The objective of this study was to determine the quality of life related to oral health, according to the perceptions of adolescents aged 11-14 and their parents, at the educational institution 0146 Su Santidad Juan Pablo II in the district of San Juan de Lurigancho in 2017. This study was descriptive, prospective, and cross-sectional. The probabilistic sample consisted of 170 adolescents aged 11-14 years with their respective parents. The instruments used were the Child Perceptions Questionnaire (CPQ 11-14) and the Parental-Caregiver Perceptions Questionnaire (P-CPQ), which were completed by the adolescents and parents. The dental caries experience was assessed through the DMFT index, and the molar relationship was also recorded. Statistical analysis was performed using Poisson regression with a robust estimator. Results: The quality of life related to oral health, according to the perceptions of the adolescents aged 11-14 years and their parents, was not statistically significant when related to age, gender, caries experience, and molar relationship. In the studied sample, the average DMFT score was 4.62 teeth with dental caries experience. The majority of adolescents rated their oral health as "good" (42.9%), while their parents rated it as "fair" (54.7%). Regarding how oral health affects their general well-being, adolescents considered it to affect them "a little" (49.4%), similar to the parents' perception (35.9%). According to the Pearson correlation analysis, there was a statistically significant correlation (40.3%) between the adolescents' quality of life related to oral health and their parents' perception of it.

Traditionally, the oral health status of a population is assessed through clinical indicators; however, it is important to evaluate the impact of this condition on the overall well-being of children. The objective of this study was to assess the impact of oral problems (dental caries and malocclusions) on oral health-related quality of life in children aged 8 to 10 years attending I.E. 32385 Virgen De Fátima in the Llata District, Huánuco, in 2016. The study was observational, prospective, cross-sectional, and analytical. The sample was convenience-based, consisting of 110 schoolchildren. The results showed that the majority of the children were 9 years old (49.1%). More than half of the children perceived that their oral health was “Very good or Good,” reflecting a positive perception. It was concluded that, according to the CPO, the average score was (10.34 ± 3.13), indicating a very high experience of dental caries, while the frequency of malocclusion types was 81.5% for Type I, 8.3% for Type II, and 10.2% for Type III. Additionally, more than half (55.5%) had a positive perception of their oral health, while about a third (74.5%) perceived that their oral health affected their quality of life. Final analyses showed that having 0 to 5 teeth with experience of dental caries significantly impacts the oral symptomatology dimension within the CPQ8-10. Furthermore, it was demonstrated that 8-year-old children have a significant risk of impact on oral symptomatology and social well-being, as well as on the overall component of oral health-related quality of life.

Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the impact of dental erosion on oral health-related quality of life in preschoolers from the district of San Juan de Lurigancho, Lima 2019. This was an observational, cross-sectional, analytical study. The sample size consisted of 150 preschoolers aged 3, 4, and 5 years from the I.E.I "Niño Jesús Mariscal Chaperito," with the consent of their respective parents. The instruments used were the "Basic Erosive Wear Examination (BEWE)" for dental erosion, and the Early Childhood Oral Health Impact Scale (ECOHIS), for quality of life. Results: The averages in both the group without erosion and with erosion were very similar. When performing the statistical test for quality of life and its dimensions, a p-value > 0.05 was obtained, indicating that there is no statistically significant difference between the impact of erosion and oral health-related quality of life (Student's t-test for independent samples; p> 0.05). Conclusion: It is concluded that the prevalence of dental erosion in preschoolers was high, and that dental erosion did not show an impact on the quality of life related to oral health.
