Abstract

OBJECTIVE: Epidemiological studies have great importance for oral health as they show the prevalence of various diseases in their respective environments, in addition to being able to characterize a given population. The objective of this work is to identify the prevalence of oral lesions in dental clinics of the Faculty of Agricultural Sciences and Health of the Metropolitan Union of Education and Culture (UNIME – Lauro de Freitas) in order to characterize the epidemiological profile of this population.METHODS: The sample was composed by 434 histopathological reports of oral lesions diagnosed from 2003 to 2014, correlating them with the following variables: sex, age, type of biopsy (incisional/excisional), histopathologic diagnosis, clinical suspicion and anatomical location.REULTS: The epidemiological profile of patients affected by oral diseases had high percentage of females (62.9%), with mean age of 39 years, and the most prevalent type of biopsy was the excisional (72.81%). The data showed non-neoplastic proliferative processes as the most prevalent group of lesions (24.2%), followed by odontogenic cysts (17.5%). Lesions were most often presented in the mandible (19.6%), followed by periapex (18.89%), gum (11.75%) and jugal mucosa (9.45%).CONCLUSION: The non-neoplastic proliferative processes can be prevented with simple measures of oral health.

巴伊亚Lauro de Freitas UNIME组织病理学实验室诊断的颌面部复合体病变的流行病学研究

目的：流行病学研究对口腔健康具有重要意义，因为它们除了能够描述特定人群的特征外，还可以显示各种疾病在各自环境中的流行率。这项工作的目的是确定大都会教育和文化联盟农业科学与健康学院（UNIME–Lauro de Freitas）牙科诊所口腔病变的流行率，以确定这一人群的流行病学特征。方法：样本由434份2003年至2014年诊断的口腔病变的组织病理学报告组成，并与以下变量相关：性别、年龄、活检类型（切口/切除）、组织病理学诊断、临床怀疑和解剖位置。结果：口腔疾病患者的流行病学特征中，女性比例较高（62.9%），平均年龄39岁，最常见的活检类型是切除活检（72.81%）。数据显示，非肿瘤性增生过程是最常见的病变组（24.2%），其次是牙源性囊肿（17.5%）。病变最常见于下颌骨（19.6%），其次是根尖周（18.89%）、牙龈（11.75%）和颈黏膜（9.45%）。结论：通过简单的口腔健康措施可以预防非肿瘤性增生过程。

期刊介绍： Cessation. The Revista Odonto Ciência is a peer-reviewed journal published online (ISSN 1980-6523), four times per year, supported by the Pontifical Catholic University of Rio Grande do Sul – Dental School since 1986. Its abbreviation is Rev Odonto Cienc, which should be used in references, bibliographic legends, and footnotes. The Revista Odonto Ciência is an international scientific journal dedicated to provide a forum for academics, researchers, and practitioners to communicate relevant basic, clinical, education, and epidemiological studies in Dentistry and related fields. The Journal seeks to publish articles on new conceptual models, innovative technology, alternative procedures or treatment to reduce disease burden in the general population or specific groups, thus contributing to translating science into practice and social development. Contributions falling into the following categories will be considered for publication: 1) original research reports of basic and applied oral sciences, epidemiological, and education studies; 2) review article; 3) case report. The Revista Odonto Ciência only accepts manuscripts written in English. Manuscripts submitted to this journal should not have been published before nor have publication pending elsewhere.
