“…The daily activity that was most frequently affected by pain was "eating and enjoying food". This has been mentioned by others [24,25]. The role of food in everyday living may be partially responsible for this finding.…”

“…The impact of dental pain on the oral health related quality of life affected all the domains; physical, psychological and social. This is another likely explanation for the aforementioned dental care seeking behaviour as observed among children by previous authors [25]. Furthermore, the relevance of satisfaction ratings with dental condition in children in the monitoring and evaluation of population based interventions and dental care programme cannot be over emphasized.…”

Background Pain of dental origin is a major reason why school age children seek dental care in low resource settings but how it affects their oral health related quality of life and satisfaction with dental condition remains under researched. The aim of the study was to determine the impact of dental pain on oral health related quality of life as well as its association with satisfaction with dental condition of school age children in Ibadan, Nigeria.Methods This cross-sectional study was conducted among 1006 pupils aged 9-12 years who attended randomly selected primary schools in Ibadan, Nigeria. An interviewer administered questionnaire, Child–Oral Impact on Daily Performances inventory (C-OIDP) in addition to oral examination was used to obtain data. Analysis was done with SPSS version 23 and p value < 0.05 was considered significant.Results The prevalence of self-reported dental pain was 10.2%. The mean C-OIDP score was 2.6 (±7.2) overall and 9.8 (±12.4) for pupils with pain. About 68.9% of pupils with pain reported an impact on quality of life compared to 15.6% of those without dental pain (p < 0.001). Self-reported dental pain affected social, psychological and physical activities (p < 0.001). More children with dental pain (53.4%) were dissatisfied with their dental condition compared to those (12.8%) without dental pain (p < 0.001). Dental pain correlated with dissatisfaction with dental condition (rs = 0.32, p < 0.001). Among children with dental pain; those who were dissatisfied with their dental condition were more likely to report impairment in eating and enjoying food (OR=2.2, CI =1.1 - 4.1, p = 0.018) as well as in maintaining social contact (OR =3.1, CI =1.1 -9.1, p = 0.033).Conclusion Self-reported dental pain significantly impacted on all the domains of quality of life of the pupils and correlated positively with dissatisfaction with dental condition. Eating and enjoying food as well as maintaining social contact were significant predictors of dissatisfaction with dental condition among children with dental pain.

“…Interestingly, it was not physical pain but physical disability the domain most strongly associated with problem-oriented attendance. Difficulty in eating among children [10] and difficulty in chewing among adults (although not significantly in multivariable regression models) [13] have been previously reported as stronger indicators of utilisation of dental services. The two items in the physical disability domain were ‘have you had to interrupt meals’ and ‘has your diet been unsatisfactory because of problems with your teeth, mouth or dentures’.…”

“…Based on the answers to both questions, recent problem-oriented attendance was defined as having visited the dentist in the past 6 months for trouble with teeth. The 6-month threshold was selected to mimic a temporal ordering between exposure (oral impacts) and outcome (dental attendance) and identify dental services use that most likely occurred after the experience of oral impacts [10]. …”

“…While two of those studies showed the impact of oral conditions on children’s quality of life was positively associated with recent visits to the dentist [9, 10], the remaining study reported no association between the child’s quality of life and utilisation of dental services [11]. What is more, the authors also showed that oral impacts on the family (parental distress and family function) were associated with lower utilisation of dental services [11].…”

BackgroundDental care seeking behaviour is often driven by symptoms. The value of oral health related quality of life (OHRQoL) measures to predict utilisation of dental services is unknown. This study aims to explore the association between OHRQoL and problem-oriented dental attendance among adults.MethodsWe analysed cross-sectional data for 705 adults, aged 16 years and above, living in three boroughs of Inner South East London. Data were collected during structured interviews at home. The short form of the Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP-14) was used to assess the frequency of oral impacts on daily life in the last year. Problem-oriented attendance was defined based on time elapsed since last visit (last 6 months) and reason for that visit (trouble with teeth). The association between OHIP-14 (total and domain) scores and problem-oriented attendance was tested in logistic regression models adjusting for participants’ sociodemographic characteristics.ResultsProblem-oriented attenders had a higher OHIP-14 total score than regular attenders (6.73 and 3.73, respectively). In regression models, there was a positive association between OHIP-14 total score and problem-oriented attendance. The odds of visiting the dentist for trouble with teeth were 1.07 greater (95% Confidence Interval: 1.04–1.10) per unit increase in the OHIP-14 total score, after adjustment for participants’ sociodemographic characteristics. In subsequent analysis by OHIP-14 domains, greater scores in all domains but handicap were significantly associated with problem-oriented attendance.ConclusionThis study shows that oral impacts on quality of life are associated with recent problem-oriented dental attendance among London adults. Six of the seven domains in the OHIP-14 questionnaire were also associated with dental visits for trouble with teeth.
