TAILIEUCHUNG - Implications of Edentulism on Quality of Life among Elderly

The system we developed is quick, reliable, safe, inexpensive, effective, easy, and cleans the entire mouth. Furthermore, for people who require a higher level of care, such as those who cannot communicate well, dislike oral care provided by a caregiver, or have difficulty gargling so that this oral care system cannot easily be used, we have developed an oral care support instrument for the convenient and appropriate provision of oral care. These procedures are now being applied clinically with the aim of improving the QOL of both dependent elderly and their care providers. . | Int. J. Environ. Res.

Received 19 October 2011 in revised form 3 December 2011 Accepted 15 December 2011 Published 4 January 2012 Abstract This study aimed was to test the association between quality of life and edentulism among elderly individuals in a city in southeastern Brazil. This cross-sectional study was carried out with 163 individuals aged 60 years or older functionally independent and non-institutionalized. Data were collected with a questionnaire and oral examination. The edentulism was the dependent variable. The independent variables were sex age household income and quality of life WHOQOL-Old and their scores. To assess the association between the dependent variable and independent variables was used bivariate analysis p . Poisson regression model was performed adjusting for age and sex. The average age of participants was 69 years were female and were diagnosed as completely edentulous 90 CI . When the independent variables were associated to the prevalence of edentulism statistically significant associations were found for age p and social participation
