Introdução: A saúde e a saúde oral influenciam a qualidade de vida. A doença periodontal é uma doença infeciosa caracterizada pela inflamação dos tecidos de suporte do dente, que pode levar à destruição do ligamento periodontal, osso alveolar e possivelmente à perda dentária. Apesar da eficácia clínica do tratamento os resultados baseados nos pacientes são limitados. A influência do tratamento na Qualidade de Vida Relacionada com a Saúde Oral (QVRSO) evidencia a importância de considerar a opinião do paciente na eficácia do tratamento.
Objetivo: Avaliação do nível de satisfação e impacto na qualidade de vida em pacientes que realizaram tratamento periodontal na FMDUL.
Materiais e métodos: Foi realizada uma entrevista com base no questionário General Oral Health Assessment Index (GOHAI) a 11 pacientes após terminarem o tratamento periodontal. Para além das 12 questões que constituem o questionário foram adicionadas 7. Com exceção das perguntas 1 e 7, cada questão teria de ser respondida em relação a duas fases: antes de iniciar o tratamento e após terminar a fase higiénica ou corretiva.
Resultados: Os resultados do GOHAI variam inversamente com a QVRSO, ou seja, quanto maior o valor obtido no GOHAI pior será a QVRSO. Verificou-se uma diferença marginalmente significativa entre as respostas ao questionário GOHAI antes e depois do tratamento, variando a média dos resultados entre 20,09 e 16,36, o que indica uma melhoria na QVRSO após o tratamento periodontal e na categoria “Dor e desconforto” onde os valores desceram de 5,00 para 3,90. Quando se relaciona os resultados do GOHAI com a higiene interdentária, os pacientes que não tinham este hábito antes do tratamento, obtiveram o maior aumento de QVRSO.
Conclusão: Após o tratamento periodontal, os pacientes ficaram satisfeitos e a QVRSO no geral melhorou, principalmente no “Impacto psicológico” e na “Dor e desconforto”.
Introduction: General health and oral health have significant impact on the quality of life. Periodontal disease is an infectious disease characterized by inflammation of the tissues that support the teeth. This can lead to the destruction of the periodontal ligament and alveolar bone and ultimately tooth loss. While periodontal disease can be clinically treated effectively, patient outcomes are often limited. The influence of treatment on the Oral Health Related Quality of Life (OHRQoL) highlights the importance of considering the patient’s opinion on the effectiveness of periodontal treatment. Aim: Assessment of the level of satisfaction and impact on quality of life in patients who underwent periodontal treatment at FMDUL. Materials and Methods: After completing periodontal treatment, 11 patients were interviewed using the General Oral Health Assessment Index (GOHAI) questionnaire. Seven additional questions were added to the original 12. With the exception of questions 1 and 7, each question would be related to two different phases: before starting treatment and after finishing it. Results: The GOHAI results are inversely proportional to the OHRQoL, meaning that higher GOHAI results indicate worse OHRQoL. A marginally significant difference was found between the GOHAI questionnaire answers before and after periodontal treatment, with a mean decrease ranging from 20,09 to 16,36, indicating an improvement in OHRQoL after treatment and in the “Pain and discomfort” category, where the values decreased from 5,00 to 3,90. Patients who did not perform interdental hygiene before periodontal treatment had the greatest increase in OHRQoL after treatment. Conclusion: After periodontal treatment the patients were satisfied and the overall OHRQoL improved, especially in the “Psychological impact” and “Pain and discomfort” categories.
