Abstract(s)
Objetivos: Descrever a prevalência de gengivite, relacionando-a com variáveis sociodemográficas e com autoperceção da qualidade de vida relacionada com a saúde oral (QdVRSO), numa população jovem.
Materiais e Métodos: Estudo transversal, com amostra por conveniência de 53 jovens, realizado no Centro Juvenil e Comunitário Padre Amadeu Pinto, em Almada. Este projeto foi previamente aprovado pela Comissão de Ética do Instituto Universitário Egas Moniz e consentido pelos encarregados de educação dos participantes. A amostra foi observada intraoralmente e foi aplicado um questionário constituído por variáveis sociodemográficas e pelo Child Perceptions Questionnaire11-14 short form (CPQ11-14 short form). Os dados recolhidos foram submetidos a análise estatística através do software IBM SPSS® Statistics.
Resultados: A amostra varia entre os 11 e os 14 anos, sendo maioritariamente do género masculino (52,8%). A prevalência de gengivite foi 14%. A média do índice de placa (IP) foi 1,25 ± 0,05 e do índice gengival (IG) foi 0,42 ± 0,05, tendo sido verificada a correlação entre ambas as variáveis. Os valores de IP e IG foram mais prevalentes no sexo masculino. A média do IP no sexo feminino foi 1,16 ± 0,07 e no masculino foi 1,32 ± 0,06. A média do IG no sexo feminino foi 0,39 ± 0,07 e no masculino foi 0,43 ± 0,07. A média do CPQ11-14 short form foi 13,44 ± 1,47. Não se verificou associações entre o IP e o IG em função das variáveis sociodemográficas, nem encontradas correlações significativas em função do CPQ11-14 short form.
Conclusões: O resultado não evidenciou associação entre a gengivite com variáveis sociodemográficas nem com a autoperceção da QdVRSO. Estudos futuros são necessários, com uma amostra maior para permitir a avaliação da sua relação.
Objectives: Describe the prevalence of gingivitis, relating it to sociodemographic variables and self-perception of oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) in a young population. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional study, with a convenience sample of 53 young people, was carried out at the Centro Juvenil e Comunitário Padre Amadeu Pinto, in Almada. This project was previously approved by the Ethics Committee of the Instituto Universitário Egas Moniz and consented by the participants' guardians. The sample was observed intraorally and a questionnaire consisting of sociodemographic variables and the Child Perceptions Questionnaire 11-14 short form (CPQ 11-14 short form). The collected data was submitted to statistical analysis using the IBM SPSS® Statistics software. Results: The sample varies between 11 and 14 years old, being mostly male (52.8%). The prevalence of gingivitis was 14%. The mean plaque index (PI) was 1.25 ± 0.05 and the gingival index (GI) was 0.42 ± 0.05, and the correlation between both variables was verified. PI and GI values were more prevalent in males. The mean PI for females was 1.16 ± 0.07 and for males it was 1.32 ± 0.06. The mean GI in females was 0.39 ± 0.07 and in males it was 0.43 ± 0.07. The CPQ 11-14 short form mean was 13.44 ± 1.47. There were no associations between PI and GI on the sociodemographic variables, and there weren’t any significant correlations founded in CPQ 11-14 short form. Conclusion: The result did not show an association between gingivitis with sociodemographic variables or with the self-perception of OHRQoL. Future studies are needed, with a larger sample to allow the assessment of their relationship.
