Abstract
Objective

This study aimed to investigate the association between functional dentition and a prior diagnosis of diabetes mellitus (DM) and/or chronic kidney disease (CKD) in a nationally representative sample of the Brazilian population.

Methods

We conducted a cross-sectional analysis using data from the 2019 Brazilian National Health Survey (PNS). The PNS is representative of the Brazilian population. The associations between self-reported diagnoses of DM and/or CKD and the absence of functional dentition were assessed using multilevel logistic regression models, adjusted for sociodemographic and behavioral variables, such as age, sex, skin color, income, education, and smoking status.

Results

Functional dentition was absent in 9.3% of the sample (95%CI, 8.9–9.7). Additionally, 8.8% (95%CI, 8.5–9.0) reported a previous diagnosis of DM, and 1.4% (95%CI, 1.3–1.5) a prior diagnosis of CKD. The proportion of individuals with both CKD and DM was 0.29% (95%CI, 0.27–0.32). In adjusted models, DM was significantly associated with the absence of functional dentition (OR, 1.16; 95%CI, 1.07; 1.23, p<0.001). No significant association was observed for CKD (OR, 1.06; 95%CI, 0.89; 1.26, p=0.48) or for individuals with both DM and CKD (OR, 1.08; 95%CI, 0.74; 1.57, p=0.66).

Conclusion

Diabetes is associated with a higher risk of functional dentition loss in the Brazilian population. Promoting collaboration between dental and medical professionals is essential to improve the prevention and management of tooth loss, particularly among individuals with diabetes, ultimately contributing to better overall health outcomes.

Resumen
Objetivo

Analizar la asociación entre la dentición funcional y el diagnóstico previo de diabetes mellitus (DM) y/o enfermedad renal crónica (ERC) en una muestra representativa a nivel nacional de la población brasileña.

Métodos

Se realizó un análisis transversal con datos de la Encuesta Nacional de Salud de Brasil (PNS) de 2019, que representa a la población brasileña. Las asociaciones entre los diagnósticos autoinformados de DM y/o ERC y la ausencia de dentición funcional se evaluaron mediante modelos de regresión logística multinivel, ajustados por variables sociodemográficas y conductuales (edad, sexo, color de piel, ingresos, nivel educativo y consumo de tabaco).

Resultados

La dentición funcional estuvo ausente en el 9,3% de la muestra (IC95%: 8,9–9,7). Además, el 8,8% (IC95%: 8,5–9,0) informó un diagnóstico previo de DM y el 1,4% (IC95%: 1,3–1,5) de ERC. La proporción de individuos con ambos diagnósticos (DM y ERC) fue del 0,29% (IC95%: 0,27–0,32). En los modelos ajustados, la DM se asoció significativamente con la ausencia de dentición funcional (OR, 1,16; IC95%: 1,07–1,23; p<0,001). No se observaron asociaciones significativas para la ERC (OR, 1,06; IC95%: 0,89–1,26; p=0,48) ni para las personas con ambos diagnósticos (DM y ERC) (OR, 1,08; IC95%: 0,74–1,57; p=0,66).

Conclusiones

La diabetes se asocia con un mayor riesgo de pérdida de dentición funcional en la población brasileña. Fomentar la colaboración entre los profesionales de la odontología y de la medicina es fundamental para mejorar la prevención y el manejo de la pérdida dental, especialmente en las personas con diabetes, y así contribuir a mejores resultados globales en salud.
