Abstract(s)
Objetivos: O objetivo deste estudo foi investigar a prevalência da cárie dentária em crianças
da organização não governamental (ONG) “Pour un sourire d’enfant” (PSE) em função da
idade, sexo, peso corporal/estatura e avaliar uma possível correlação com o índice de massa
corporal por idade (IMC-por-idade).
Material e métodos: Realizou-se um levantamento epidemiológico transversal que ocorreu
em todo o mês de junho de 2017.Todos os participantes eram estudantes de PSE, 344 crianças
e adolescentes de 6 a 18 anos foram examinados. O IMC-por-idade e o índice de dentes
cariados, perdidos e obturados (CPO) foram gravados em softwares como AnthroPlus versão
1.0.4 da Organização Mundial da Saúde e SPSS (Pacote Estatístico para Ciências Sociais)
versão 24. Os testes X² de Pearson, Kruskal-Wallis H e Mann-Whitney U foram utilizados
para comparações univariadas. A associação multivariada entre os fatores independentes e
CPO foi avaliada usando o coeficiente de Spearman, do tau de Kendall e de Pearson (o valor
de p foi estabelecido em 0.05, o que foi estatisticamente significativo).
Resultados: O CPO médio foi de 5.83 (± 3.84), com experiência de cárie que afetou 94.8%
de crianças e adolescentes, especialmente em idade de 6 anos e em grupos de 6-11 anos. A
maioria (67%) apresentava IMC-por-idade normal, 25% apresentavam baixo peso e 8% acima
do peso. Nenhuma associação significativa foi encontrada entre a cárie dentária e local, sexo,
classes de IMC-por-idade, mas uma correlação negativa entre a cárie dentária em função da
idade, e da distribuição do IMC-por-idade foi comprovada (p <0,05).
Conclusão: O estudo mostrou uma associação estatisticamente significante entre caries
dentárias e IMC para esta amostra. À medida que o IMC aumentou houve um declínio
significativo no número de cáries dentárias entre os participantes, o excesso de peso mostrou
dentes mais saudáveis do que outros.
Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate the prevalence of dental caries on children from the association « Pour un sourire d’enfant » (PSE) in accordance with age, sex, weight/height, and evaluate a possible correlation with body mass index for age (BMI-forage). Material and methods: This study was a cross-sectional epidemiological survey which took place on the entire month of June 2017. All participants were students from PSE, 344 children and adolescents from 6 to 18 years have been examined. BMI-for-age and index of teeth decayed, missed, filled (DMFT) were recorded on software: WHO AnthroPlus version 1.0.4 and SPSS (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences) version 24. The X² of Pearson test, Kruskal-Wallis H test and Mann-Whitney U Test were used for univariate comparisons. Multivariate association between independent factors and DMFT was assessed using Spearman's coefficient, Kendall's tau coefficient and Pearson’s coefficient (p value was set up at 0.05 which was statistically significant). Results: The mean DMFT was 5.83 (±3.84) with caries experience affecting 94.8% of children and adolescents, especially at 6 years old and in class of 6 to 11 years old. The majority (67%) had normal BMI-for-age, 25% were underweight and 8% overweight. No significant association were found between dental caries and locality, gender, classes of BMIfor- age, but a negative correlation between dental caries in function of age and distribution of BMI-for-age has been proved (p<0.05). Conclusion: The study showed a statistically significant association between dental caries and BMI for this sample. As the BMI increased there was a significant decline in the number of dental caries among the participants, overweight showed healthier teeth than others did.
