No. of bitstreams: 1 Tafner_AnaPaulaMartinsdeFreitas_M.pdf: 645462 bytes, checksum: 06824b56232faa3ce6cd314cfa9e45ca (MD5) Previous issue date: 2008 / Resumo: O objetivo proposto foi avaliar a associação das condições socioeconômicas com o risco de cárie dentária e lesão inicial em crianças de 5 anos de idade da cidade de Piracicaba-SP, Brasil, em 2005. A metodologia utilizada consistiu em uma amostra de 728 crianças matriculadas em 22 pré-escolas públicas (n=428) e 18 pré-escolas privadas (n=300). Os exames foram realizados por um examinador previamente calibrado, no pátio das pré-escolas, sob luz natural, com auxílio de espelho bucal plano, sonda IPC, secagem e escovação prévia. A cárie dentária foi avaliada pelos índices ceod e ceos (OMS, 1999). Também foi feita avaliação para lesão inicial de cárie (LI). A classe socioeconômica e o tipo de escola foram as variáveis socioeconômicas analisadas, obtidas por meio de um questionário semi-estruturado enviado aos pais ou responsáveis. O trabalho apresentou os seguintes resultados: A média dos índices ceod e ceos foram 1,30 (dp=2,47) e 3,08 (dp=7,55), respectivamente, sendo que 62,2% das crianças estavam livres de cárie. A análise univariada mostrou associação significativa entre ceod (variável dependente) e renda familiar mensal acima de 4 salários (p<0,0001), escolaridade do pai (p<0,0001), escolaridade da mãe (p=0,0012), tipo de escola (p=0,0002), gengivite (p<0,0001), fluorose (p<0,0001), apinhamento dental (p=0,0300) e posse de automóvel (p=0,0143). Por meio da análise de regressão logística múltipla, a variável presença de gengivite (p=0,0002 e OR 1,870) foi considerada indicador de risco, sendo que renda familiar mensal (p<0,0001 OR=0,494 ) e presença de fluorose (p=0,0004- OR=0,408) foram fatores de proteção para o desenvolvimento de cárie dentária. Na análise univariada utilizando a variável dependente ¿ceos +LI¿, a renda familiar mensal (p<0,0001), a escolaridade do pai (p=0,0002), escolaridade da mãe (p=0,0053), tipo de escola (0,0008), gengivite (p<0,0001) e fluorose (p<0,0001) apresentaram associação significativa. Na análise de regressão logística múltipla para ¿ceod+LI¿, o sangramento gengival (p= 0,0416, OR=1,806), respiração bucal (p= 0.0416, OR=1,378) e de apinhamento (p=0,0255; OR=2,631) foram fatores de risco para a cárie dentária, enquanto renda familiar mensal (p<0,0001, OR=0,528) e fluorose (p<0,0001, OR=0,393) foram fatores de proteção. Foi possível concluir que a prevalência de cárie dentária em pré-escolares de cinco anos de idade de Piracicaba foi baixa, mas a inclusão das LI tornou-a moderada. Existe associação significativa entre renda familiar mensal e prevalência de cárie e lesão inicial. A presença de gengivite foi indicador de risco e a fluorose foi fator de proteção para cárie dentária e lesão inicial / Abstract: The considered objective was to evaluate the relationship between dental caries prevalence,socioeconomic variables and clinical (gingivitis and initial caries lesion) in 5-year-old preschool children in Piracicaba-SP, Brazil, in 2005. The used methodology was consisted of 728 preschool children attending 22 public (n=428) and 18 private (n=300) preschools. A calibrated examiner performed the clinical examination outdoors, under natural light, using dental mirror, CPI probe and air-drying. Dental caries and gingival status were measured using the dmft/dmfs and the alteration gingival indexes, respectively. Initial caries lesion (IL) was also recorded. The socioeconomic variables (type of school, monthly family income, number of people living in the household, parents¿ educational level and home ownership) were collected by means of a parental semi structured questionnaire. The work presented the following results: the mean values for dmft and dmfs indexes were 1.30 (SD=2.47) and 3.08 (SD=7.55) respectively; and children caries-free were 62.2%. The univariate analyses showed a significant association between dental caries and: monthly family income (p<0.0001), father¿s education (p<0.0001), mother¿s education (p=0.0012), type of school (p=0.0002), gingival status (p<0.0001), fluorosis (p<0.0001), dental crowding (p=0.0300), car own (p=0.0143). By means of multiple logistic regression analyses, the risk indicators of disease was gengivite (p=0.0002; OR=1.870); and monthly family income (p<0.0001; OR=0.494) and fluorosis (p=0.0004; OR=0.408) was protector indicators. The univariate analyses showed a significant association between dental caries + Li and monthly family income (p<0.0001), father¿s education (p=0.0002), mother¿s education (p=0.0053), type of school (p=0.0008), gingival status (p<0.0001), fluorosis (p<0.0001). By means of multiple logistic regression analyses, the risk indicators of disease was gengival status (p=0,0416; OR=1,806), and monthly family income (p<0.0001; OR=0,528) and fluorosis (p<0.0001; OR=0.393) was protector indicators. Mouth breathing (p= 0.0416; OR=1.378) and dental crowing(p=0.0255; OR=2.631) was the risk indicators of disease. It was possible to conclude that the prevalence of dental caries in 5-year-old preschool children in Piracicaba was low , but including IL its became moderate. There is a significant association between dental caries and IL and monthly family income. The risk indicators of disease was gengival status and fluorosis was protector indicator / Mestrado / Saude Coletiva / Mestre em Odontologia
