Summary

Background:

A person s dental health depends on many factors. Some are social, economic, or behavioral. Some are environmental. People with Sj(SqrRoot)(Delta)gren s Syndrome have a change in the amount and quality of saliva. This may affect dental health. Researchers want to study the dental health needs of people with this and other salivary gland problems. They will compare these findings with healthy volunteers. This will help them improve health care for these groups of people.

Objectives:

To study dental health needs of people with salivary gland problems and healthy volunteers. To study the disparities in dental health between these groups.

Eligibility:

Adults 18 and older who were in a Sj(SqrRoot)(Delta)gren s Syndrome study

Healthy volunteers the same age

Design:

Participants will take an online survey. It should take less than 30 minutes. They can skip any questions.

They will be asked about dental health, general health, and well-being.

Information in the survey will be kept secure.
