“…However, relatively few epidemiological studies on self-reported oral health conditions and lifestyles in populations aged between 40 and 60 years have investigated factors related to PT 3,7,24,32,62) . The purpose of this study was to determine how self-reported oral health conditions, lifestyles, oral health behaviors, and oral hygiene status correlated with tooth loss in adults aged between 40 and 60 years.…”

The purpose of this study was to identify which factors were associated with number of present teeth (PT) in older adults as their clarification might contribute to maintaining the number of PT in this population. These factors were investigated by means of a questionnaire on oral health condition, general health behavior, and anamnesis of diabetes mellitus together with a dental examination. Data were obtained from a total of 7,741 Japanese subjects (2,623 males and 5,118 females), all of whom were aged 40, 50, or 60 years. Significant differences were observed in the mean number of PT between a positive or negative response to questions on anamnesis of diabetes mellitus, current smoking, and having loose teeth in all age groups in males; significant differences were also observed for current smoking, lower intake of dairy milk products, having loose teeth, no experience of tooth brushing instruction, and poor oral hygiene status in all age groups in females. Stepwise logistic regression analysis revealed having loose teeth (odds ratio [OR], 1.82), gingival swelling (OR, 1.40), an anamnesis of diabetes mellitus (OR, 1.72), current smoking (OR, 1.86), lower intake of dairy milk products (OR, 1.22), preference for salty seasonings (OR, 1.23), frequent sweet intake (OR, 1.29), no experience of tooth brushing instruction (OR, 1.38), and poor oral hygiene (OR, 2.04) as significant risk factors for the number of PT being <24 after adjusting for age and sex. These results indicate that an anamnesis of diabetes mellitus, a history of smoking, the presence of loose teeth, and poor oral hygiene status in a self-reported evaluation of oral health might correlate with <24 PT in older adults.

“…14 Upper limb weakness, impaired mobility and environmental barriers limit the ability of people with SCI to carry out proper oral hygiene on their own 15 or make regular dental visits, 16 which was found associated with worse oral health in the general population. 17,18 Use of a mouthstick for driving and controlling devices may contribute to occlusal and oral tissue trauma 19 and promote the growth of bacteria. Altered mood and depressive symptoms are prevalent in people with SCI, 20 and depressed individuals are at higher risk for developing periodontitis 21 and have worse dental health.…”

Study design: Cross-sectional study. Objectives: To examine predictors of oral health in people with spinal cord injury (SCI). Methods: Ninety-two people with SCI (X6 months, 44% cervical level) completed questionnaires and underwent oral examination. Socio-economic, injury-related and oral habits variables were used for predicting Oral Health Score (OHS); Decayed, Missing and Filled Teeth (DMFT) score; and Periodontal Screen and Recording Index (PSR). Results: Most people with SCI were able to bring at least one hand to the mouth (82%) and brush teeth independently (65%). Regarding daily oral habits, 84% reported brushing teeth, 48% rinsing mouth, 14% flossing, 33% tobacco use and 13% mouthstick use. Only 32% had teeth cleaned within the past year. Oral examination revealed three decayed and eight missing teeth on average, with prominent periodontal disease (64%). Employment before SCI and more risky oral habits were significant predictors of worse OHS (P ¼ 0.005 and P ¼ 0.014, respectively) and PSR score (P ¼ 0.010 and P ¼ 0.035, respectively). Older age was the only predictor of worse DMFT score (Po0.001). Conclusion: Oral health appears compromised in people with SCI. Identification of modifiable risk factors warrants examination whether intervention with focus on behavioral changes may improve oral health in this population.
