“…The etiology and characteristics of TDI as well as predisposing factors, such as sex, accentuated overjet, inadequate lip protection and socioeconomic status, have been widely studied [ 2 , 4 , 7 , 8 ]. Social and behavioral factors have also been associated with maxillofacial and dental trauma[ 9 , 10 ], such as hazardous alcohol intake [ 11 ] and social capital [ 12 , 13 ].…”

ObjectivesTraumatic dental injury is defined as trauma caused by forces on a tooth with variable extent and severity. The aim of the present study was to investigate the prevalence of traumatic dental injury and its association with overjet, lip protection, sex, socioeconomic status, social capital and binge drinking among 12-year-old students.Research Design and MethodA cross-sectional study was conducted with a sample of 633 12-year-old students. Data were collected through a clinical exam and self-administered questionnaires. Socioeconomic status was determined based on mother’s schooling and household income. The Social Capital Questionnaire for Adolescent Students and Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test (AUDIT-C) were used to measure social capital and binge drinking, respectively.ResultsThe prevalence of traumatic dental injury was 29.9% (176/588). Traumatic dental injury was more prevalent among male adolescents (p = 0.010), those with overjet greater than 5 mm (p < 0.001) and those with inadequate lip protection (p < 0.001). In the multiple logistic regression analysis, overjet [OR = 3.80 (95% CI: 2.235–6.466), p < 0.0001], inadequate lip protection [OR = 5.585 (95% CI: 3.654–8.535), p < 0.0001] and binge drinking [OR = 1.93 (95% CI: 1.21–3.06), p = 0.005] remained significantly associated with traumatic dental injury.ConclusionsThe present findings suggest that a high level of total social capital and trust are not associated with TDI in adolescents, unlike binge drinking. The effects of social and behavioral factors on TDI are not well elucidated. Therefore, further research involving other populations and a longitudinal design is recommended.

“…The few studies in the literature on the association between the consumption of alcoholic beverages and maxillofacial or dentoalveolar trauma report conflicting results. Fewer studies have addressed the association between alcohol intake and TDI, with one investigation reporting a greater chance of TDI among adolescents with hazardous alcohol use, whereas another study found no such association.…”

“…Murphy observed the need to screen for alcohol and substance use disorder and refer patients for specialized treatment by the maxillofacial and other trauma surgeons [19]. This is because alcohol use disorder and substance use disorder are highly prevalent among patients with facial injury.…”

Background: A disfigured face resulting from a facial injury is a source of both objective and subjective stigma which predisposes one to psychiatric morbidity. The associations between socio-demographic/clinical characteristics and psychiatric morbidity among patients with facial injury at Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital (MTRH) is unknown. Objective: To assess the associations between socio-demographic/clinical characteristics and psychiatric morbidity among patients with facial injury at Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital (MTRH). Methods: The study was a descriptive and analytical cross-sectional in which the mini international neuropsychiatric interview questionnaire was administered to diagnose the presence of psychiatric morbidity and a researcher-designed questionnaire was used to collect socio-demographic and clinical characteristics. The study was done at the surgical unit of MTRH where 90 consenting patients were interviewed from January to December 2017. Categorical data were summarized with frequency tables and percentages. Association between categorical variables was analyzed by chi-square and Fisher's exact test. Logistic regression was used to measure the association between psychiatric morbidity and sociodemographic/clinical variables. Results: Ninety participants were evaluated, 77% were male. The mean age of the patients evaluated was 32±11 years. Seventy-one percent resided in rural areas. The commonest cause of facial injuries were road traffic accidents 51(57%), followed by interpersonal injuries 27(30%) and burns 11(12%). The prevalence of psychiatric morbidity among patients with facial injury at MTRH was 61.1%, of this 47.3% were diagnosed with more than one disorder. Twenty-five participants (28%) had alcohol use disorder: others included anxiety disorders 23(25.6%), depression 18(20%), other substance use disorder 13(14%), psychotic disorders 9(10%), attempted suicide 4(4%), and antisocial personality disorder 3(3%). The prevalence of alcohol use disorder among males was 35% compared to 5% among females (p=0.007). Compared to patients with facial burns patients with maxillary/ orbital fractures had 87.5% reduced odds of being diagnosed with psychiatric morbidity (AOR 0.125, P = 0.034 95%CI, 0.039, 0.859). Age, marital status, level of education, as well as cause and duration of injury were not statistically significantly associated with psychiatric morbidity. Conclusion: The study recommends that routine screening for psychiatric morbidity among patients with facial injury should be initiated and comprehensive care offered. Prevention strategies for alcohol and other substance use disorders should be initiated targeting particularly males.
