local.description.resumoAbstractBackground/Aim: Enamel fractures are the most common type of traumatic dentalinjury (TDI) in children and adolescents. Recognizing the impact of these fractures onoral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) could contribute to the establishment oftreatment protocols. The aim of this study was to assess and quantify the impact ofenamel fractures on overall OHRQoL and domain scores in adolescents.Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted with 775 adolescentsaged 11 to 14 years in the city of Santo Ângelo in southern Brazil. Sociodemographicvariables were collected from parents/caregivers using a structured questionnaire.The adolescents answered the Child Perceptions Questionnaire (CPQ11-14 ). Physicalexaminations were performed by an examiner who had undergone training andcalibration exercises for the investigation of TDI (Andreasen criteria), dental caries(WHO criteria), and malocclusion (Dental Aesthetic Index). Data analysis involvedPoisson regression with robust variance.Results: The prevalence of TDI was 11.9% and enamel fractures accounted for 79.3%of all injuries. In the multivariate analysis, adolescents with enamel fractures had29% higher CPQ11-14 scores (worse OHRQoL) than those without TDI, even afteradjustment for sociodemographic and clinical variables (mean ratio = 1.29; 95% CI:1.09-1.53; P = .003). Enamel fractures exerted a negative impact on the functionallimitation, emotional well-being, and social well-being domains.Conclusions: Enamel fractures exert a negative impact on the OHRQoL of adoles-cents, suggesting that subjective measures should be incorporated in the evaluationof patients with this traumatic injury.
