“…In this study, caries prevalence and dmft of children were very high, and almost all of the carious teeth were untreated. The items 'difficulty eating' and 'difficulty in sleeping had the highest mean scores on both the child and parent/caregiver versions of the SOHO-5, which is in agreement with the previous studies (Abanto, Tsakos, Paiva, Carvalho, et al, 2014;Dantas et al, 2015;Matheus F Perazzo et al, 2017). This functional limitation is frequently associated with pain due to dental caries and caries was the only oral clinical condition to cause an impact on all items and total scores of children self-report and parental version of the Myanmar SOHO-5.…”

Purpose: The study aimed�to develop the cross-cultural adaptation and psychometric properties of the Myanmar Version of SOHO-5 and assess the impact of ECC on oral health quality of life among 5-year-old children in Mandalay using the Myanmar version of the SOHO-5 questionnaire.�Materials and methods:�The Myanmar SOHO-5 version was conducted with the forward-backward translation method and investigated the content validity, internal consistency, test-retest reliability, construct validity, and discriminant validity�on 5-year-old children and their parents in phase I. A cross-sectional study was conducted using�a self-administered questionnaire�to�investigate�the impact of ECC and relative factors on the oral health related quality of life of children�in phase II.�A total of 509 childparent�pairs�in seven districts of Mandalay city, Myanmar�were recruited to collect data�related to the child's demographic, oral health�behavior, and children's OHRQoL using parental and child versions of SOHO-5 questionnaire.��Clinical�examinations were performed to determine the dmfs caries.�Chi-squared analysis�and multiple logistic regression were�used to analyze the data.�Results:�In Phase I, the questionnaires were tested on 173 five years old children and their parents for reliability and validity. Cronbach's alpha coefficient values for internal consistency were 0.82 for the children's report and 0.79 for the parental report. The ICCs were 0.90 and 0.89 for the total scores of the children and parental versions in the test-retest reliability analysis. The total SOHO-5 scores for both reports were significantly associated with the global rating questions except for the 'impact on children's general health' question in the parental report. Furthermore, the Myanmar version discriminated between the children with and without caries experiences (p < 0.001). The result in phase II showed that�64.4 % of children reported an impact on OHRQoL (SOHO-5 score > 0), and 67.8% of the parent reported an impact on their children's OHRQoL. The mean (standard deviation) total score of the SOHO-5 was 1.8 (2.2) and 2.6 (3.2), for child self-report and parental version, respectively.�In�multivariate logistic regression analysis, children with a higher dmft score had a significantly higher chance of having a poorer OHRQoL (OR: 1.23 (95% CI 1.16 - 1.31,�p�< 0.001) for children's report and (OR:��1.24, 95% CI 1.17 - 1.33,�p�< 0.001)�for parent's report. Moreover,�the debris score (OR: 2.12, 95% CI 1.39 3.23, p < 0.001) and the starting age for tooth brushing (OR: 1.61, 95% CI 1.03 2.51, p = 0.037) were the significant factors affecting children's OHRQoL based on children's report. Similarly in parent's report,�the debris score (OR: 2.08, 95% CI 1.35 3.21, p = 0.001), starting age for tooth brushing (OR: 1.89, 95% CI 1.21 2.98, p = 0.006) and brushing day per week (OR: 1.98, 95% CI 1.00 3.92), p < 0.049) had a greater probability of exerting an impact on children's OHRQoL.�Conclusion:�This study provides evidence that the Myanmar SOHO-5 version's children and parental reports have good reliability and validity and can be used to assess the OHRQoL of 5-year-old children in a Burmese-speaking population.�In phase II, there was a significant relationship between ECC and OHRQoL of 5-year-old children in terms of the perceptions of both children and their parents. Furthermore,�the study�showed that�the children's OHRQoL was significantly associated with�caries experiences, oral hygiene status, and starting age�for�tooth brushing in both reports, and brushing days per week in the parent report.

“…In contrast, malocclusion was found to exert no impact on OHRQoL in this phase of life Sousa et al, 2014]. However, all the studies cited used a proxy measure (ECOHIS), and most investigations using the SOHO-5 have employed a convenience sample [Abanto et al, 2013[Abanto et al, , 2014Dantas et al, 2015]. Studies using the SOHO-5 with a representative sample have revealed a correlation with the ECOHIS [Fernandes et al, 2015] as well as the negative impact of cavities and increased overjet on OHRQoL [Abanto et al, 2017].…”

The aim of the present study was to evaluate the influence of the severity/activity of dental caries as well as sense of coherence (SOC) and locus of control (LOC) on oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) among 5-year-old children. A cross-sectional study was conducted involving 769 children at schools in a city in northeast Brazil. Parents/caregivers answered validated questionnaires addressing SOC and LOC. The children and parents/caregivers answered their respective modules of the Brazilian version of the Scale of Oral Health Outcomes for 5-year-old children (SOHO-5). Data were also collected on sociodemographic characteristics, visits to the dentist, and the occurrence of toothache. Clinical examinations were performed by 2 trained examiners. A directed acyclic graph was used to select covariates for statistical adjustment, and logistic regression for complex samples was used to test associations between the dependent and independent variables (α = 5%). For parents/caregivers, the variables associated with a negative impact on OHRQoL were the occurrence of toothache (odds ratio, OR: 10.53; 95% confidence interval, CI: 6.34–17.51; p < 0.001) and a low SOC (OR: 2.17; 95% CI: 1.37–3.43; p = 0.001). According to the children’s perceptions, the following variables were associated with a negative impact on OHRQoL: toothache (OR: 3.58; 95% CI: 2.30–5.55; p < 0.001), caries activity (OR: 1.97; 95% CI: 1.07–3.62; p = 0.028), and traumatic dental injury (OR: 1.71; 95% CI: 1.15–2.53; p = 0.007). Among parents/caregivers, a low SOC led to poorer OHRQoL. For the children, however, neither psychological aspect affected OHRQoL. In the perception of both the parents/caregivers and children, toothache was the oral condition that exerted a negative impact on OHRQoL.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the association between oral health problems and oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) of preschool children according to both self-reports and the reports of parents/caregivers. A school-based, cross-sectional study was conducted with 769 preschool children and their parents/caregivers. The OHRQoL was evaluated using the Scale of Oral Health Outcomes for Five-Year-Old Children (SOHO-5). Based on logistic regression for complex samples, the following variables were found to be associated with poorer OHRQoL in the parent/caregiver version: toothache (OR = 6.77; 95% CI: 3.95-11.59); consequences of untreated dental caries (OR = 2.69; 95% CI: 1.27-5.70); and anterior open bite (OR = 2.01; 95% CI: 1.13-3.56). The following variables were associated with poorer OHRQoL in the child self-report version: toothache (OR = 3.34; 95% CI: 2.11-5.29); cavitated lesions (anterior teeth) (OR = 2.20; 95% CI: 1.26-3.84); occurrence of traumatic dental injury (OR = 1.77; 95% CI: 1.19-2.61); and anterior open bite (OR = 1.95; 95% CI: 1.16-3.29). We conclude that children with dental caries (or its sequelae) had poorer OHRQoL. Having experienced a traumatic dental injury and having a malocclusion were also associated with a poorer OHRQoL.
