Objetivo: O objetivo deste estudo foi compreender a percepção materna sobre a qualidade de vida de crianças, portadoras de cárie na primeira infância (CPI). Material e Método: O objeto de estudo foram seis mães de crianças em tratamento na Clínica de Odontologia da Universidade de Ribeirão Preto. Realizou-se entrevista semi-estruturada gravada. Os dados foram analisados segundo a técnica de Análise de Conteúdo proposta por Bardin e utilizando-se os conceitos teóricos oriundos de Bronfembrenner para avaliar aspectos da CPI que interferem no pleno desenvolvimento da pessoa desde a infância. Depreendeu-se dos dados, 03 categorias empíricas: 1ª - “o dente natural é tudo”; 2ª - “ Procura o dentista quando tem dor” e 3ª - “A mãe tem responsabilidade no aparecimento da cárie porque não limpa a boca da criança”. Resultados: Os resultados demonstraram que a influência dos aspectos sócio-econômicos e educacionais das mães tornam as crianças mais vulneráveis à CPI. As mães compreendem a importância dos dentes na saúde bucal, porém, não atribuem a presença da CPI a predispor as crianças ao desenvolvimento de problemas sistêmicos e afetar o desenvolvimento biopsicossocial. As mães apontaram falhas no atendimento das crianças e de acesso ao serviço público, assim como, o despreparo dos profissionais do serviço público e privado. Conclusão: Conclui-se que que existe necessidade de ampliação de medidas socioeducativas tanto para mães quanto crianças, assim como estratégias que visem formar e ampliar o conhecimento coletivo em saúde bucal e melhoria da Política Nacional da Saúde Bucal.Descritores: Comportamento Materno; Qualidade de Vida, Cárie Dentária; Saúde da Criança.ReferênciasCalcagnile F, Pietrunti D, Pranno N, Di Giorgio G, Ottolenghi L, Vozza I.

Objective: The aim of the present study was to assess the prevalence of the early childhood caries (S-ECC) and its impact on preschool children’s life (aged 4-6), as well as on their parents, in one of the most popular prefectures in Casablanca, Morocco. Materials and Methods: Parents of 546 children attending 11 randomly selected preschools (7 private and 4 public institutions) were invited to complete 13 items of an oral health questionnaire and had their children undergo a dental examination. The quality of life was evaluated using the Early Childhood Oral Health Impact Scale (ECOHIS). Statistical analysis: The data collected were analyzed using the SPSS (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences). To find the comparison between groups, Chi-square test was used. Results: The prevalence of the ECC and the S-ECC were 74.2% and 47.3% respectively. The negative effect of S-ECC on children’s quality of life has many aspects: 59.3% of them have experienced tooth pain, 41.5% have reported eating difficulties, and 41.3% have had drinking difficulties. Moreover, 40% of parents expressed feelings of guilt and 10.6% had to take time off work due to their children’s oral health status. On another note, the financial impact of the S-ECC was also significant. Conclusion: The S-ECC negatively impacts the life quality of children aged between 4 and 6 years old in addition to their parents’. This suggests a need for further strategic planning and preventive program adapted to such a public health problem.

Purpose: The oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) of preschool children with Early Childhood Caries (ECC) was used to assess the outcome of dental treatment. Study design: Children (3.56±1.31years) affected by ECC were selected. Anamnesis, clinical and radiographic exams were performed. Data about sociodemographic aspects, OHRQoL and dmf-t index were collected. The Brazilian version of Early Childhood Oral health Impact Scale (B-ECOHIS) was applied in two time intervals: before and after 30 days of treatment. B-ECOHIS scores and effect size (ES) were used to evaluate the OHRQoL of preschool children. The Student's-t test was used for comparison between the B-ECOHIS averages, considering the following aspects: gender, age, socioeconomic status, severity of caries and type of treatment. Results: The mean dmf-t was 6.25±4.20 and no differences between boys (6.00±4.32) and girls (6.83±4.35) (p=0,942) were found. Pain and psychological problems among children and parents feeling upset and guilty were the most frequently reported impacts at baseline. There was a greater impact on girls (17.67±8.68) than on boys (13.30±10.53) (p<0.001); and on children younger than 4 years (16.71±9.96) (p<0.05). The highest B-ECOHIS scores were observed in treatments involving dental extractions and space maintainers. There was no difference between the total B-ECOHIS scores of subjects from middle (16.24±10.30) and lower socioeconomic classes (15.97±10.26). The total scores of B-ECOHIS and its domains decreased after 30-day follow-up. Dental rehabilitation of preschool children showed a large effect size for these subjects (ES=1.19) and their families (ES=1.00). Conclusion: Dental treatment resulted in significant improvement of the preschool children's OHRQoL.

Childhood Caries

Early Childhood Caries (ECC) are one of the major oral diseases affecting children. ECC adversely affects the children’s as well as their parent/caregivers quality of life. The present study aims to assess the quality of life in children with Early Childhood Caries aged 6–72 months using the Early Childhood Oral Health Impact Scale. It also aims to compare the quality of life between children with pufa scores of > 0 and a pufa score = 0. A total of 238 children aged 6 months to 72 months with ECC and their parent/caregiver were included in the present study. Oral examinations of the children were performed by the principal examiner using the defs and pufa index, which was followed by a personal interview of the 13 items in the Early Childhood Oral Health Impact scale among the 238 parents/caregivers. The results showed that, overall, Early Childhood Caries have a negative impact on children’s quality of life, as assessed by the parent/caregiver. The overall Early Childhood Oral Health Impact scale score ranged from 0–32 (mean ± SD, 14.12 ± 6.72). Children with a pufa score > 0 (mean ± SD, 16.14 ± 6.27, p < 0.001) have significantly lower quality of life than children with pufa score = 0 (mean ± SD, 9.07 ± 4.94, p < 0.001). Early Childhood Caries had a negative impact on the quality of life of children aged 6–72 months. Children with a pufa score of “0” had better oral health-related quality of life than children with a pufa score > 0.
