description This study aimed to assess dental caries status and associated factors in Uruguayan adults and elders using data from the first Uruguayan National Oral Health Survey. Data were representative of the country as a whole. Sociodemographic information was collected with a closed questionnaire. Dental caries was assessed by clinical examination using the DMFT index. The final sample consisted of 769 participants. Mean DMFT was 15.20 and 24.12 for the 35-44 and 65-74-year age groups, respectively. Mean number of decayed teeth was 1.70 in adults and 0.66 in elders. Multivariate analyses showed higher prevalence of dental caries associated with age 65-74 years, low socioeconomic status, use of public dental services, presence of gingivitis; for decayed teeth, age 35-44 years, low socioeconomic status, use of public dental services, infrequent tooth brushing, need for oral health care, and presence of root caries showed higher severity. Uruguayan adults and elders from disadvantaged backgrounds concentrated a heavier burden of dental caries.

Los datos fueron representativos del país. Las condiciones socioeconómicas fueron evaluadas por cuestionarios. La caries dental fue evaluada por examen clínico, mediante el índice CPO-D. La muestra final evaluada fue de 769 personas. El CPO-D medio fue de 15,20 y 24,12 para los tramos de 35-44 años y de 65-74 años, respectivamente. La media de dientes cariados fue 1,70 entre los adultos y 0,66 entre los adultos mayores. Análisis multivariables mostraron una mayor severidad de caries: el tramo de 65-74 años, el bajo nivel socioeconómico, usuarios del servicio público de salud oral, y la presencia de sangrado gingival; mientras para caries sin tratar: el tramo de 35-44 años, el bajo nivel socioeconómico, el uso del servicio público de salud oral, el cepillado menor a dos veces al día, la necesidad auto-reportada para tratamiento dental y la presencia de caries radicular estuvieron asociadas. Adultos y adultos mayores uruguayos de bajo nivel socioeconómico concentran mayor carga de caries dental.Álvarez Loureiro Licet, Facultad de Odontología, Universidad de la República, Montevideo, Uruguay.Liberman Perlmuter Judith, Facultad de Odontología, Universidad de la República, Montevideo, Uruguay.Abreu Soledad, Facultad de Odontología, Universidad de la República, Montevideo, Uruguay.Mangarelli García Carolina, Facultad de Odontología, Universidad de la República, Montevideo, Uruguay.Correa Marcos Britto, Programa de Pósgraduação em Odontologia, Universidade Federal de Pelotas, Pelotas,Demarco Flavio Fernando, Programa de Pósgraduação em Odontologia, Universidade Federal de Pelotas, Pelotas.
