Abstract

Background. This cross-sectional study aimed to evaluate the impact of pain from dental urgencies on the oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL).Methods. A sample of sixty-eight patients seeking urgent attention to a primary health unit were included. Clinical diagnosis and sociodemographic data were assessed, dental pain measured by visual analog scale (VAS) and numerical pain rating scale (NPRS). The Oral Health Impact Profile-14 (OHIP-14) instrument was used to measure the OHRQoL. Associations were analyzed using the Student t-test, except for types of urgencies, that were evaluated with one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) test.Results. The most prevalent urgency type was of endodontic origin (81%). There was no difference between pain and other variables. The type of tooth showed significant differences in OHIP-14 scores.Conclusion. Dental urgencies were associated with a high level of pain and impacted negatively on the patients’ OHRQoL. The type of tooth had a positive association the OHRQoL measures.

评估牙科急症疼痛对患者口腔健康相关生活质量的影响:一项横断面研究

背景。本横断面研究旨在评估牙科急症疼痛对口腔健康相关生活质量(OHRQoL)的影响。其中包括68名向初级保健单位寻求紧急治疗的患者。评估临床诊断和社会人口学资料，用视觉模拟量表(VAS)和数值疼痛评定量表(NPRS)测量牙痛。采用口腔健康影响量表-14 (OHIP-14)测量OHRQoL。除紧急情况类型外，关联分析使用学生t检验，使用单因素方差分析(ANOVA)检验进行评估。最常见的紧迫性类型是牙髓源性(81%)。疼痛和其他变量之间没有差异。不同牙型OHIP-14评分差异有统计学意义。牙科急症与高水平疼痛相关，并对患者的OHRQoL产生负面影响。牙齿类型与OHRQoL测量值呈正相关。
