Objective: A study was conducted to evaluate the impact of the placement of complete dentures by using the Global Oral Health Assessment Index (GOHAI). Background: Oral health quality of life indicators can be used to evaluate the effects of dental treatments. Material and methods: The 26 participants were treated in a French University Clinic during 2002. They were randomly divided into two groups. Each group received new prostheses, but evaluation of the quality of life was made at different periods [baseline, denture placement (group 1), 6 and 12 weeks (group 2) after placement]. A questionnaire was used to collect information on patient's satisfaction with the previous and new prostheses. Nonparametric tests were used to test the relationships between patients’ satisfaction or baseline data and GOHAI variations with time as well as to compare mean values of GOHAI within each group. Results: At baseline, the impact of oral health problems was apparent; the mean GOHAI‐Add score was 45.8 (10.2). Six weeks after placement of the new denture, there was no difference in GOHAI scores compared with the initial assessment. An improvement in GOHAI score was observed 12 weeks after the participants received their new dentures (p < 0.05). Change in GOHAI‐Add scores was negatively correlated with the initial GOHAI‐Add score. Patients who preferred the new prosthesis enjoyed a positive change in GOHAI scores (p < 0.001). There was a relationship between participants’ satisfaction with the new dentures and change in GOHAI scores (p < 0.05). Conclusion: The GOHAI can be used to evaluate needs for and effect of the making of new complete dentures. 相似文献

doi:10.1111/j.1741‐2358.2009.00323.x Assessment of changes in oral health‐related quality of life among patients with complete denture before and 1 month post‐insertion using Geriatric Oral Health Assessment Index Objective: Geriatric Oral Health Assessment Index (GOHAI) is a 12‐item measure of “patient‐reported oral functional problems” intended for use in the assessment of the effectiveness of dental treatment. Design and Setting: As there is scanty literature available on GOHAI in the Indian population, the present study was undertaken to assess the changes in GOHAI before and 1 month after placement of dentures in completely edentulous patients reporting to a dental hospital at Indore, India. Measurements: The GOHAI questionnaire was completed by the examiner who interviewed the patients (n = 35) before placement of complete dentures and 1 month later. Mean, median values were calculated and the data were analysed using Wilcoxon signed‐rank test. Results: When overall mean was considered, the GOHAI scores increased from 27.48 to 30.19 (p = 0.002; highly significant). Conclusion: Patients reported improvement in functional changes after placement of complete dentures. 相似文献

Rationale and objectives: Considering the controversy in the literature regarding several aspects of temporomandibular dysfunction (TMD) in elderly populations and the absence of reliable data on elderly Brazilians in this field, this study consisted of an evaluation of TMD prevalence and the self‐perception of oral health among institutionalised and community‐dwelling elderly in São José dos Campos, Brazil. Methods: Two hundred and fifteen community‐dwelling and 185 institutionalised elderly people were evaluated by the Helkimo anamnestic (Ai) and clinical dysfunction (Di) indices and answered a questionnaire using the Geriatric Oral Health Assessment Index (GOHAI). Results: The major prevalence of TMD symptoms was for the Ai0 (symptom‐free) group (69.5%), while the major prevalence of clinical signs was for the DiI (mild) group (56%). Women presented a higher AiII classification than men (χ2 test, p = 0.049). Community‐dwelling elderly presented a significantly lower Ai0 classification than the institutionalised ones (Two ratios equality test, p < 0.001). There was no relationship between the institutionalised status and the clinical dysfunction index for Di0 and DiIII classification (Two ratios equality test, p = 0.194 and 0.535 respectively). The institutionalised elderly presented greater (One‐way anova = 0.005) self‐perception of oral health (33.45) than did the community‐dwelling group (32.66). There were only weak Pearson’s correlations among the anamnestic (?33.0%) or clinical (?14.7%) findings by the TMD and GOHAI indices. Symptom‐free (Ai0) institutionalised elderly presented better scores in all GOHAI dimensions and elderly representing an absence of clinical TMD signs (Di0) presented higher GOHAI physical dimension scores in both groups. Conclusions: The prevalence of TMD symptoms among this sample of elderly individuals was relatively low, self‐perception of oral health was reasonable and a weak, inverse correlation was found between TMD signs and symptoms and elderly self‐perception of oral health measured by the GOHAI index. 相似文献
