A ques-tionnaire was applied as well as an epidemiological survey of oral health conditions in accordance withWHO. Factorial analysis was carried out with variables related to missing teeth, as well as the Fisher’s exacttest, chi-squared test and multiple logistic regression.Results:Mean age was 76.3 (±9.8), 53.5% (638) of subjects were women and 717 (60.2) were dependent.Mean of Decayed Missing and Filled Teeth Index (DMFT index) was 29.4 (±4.9). The subjects that did notuse upper and lower dentures were 61.5% (732) and 79.2% (944), respectively. Median number of missingteeth per person was 27.88 (±6.8) with a mean of 4 (±6.6) teeth present and 2.4 (±4.5) caries-free teeth.Factors associated with missing teeth following multivariate analysis were: age, sex, self-assessment of oralhealth, access to health services, type of institution and area of the country.Conclusions:High level of tooth loss and low level of rehabilitation demonstrate precarious oral health. Itis therefore necessary to improve institutional access mechanisms to public health facilities for the insti-tutionalised elderly 2023-11-28T15:29:48Z 2023-11-28T15:29:48Z 2012 article PIUVEZAM, Grasiela; LIMA, Kenio Costa de.
