Aim. To study the influence of wedged cervical lesions and dentin hypersensitivity on quality of life. Methods. 118 patients with wedged cervical lesions and dentin hypersensitivity were examined. The quality of life was assessed using the Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP-14) 14-item questionnaire focusing on seven dimensions of impact (functional limitation, pain, psychological discomfort, physical disability, psychological disability, social disability and handicap). Treatment in patients of the first group (57 patients) included dentin hypersensitivity relief using the «Nanoflyuor» fluoride varnish and dental restoration in patients with medium and promoted stages of wedged cervical lesions. Patients of the control group were treated with «Gluftored» fluoride liquid, dental restoration was performed in patients with medium and promoted stages of wedged cervical lesions. Results. Patients with superficial wedged cervical lesions had lower OHIP-14 scores, indicating better quality of life, with promoted wedged cervical lesions - higher OHIP-14 scores. OHIP-14 scores were higher in patients aged 31-40 and 41-50 years, and lower in patients aged 18-30 years and over 51 years. After treatment of promoted wedged cervical lesions OHIP-14 scores were better in the treatment group compared to the control group with statistically significant difference in functional limitation and physical disability dimensions scores, as well as in combined OHIP-14 score. In patients with medium-stage wedged cervical lesions there was a relevant difference in functional limitation, pain and psychological disability scores. There were no significant differences between the groups in patients with superficial wedged cervical lesions. Conclusion. Dentin hypersensitivity and bad dental appearance influence the patients’ comfort decreasing their quality of life, with minimal influence in patients with superficial wedged cervical lesions and maximal influence in patients with promoted wedged cervical lesions.

Dentin Hypersensitivity

The present study aimed to assess dentin hypersensitivity (DH) level and quality of life in patients before and after treatment with ozonated oil compared with extra virgin oil. This is a randomized triple-blind controlled clinical trial, consisting of patients with dentin hypersensitivity which was stimulated by evaporative and thermal stimuli. DH level was measured using a numerical rating scale. The patients were treated with ozonated oil and olive oil. Data were measured at baseline, immediately, and 4 weeks after treatment. The Dentine Hypersensitivity Experience Questionnaire (DHEQ-15) and the Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP-14) were applied at baseline and 4 weeks after treatment. The sample consisted of 8 women and 3 men, with an average age of 23.82 years. The test group was 40 teeth while the control group consisted of 36 teeth, with the most prevalent tooth being the incisor (52.6%). There was a significant reduction in the DH level and an improvement in the quality of life after treatment. Among the sample, 90.1% reported an improvement in the final result. Both ozonated oil and olive oil were effective in reducing dentin hypersensitivity level and improving oral health-related quality of life 30 days after treatment.

Dimensions Of Pain

Pain is a constant symptom of dentin hypersensitivity (DH), which is a common condition that affects daily life and negatively affects the quality of life (QoL). Diagnosis and outcome measurements following the treatment of the disease require accurate pain assessment. The definition of pain underlies the complexity of its measurement as different factors modulate daily experience. The reproducibility of the prescribed stimuli for inducing DH pain clinically is difficult to achieve. This pain mevaasurement is made with unidimensional scales that are inadequate to capture the other dimensions of pain. The only specific QoL tool available for DH still requires testing in other populations and cultures. This article reviews the appropriateness of the current methods of DH pain assessment and the tools that consider the other pain dimensions. It also looks at its impact on the oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) of people with DH. The findings will create interest and facilitate research in this field of DH pain measurement and management.

Purpose The purpose of this study was to identify levels of self-compassion in adults who do and do not stutter and to determine whether self-compassion predicts the impact of stuttering on quality of life in adults who stutter. Method Participants included 140 adults who do and do not stutter matched for age and gender. All participants completed the Self-Compassion Scale. Adults who stutter also completed the Overall Assessment of the Speaker's Experience of Stuttering. Data were analyzed for self-compassion differences between and within adults who do and do not stutter and to predict self-compassion on quality of life in adults who stutter. Results Adults who do and do not stutter exhibited no significant differences in total self-compassion, regardless of participant gender. A simple linear regression of the total self-compassion score and total Overall Assessment of the Speaker's Experience of Stuttering score showed a significant, negative linear relationship of self-compassion predicting the impact of stuttering on quality of life. Conclusions Data suggest that higher levels of self-kindness, mindfulness, and social connectedness (i.e., self-compassion) are related to reduced negative reactions to stuttering, an increased participation in daily communication situations, and an improved overall quality of life. Future research should replicate current findings and identify moderators of the self-compassion–quality of life relationship.
