School performance is a key aspect for future professional and social success. The objective of the present study was to investigate factors associated with adolescents' school performance including sense of coherence (SOC) and oral health status. Three hundred eighty one schoolchildren between 15 and 18 years of age from the city of Campo Grande, Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil, participated in the study. The outcome variable was school performance, assessed through the final grades of the Portuguese and Mathematics disciplines in 2013. Independent variables were sociodemographic data, self-perception of oral health, use of dental services and sense of coherence, obtained through a self-applied questionnaire. In addition, in a clinical assessment, the number of decayed, missing and filled teeth (DMFT index) was evaluated. Logistic regression analyses were performed, based on a hierarchical model. The mean age of students was 16 years; mean DMFT value 4.1, and SOC 44.5. In the final adjustment, the male subjects (p = 0.0021); those with the largest number of people residing at home (p = 0.0021) and weak SOC (p = 0.0005) showed an association with poorer school performance. In conclusion, school performance is a complex phenomenon associated with SOC and oral characteristics.
学业成绩是未来职业和社会成功的关键因素。本研究的目的是调查与青少年学业成绩相关的因素，包括连贯感（SOC）和口腔健康状况。来自巴西南马托格罗索州大坎普市的381名15至18岁的学童参与了这项研究。结果变量是学业成绩，通过2013年葡萄牙语和数学学科的期末成绩进行评估。自变量是社会人口统计学数据、口腔健康的自我认知、牙科服务的使用情况和连贯感，通过自填问卷获得。此外，在临床评估中，评估了龋、失、补牙数（DMFT指数）。基于分层模型进行逻辑回归分析。学生的平均年龄为16岁；平均DMFT值为4.1，SOC为44.5。在最终调整中，男性受试者（p = 0.0021）；家中居住人数最多的受试者（p = 0.0021）和较弱的SOC（p = 0.0005）与较差的学业成绩相关。总之，学业成绩是一个与SOC和口腔特征相关的复杂现象。
