identified in the impact of oral conditions in the children's daily activities in Brazil. Moreover, they may be determinant for seeking dental care or not, and may explain some of the resulting outcomes.…”

“…Caries lesions may compromise oral functions and impact negatively on the quality of life [Souza et al, 2017]. Although both types of lesions are caused by the same determinants (biofilm formation and frequency of sugar ingestion), the different characteristics of the tissues modulate their progression, with a faster development of root caries [Nyvad and Fejerskov, 1982].…”

The aim of this study was to identify the association of the presence of root caries in older people with contextual and individual determinants using a multilevel model. Data from the National Survey of Oral Health collected in Brazil were used. A sample of older Brazilians (aged 65-74 years) was included and selected through multistage probability cluster sampling, using probability proportional to size. Contextual variables of municipalities and individual variables of older people were included. Descriptive, bivariate, and multilevel analyses were conducted. Of the 3,926 older people included in the study, 934 (21.8%) had at least 1 tooth with root caries. There seemed to be no pattern of involvement between the anterior and posterior teeth in the dental arches. Multilevel analysis showed a higher presence of root caries among older people resident in municipalities that were noncapital cities (OR = 1.50), who were over 70 years of age (odds ratio, OR = 1.22), had nonwhite skin color (OR 1.35), had coronal caries (OR = 5.58), were dissatisfied with their teeth and mouth (OR = 1.47), and had self-perceived dental treatment needs (OR = 1.33). Contextual and individual determinants were associated with the occurrence of root caries in older people. Lesion presence demonstrated a profile of social inequality.
