Με τη συγκεκριμένη έρευνα, επιχειρείται μία σχοινοτενής διερεύνηση και πραγμάτευση της συμπεριφοράς των ατόμων με αναπηρία και των φροντιστών τους (μαθητών, γονέων, κηδεμόνων, εκπαιδευτικών) απέναντι στην προτεινόμενη οδοντιατρική θεραπεία. Εν προκειμένω, καθίσταται μία προσπάθεια ιχνηλάτησης και κατανόησης των μεταβλητών, που επενεργούν καταλυτικά στη στάση και συμπεριφορά των ατόμων με αναπηρία και των φροντιστών τους. Στην εμπειρική έρευνα που διεξήχθη τα σχολικά έτη 2018-2019 και 2019-2020 έλαβαν μέρος εκατόν ενενήντα επτά (197) άτομα (μαθητές, γονείς, κηδεμόνες, νηπιαγωγοί, δάσκαλοι, καθηγητές) που αποτελούν μέλη λειτουργίας των ΣΜΕΑΕ («Ειδικά Νηπιαγωγεία, Ειδικά Δημοτικά, Ειδικά Γυμνάσια και Λύκεια και Ε.Ε.Ε.Ε.Κ. (Εργαστήρια Ειδικής Επαγγελματικής Εκπαίδευσης και Κατάρτισης»). Ως εργαλείο έρευνας χρησιμοποιήθηκε το ερωτηματολόγιο, το οποίο σχεδιάστηκε, συντάχθηκε και εκπονήθηκε από τον ερευνητή στη λογική αντίστοιχων διεθνών (Oral Health Impact Profile, Child Oral Health Quality of Life, Parental-Caregiver Perceptions Questionnaires, Oral Health Index) που δίνονται προς συμπλήρωση στους φροντιστές των ατόμων με αναπηρία, όταν καταφεύγουν στις οδοντιατρικές μονάδες και κλινικές, προκειμένου να εξεταστούν ώστε να ακολουθήσουν την προτεινόμενη οδοντιατρική θεραπεία. Τα εμπειρικά ευρήματα και εκβάσεις, καταληκτικά, κατάδειξαν ότι η κακή κατάσταση της στοματικής κοιλότητας των ατόμων με αναπηρία, επηρεάζει ελάχιστα τη γνωστική τους απόδοση, τον ύπνο τους, τη μάσηση των τροφών και το συναισθηματικό και συμπεριφορικό τους προφίλ κατά τη διάρκεια της σχολικής τους καθημερινότητας και ζωής.

Aim: To evaluate the oral health impact profile and its relationship with their oral health status among beautician cohorts. Materials and Methods: A cross sectional study was conducted among 147 beauticians using a simple random sampling technique. The subjects would be taken from the Porur area those who were working in the beauty parlour as a beautician. An individual interview was held, and they got a dental check-up. Oral health status was measured by WHO Proforma 2013 modification. Oral health quality of life was assessed by oral health impact profile (OHIP-14) questionnaire. Sociodemographic data were collected and questions regarding oral hygiene measures and habits. As for data analysis, chi-square test was utilized. Results: All scores showed associations with self-rated oral health quality of life and dissatisfaction with oral health status .The dentition status and gingivitis showed statistically significant with oral health impact profile (OHIP-14) Conclusion: The study reveals that the impact of oral health does not have association with oral health problems, whereas perceived satisfaction with oral health has a better association with clinical indicators. We should motivate the oral hygiene practices among beautician cohorts. Keywords: Oral health impact profile, Oral health status, Oral health problems, dental diseases, gingivitis, periodontitis, dental caries, quality of life.

As crianças estão sujeitas a problemas de saúde bucal que podem causar impacto na sua vida diária e na vida de suas famílias. A necessidade de instrumentos para acessar o impacto da saúde bucal na qualidade de vida das crianças tem sido ressaltada, e questionários foram desenvolvidos ou adaptados para este grupo específico. O objetivo deste trabalho é descrever os instrumentos de mensuração do impacto da saúde bucal na qualidade de vida de crianças e as dificuldades para esta mensuração. Entre esses instrumentos destacamos o Child Oral Health Quality of Life Questionnaire, para crianças de 6-7, 8-10 e 11-14 anos; o Child-Oral Impacts on Daily Performances, para a idade de 11-12 anos e o Early Childhood Oral Health Impact Scale para a faixa etária de 2-5 anos. Apesar dos progressos nessa área, mais estudos são necessários para a elaboração de medidas que abordem a criança dentro do processo dinâmico de saúde e doença no seu contexto psicológico, familiar e social, e a utilização, tanto na prática clínica quanto na pesquisa, dos instrumentos existentes deve ser estimulada.

Background: The aim of the study was to compare the oral-health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) between cancer survivors: with rapid orthodontic treatment (TX) (up to 12 months) and standard TX (orthodontic treatment time longer than 16 months). Methods: There were 76 cancer survivors (48 women and 28 men) allocated into groups with rapid (36 people) or standard (40 people) duration of TX. OHRQoL was assessed on the basis of Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP-14) values, measured before TX, 2 weeks and 3 months after the onset of TX, and after the end of TX. A repeated ANOVA test was used to check the statistical significance between the scores. Results: There were no significant differences regarding the OHIP-14 values between the examined groups at all stages of the examination. Both groups presented significant (p < 0.001) improvement of the values of OHRQoL at the end of TX comparing to the values achieved before the onset of TX. Conclusions: Duration of orthodontic treatment by itself had no impact on oral-health-related quality of life.
