- W813595815 abstract "INTRODUCTIONTooth loss is a unique problem that can lead to different functional problems and a significant reduction of quality of life. The influence of oral cavity status on the qual-ity of life (OHIP) is crucial for testing and evaluating comprehensive measures of dysfunction, inconvenience and disability resulting from oral status.1 Self-esteem is one of the most important aspects of self-image and has a great influence on cognition, motivation, emotion and behavior. It can be simply defined as a sense of worth and evaluative attitude that an individual has about himself. This position represents the degree of belief in their own ability, importance, performance or value.2 A significant impact of self-esteem on the result of treatment is recognized in medicine.3 Several studies were conducted4 to explore the impact of self-esteem on quality of life, but no study thus far has associated self-esteem with the status of the oral cavity. Hygiene is the most important factor in prevention of oral diseases. Oral hygiene procedures include removal of dental plaque, because the role of plaque in pathogenesis of dental caries or periodontal disease has been known for years.5 Today, brushing teeth is the most common method of removing plaque. The effectiveness of this method depends on how often and in which manner we brush our teeth, which toothpaste we use, the kind of toothbrush and additional methods used in daily oral hygiene (mouthwash liquid, use of dental floss). Condition of the oral cavity and teeth is an indicator of the general health status of the elderly.6 Risk factors for the development of caries are the same for people of all ages, but their frequency increases with age. The elderly have difficulty maintaining oral hygiene due to problems with vision or because of decrease in manual dexterity, thereby increasing the quantity of microorganisms in plaque and saliva. Decreased production of saliva also leads to increased amounts of cariogenic flora. Dental caries and periodontal disease are directly associated with tooth loss, although the loss of teeth can be associated with systemic diseases such as osteoporosis or diabetes. Dental fear can be a significant limiting factor in maintaining oral health.7 As far as modern medicine is concerned, there is an increasingly popular concept that a lesion, for instance, is considered not only locally, but from the standpoint of the whole organism. Dentists should be aware of all the important issues, not only physically, but also mentally. Throughout life certain characteristics and mental traits emerge that should be taken into consideration on behalf of the dentist. Patients become resigned, very involved in physical and emotional indulgence, unwilling to engage with difficulties of everyday life. They exhibit little to no interest in oral health and hygiene, and therefore towards dental procedures. In many patients, the progressive loss of teeth causes multiple issues, many suffer from constant worry and fear about the physiognomic and aesthetic consequences of this loss.8 Such patients are not uncommon, may become depressed as a result and even have suicidal thoughts.The aim of this study was to investigate whether there was a difference in self-esteem between patients addicted to alcohol and the control group, what was the impact of oral health on the social aspect of life and quality of life, whether treated alcoholics were satisfied with the appearance of their teeth and how much attention was dedicated to oral hygiene and whether there was any correlation between these key variables.SUBJECT AND METHODSThe study included 67 participants, seven of which were excluded due to incomplete participation in all segments of the study. Therefore, 60 subjects were taken into consideration. Thirty subjects (age range 26-65 years), who were in treatment at the Department of Alcoholism in University Hospital Sestre milosrdnice in Zagreb. 73.33% of the subjects of the experimental group were male and 26. …" @default.
