Abstract(s)
Objetivos: Avaliar a relação entre as medidas clínicas de diagnóstico ortodôntico mensuradas através de dois índices, Index of Complexity, Outcome and Need (ICON) e Dental Aesthetic Index (DAI) e o valor de saúde oral (VSO) medido através do instrumento (Oral Health Value Scale – versão portuguesa) OHVS-PT.
Materiais e Métodos: Numa amostra de 44 participantes, com idade igual ou superior a 18 anos, competência linguística em português, que compareceram na primeira consulta assistencial de ortodontia da Clínica Universitária Egas Moniz, foram recolhidas informações relativas a dados sócio-demográficos, nomeadamente, idade, sexo, nível de educação, estado civil, estado de empregabilidade, comorbilidades, hábitos tabágicos, hábitos de higiene oral, última ida ao dentista, e motivo da consulta de ortodontia.
Posteriormente foi aplicado o questionário OHVS-PT, analisados os modelos de estudos e fotografias intraorais de forma a recolher informações relativas à oclusão do participante e seguidamente aplicar o ICON e o DAI.
Resultados: A maioria da amostra pertence ao sexo feminino (59,1%) sendo a idade média 34 anos. Vinte e dois participantes eram não fumadores (50%), a maioria escova os dentes 2 vezes por dia (54,5%) e não realizam higiene interproximal (47,7%). Nos casos em que a complexidade do tratamento avaliada pelo ICON foi considerada fácil a leve, foi reportado um OHVS superior. O score DAI obteve uma maior pontuação no
nível moderado a muito difícil, tais como as sub-escalas Serviços médico-dentários e Uso do fio dentário. Quando comparadas as variáveis, verificámos que o DAI está associado aos VSO, ao contrário do ICON, que apenas revelou estar associado aos Serviços Médico dentários.
Conclusão: Os VSO demonstraram-se aumentados em casos em que a complexidade do tratamento ortodôntico é considerada fácil ou leve. O DAI mostrou estar associado aos VSO. O ICON mostrou não estar associado aos VSO, só ao o valor atribuído aos Serviços médico-dentários.
Objectives: To assess the relationship between clinical measures of orthodontic diagnosis measured using two indices, the Index of Complexity, Outcome and Need (ICON) and the Dental Aesthetic Index (DAI), and the Oral Health Value (OHV) measured using the instrument Oral Health Value Scale – Portuguese version (OHVSPT). Materials and Methods: In a sample of 44 participants, aged 18 years or older, with Portuguese language proficiency, who attended the initial orthodontic appointment at the Egas Moniz University Clinic, information was collected regarding socio-demographic data, including age, gender, level of education, marital status, employment status, comorbidities, smoking habits, oral hygiene habits, last dental visit, and motive for orthodontic appointment. Subsequently, the OHVS-PT questionnaire was administered, study models and intra-oral photographs were analyzed to collect information on the participant’s occlusion, and then the ICON and DAI were applied. Results: The maiority of the sample were female (59.1%), with a mean age of 34 years. Twenty-two participants were non-smokers (50%), the majority brushed their teeth twice a day (54.5%) and did not engage in interproximal hygiene (47.7%). In cases where the treatment complexity assessed by ICON was considered easy to mild, a higher OHVS score was reported. The DAI score obtained a higher score at the moderate to very difficult level, particularly in the Medical-Dental Services and Dental Floss Use subscales. When comparing the variables, it was found that DAI is associated with OHV, unlike ICON, which was only associated with Medical-Dental Services. Conclusion: OHV was found to be higher in cases where the complexity of orthodontic treatment is considered easy or mild. DAI was shown to be associated with OHV, whereas ICON was not associated with OHV, only with the value attributed to medical-dental services.
