There is need to get insight into condition-specific oral health-related quality of life in Dutch children with oligodontia. Between October 2014 and March 2017, 11-17-year-old oligodontia patients were approached to join a study assessing the impact of oligodontia on condition-specific oral health-related quality of life (OHrQoL). The patients received a condition-specific OHrQoL questionnaire prior to the start of orthodontic treatment. Non-oligodontia children in the same age group, but also requiring orthodontic treatment, were approached to serve as a control. The Fisher's Exact Test was used for comparison purposes with the control group because of the small group sizes. Furthermore, subgroup analyses were performed for gender, age, number of congenitally missing teeth, tooth agenesis in the aesthetic region, orthodontic classification and microdontia via independent -tests. -values of <0.05 were considered statistically significant. Twenty-eight oligodontia patients and 23 controls agreed to participate. The oligodontia patients' scores were comparable to the controls except for the items about dental appearance and treatment complexity. The impact of oligodontia on OHrQoL in youngsters is limited and mainly concerns dental appearance and the complexity of the treatment.
需要深入了解荷兰寡恒牙症儿童特定于口腔健康相关的生活质量。2014 年 10 月至 2017 年 3 月,接触了 11-17 岁的寡恒牙症患者,邀请他们参加一项评估寡恒牙症对特定于口腔健康相关生活质量(OHrQoL)的影响的研究。在开始正畸治疗之前,患者收到了特定于口腔健康相关生活质量的 OHrQoL 问卷。还接触了年龄相同但也需要正畸治疗的非寡恒牙症儿童作为对照组。由于样本量较小,因此使用 Fisher 确切检验与对照组进行比较。此外,还通过独立 t 检验对性别、年龄、先天缺失牙的数量、美学区牙齿缺失、正畸分类和小牙症进行了亚组分析。<0.05 的值被认为具有统计学意义。28 名寡恒牙症患者和 23 名对照组同意参加。除了关于牙齿外观和治疗复杂性的项目外,寡恒牙症患者的得分与对照组相当。寡恒牙症对年轻人 OHrQoL 的影响有限,主要涉及牙齿外观和治疗的复杂性。
