ABSTRACT
Background: Quality of life related to oral health is assessed through
the individual’s self-perceived oral health (SPOH). The objective is to
determine SPOH in relation to socio-demographic and health characteristics
in older adults beneficiaries from the Instituto Mexicano del Seguro
Social (IMSS) in Mexico City.
Methods: Cross-sectional study. We used data collection with questionnaire
and assessment scales related to socio-demographic, health
and dependency variables, as well as the visit to the dentist, the use
of removable dental prostheses and SPOH. The self-perception means
(Geriatric/General Oral Health Assessment Index-GOHAI) were calculated,
and we used Student’s
t, ANOVA and Bonferroni
post hoc tests.
Results: 60.5% were women; the average age of population was
68.23 ± 7.0. GOHAI total mean was 48.07 (48.05-48.08). Compared
to their counterparts, people with the next features showed marked
improvement in SPOH: of 60-69 years of age, separated or divorced,
≥ 7 years of study, paid work, living alone, no smoking, drinking alcohol,
with a good health perception, low weight, no cognitive impairment,
no depression, no anxiety, no comorbidity, consumption ‹ 5 drugs, with
limitations in basic activities, without limitations in instrumental activities,
who did not visit the dentist and who did not use removable prosthesis.
Conclusion: The concept of quality of life essentially incorporates the
SPOH as a need in the evaluation of health outcomes.
