Risk Determinants of Dental Caries and Oral Hygiene Status in 3–15 Year-Old Recent Immigrant and Refugee Children in Saskatchewan, Canada: A Pilot Study

Abstract: This study aimed to identify the risk determinants of caries and record oral hygiene status in recent immigrant and refugee children residing in Saskatoon and Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada.

“…The negative impact of these barriers on oral health decisions was identified in this study, where pain or problem‐oriented emergency care was the most common seeking care attitude for refugee patients and a patient's request to have a tooth/teeth removed, despite its restorability. In addition, it has been suggested that displacement leads to an increase in the burden of dental caries amongst refugees and a deterioration in their oral health 18,24,25 . The findings of this study are consistent with this notion, where caries was the most common cause for extraction.…”

Outro estudo apontou que crianças imigrantes e refugiadas também tem um maior risco de desenvolver a doença (Hoover;Vatanparast;Uswak, 2017), enquanto o estudo de Baker, et al 2018 As variáveis significativamente associadas à cárie foram: idade, localização geográfica, duração do aleitamento materno / mamadeira, uso de chupeta adoçada, frequência de lanches, frequência de escovação, a pessoa responsável pelos cuidados de saúde bucal da criança e o nível de escolaridade dos pais.…”
