CALIDAD DE VIDA Y NECESIDAD PRÓTESIS BUCAL DE LOS TRABAJADORES DE LA EMPRESA SIDERÚRGICA ALTOS HORNOS DE MÉXICO
Abstract
México se encuentra entre los países de alto rango de frecuencia en enfermedades bucales, dentro de ellas, la caries dental y la enfermedad periodontal. Esta situación, se presenta en gran cantidad de mexicanos que pierdan sus piezas dentales y se encuentren parcialmente o totalmente desdentados lo que puede limitar la capacidad de comunicarse, comer o afectar la dimensión psicosocial del individuo. Esta investigación, se desarrolla bajo la premisa de que la calidad de vida medida a través del Índice de GOHAI está asociada a la necesidad de prótesis bucal. Menos de la mitad de la muestra necesita de prótesis nuevas o de reparación de las mismas. El grupo de edad que más necesitó prótesis, fue el de 50 a 65 años. En el presente estudio se encontró que pacientes parcialmente dentados, sin prótesis ó con prótesis insatisfactoria, presentaban índice de calidad de vida inferior a los pacientes que no necesitaban de prótesis.
Abstract
Mexico is among the countries with a high frequency range of oral diseases, within them, dental caries and periodontal disease. This situation presents a great number of Mexicans who lose their teeth and are partially or fully edentulous which may limit the ability to communicate, eat or affect the psychosocial dimension of the individual. This research was developed under the premise that the quality of life measured by the Index GOHAI is associated with the need for oral prosthesis. Less than half of the sample prosthesis need new or repair them. The age group that most needed prosthesis was 50 to 65 years. In the present study we found that partially dentate patients without prostheses or prosthetic unsatisfactory index had lower quality of life for patients who did not need oral prosthesis.
