Abstract

Descriptive and cross-sectional epidemiological studies on the prevalence of oral health conditions in the adult population are highly relevant in contemporary times, as such data are essential for guiding and improving patient care and treatment planning. In this context, the objective of this cross-sectional epidemiological study was to analyze the prevalence of periodontal diseases and the self-perception of oral health in adult patients treated at the Tiradentes University Dental Clinic from August 2018 to the second semester of 2019. This study was approved by the Research Ethics Committee under CAAE number 96052918.4.0000.5371. Periodontal condition was assessed according to WHO guidelines, using the Community Periodontal Index (CPI) and the Periodontal Attachment Loss Index (PIP). To evaluate self-perception and its impact on quality of life, the OHIP-14 (Oral Health Impact Profile) questionnaire was applied.The findings revealed that the most prevalent periodontal conditions were the presence of dental calculus and shallow periodontal pockets, with attachment loss of less than 3 mm. Regarding self-perception of oral health, the OHIP-14 test did not indicate a significant impact of these conditions on the quality of life of the participants, with an average score of 1.2. It was concluded that the patients exhibited poor periodontal conditions, with dental calculus observed in 39.83% of the cases. However, they tended to assess their own oral health positively, which does not reflect their actual periodontal status.
