“…Finally, our data, together with the report of the original randomized control trial (24), provide evidence for the effectiveness of domiciliary dental care in relieving physical symptoms and improving day-to-day physical, psychological and, to a lesser extent, social functioning.…”

The results support Wilson and Cleary's conceptual model of patient outcomes as applied to elderly edentulous people. They highlight the importance of assessing a range of patient-orientated variables in order to help gain a greater understanding of how oral health impacts on individuals' daily lives and well-being. Further conceptual development of the model is discussed, particularly the role of individual difference factors.

“…The data were collected as part of a community based randomized control trial of a domiciliary denture service for older people [see Pearson et al. (24) for full description of sample and intervention]. Participants comprised a consecutive sample of older people aged 65 years or over who needed complete dentures ( n = 133).…”

“…Just over half of our sample were edentulous which is higher than the reported frequency of 40% in the population Health Survey for England 2000 (Stewart and Hirani, 2007). The domiciliary dental services have been shown to benefit community-living older patients requiring complete dentures (Pearson et al, 2007) and specialist community dental services have been developed to meet the dental health needs of younger people with mental illness (Dicks, 1995;Chalmers et al, 1998). In our sample, edentulism was associated with not being registered with a dentist and not seeing a dentist in the previous year.…”

“…Whereas some intervention studies have addressed the evaluative properties of the OIDP inventory, this study adds to the literature by demonstrating its responsiveness to change in oral health occurring naturally among non-institutionalized elderly in a cross-cultural context [25-27]. Thus, as a longitudinal cohort study without the inclusion of an intervention of known efficacy, the changes observed might document the natural history of changes in oral health of elderly in Norway and Sweden between age 65 and 70.…”

Change in Oral Impacts on Daily Performances (OIDP) with increasing age: testing the evaluative properties of the OIDP frequency inventory using prospective data from Norway and Sweden

BackgroundOral health-related quality of life, OHRQoL, among elderly is an important concern for the health and welfare policy in Norway and Sweden. The aim of the study was to assess reproducibility, longitudinal validity and responsiveness of the OIDP frequency score. Whether the temporal relationship between tooth loss and OIDP varied by country of residence was also investigated.MethodsIn 2007 and 2012, all inhabitants born in 1942 in three and two counties of Norway and Sweden were invited to participate in a self-administered questionnaire survey. In Norway the response rates were 58.0% (4211/7248) and 54.5% (3733/6841) in 2007 and 2012. Corresponding figures in Sweden were 73.1% (6078/8313) and 72.2% (5697/7889), respectively.ResultsReproducibility of the OIDP in terms of intra-class correlation coefficient (ICC) was 0.73 in Norway and 0.77 in Sweden. The mean change scores for OIDP were predominantly negative among those who worsened, zero in those who did not change and positive in participants who improved change scores of the reference variables; self-reported oral health and tooth loss. General Linear Models (GLM) repeated measures revealed significant interactions between OIDP and change scores of the reference variables (p < 0.05). Stratified analysis revealed that the mean OIDP frequency score worsened in participants who became dissatisfied- and improved in participants who became satisfied with oral health. Compared to participants who maintained all teeth, those who lost teeth were more likely to experience improvement and worsening of OIDP across both countries. The two-way interaction between country and tooth loss was not statistically significant.ConclusionsChanges in OIDP at the individual level were more pronounced than the percentage distribution of OIDP at each point in time would suggest. The OIDP frequency score showed promising evaluative properties in terms of acceptable longitudinal validity, responsiveness and reproducibility among older people in Norway and Sweden. This suggests that the OIDP instrument is able to detect change in the oral health status that occurred over the 5 year period investigated. Norwegian elderly were more likely to report worsening in OIDP than their Swedish counterparts. Disease prevention should be at focus when formulating the health policy for older people.
