Summary

Caries and periodontal disease are chronic diseases of the oral cavity. The incidence of caries and periodontal disease can vary depending on the position of the third molar, The aim of this study was to verify possible associations between oral health-related quality of life (QoL), periodontal disease, caries lesions and the position of the lower third molar.

Conditions

  • Caries
  • Periodontal Diseases

Interventions

OTHER

carie

Caries lesions were assessed by visual tactile examination and periodontal disease through two probing sites around third molar, considering the presence of periodontal pathology when at least one periodontal probing depth was greater than 4 mm, and both were evaluated by radiograph diagnostic methods. The assessment of oral health related quality of life by Oral Health impact Profile questionary (OHIP-14), applied as an interview. The evaluation of the position of the third molars was made by clinical and panoramic radiographs according to the classification of Pell and Gregory and Winter
