RESUMO
OBJECTIVES: The COHQoL is a set of questionnaires used to evaluate the impact of oral health on children's quality of life. Although the CPQ8-10 and the P-CPQ have been translated and validated in French, the CPQ11-14 14 has not yet been validated. The aim was to develop a French version of the CPQ11-14 16-items. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The French version of CPQ11-14 was obtained by a forward-backward translation process and pretested. The final version was tested on children aged 11-14 and divided into three groups: children with orofacial clefts, children with rare dental diseases other than clefts, and children without anomalies. We conducted a cross-sectional study and evaluated the reliability with test-retest and internal consistency, and the questionnaire validity with construct validity and discriminant validity. We performed an Exploratory Factory Analysis (EFA). RESULTS: 187 children tested the questionnaire. The ICC of the test-retest was 0.76 and the Cronbach's alpha was 0.77. The correlation between the CPQ11-14 and self-assessment of oral health and general well-being was > 0.2. Patients with orofacial clefts and rare diseases had significantly higher scores for overall short-form CPQ11-14. The EFA revealed six factors. CONCLUSION: The French CPQ11-14 is valid to assess the impact of oral health on children's quality of life. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: The translation of this questionnaire into French will enable us to assess the impact of oral health on the quality of life of adolescents. This questionnaire complements the 8-10 years version of the CPQ, as well as the parental version that can be used in conjunction with the questionnaire.

PURPOSE: There is limited knowledge about oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) in children with celiac disease (CD). This study aimed to assess OHRQoL in children with CD compared to healthy controls. METHODS: This case-control study included children with CD and healthy controls. Three scales were used to assess OHRQoL in different age groups: 6-7 years, 8-10 years, and 11-14 years. The OHRQoL scores were compared between cases and controls to examine the possible associations between OHRQoL and demographics, socioeconomic status, and oral health. RESULTS: Overall, 104 children with CD and 104 healthy children (controls) were included. The mean age was 10.67 ± 2.39 years in CD patients and 10.69 ± 2.36 in controls (P = 0.971). Male and female children constituted 50% of each group. Children with CD had significantly higher OHRQoL scores than controls (P = 0.003). Low education levels of parents of children with CD and a higher number of siblings in controls were associated with high OHRQoL scores (P = 0.002, P < 0.020, and P = 0.010, respectively). Recurrent aphthous stomatitis (RAS) increased the OHRQoL scores by 7.5 on average (P = 0.016). CONCLUSION: Children with CD had poor OHRQoL compared with healthy controls. Poor OHRQoL in children with CD was associated with RAS and with lower parental income and education. RAS was an independent predictor of poor OHRQoL in children with CD.

BACKGROUND: Oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) has been used to describe the consequences of oral health conditions and treatments in children. A better understanding of OHRQoL and its relationship with dental fear and previous dental experience is necessary to improve children's oral health status. The aim of this study was to investigate the association of dental history and experience with dental fear and the OHRQoL of children aged 11 to 14 years. METHODS: A cross-sectional study was conducted using a multi-stage stratified sample of 1,312 middle school children. Information regarding OHRQoL was collected from the children using the Child Perceptions Questionnaire (CPQ11-14), and information regarding dental fear was collected using the Children's Fear Survey Schedule-Dental Subscale (CFSS-DS). Information on past dental experiences and sociodemographic data were collected from the parents using self-administered questionnaires. Dental examinations were performed to assess caries experience. RESULTS: The multivariable model indicated that dental fear was the strongest predictor of OHRQoL as the fearful children had on average CPQ11-14 scores that were 10 units higher than those of the non-fearful children. Regarding past dental experience, pain as the reason for the most recent dental visit was associated with poor OHRQoL, while receiving a filling during the previous dental visits was significantly associated with better OHRQoL. In addition, a larger number of siblings, a lower family income, a lower paternal education level, health problems and prior hospitalization were significantly associated with poor OHRQoL. CONCLUSION: This study identified that dental fear and some factors related to previous dental experience are associated with OHRQoL. In dental practice, children with dental fear should be identified, guided and treated early to avoid deterioration of their OHRQoL.

OBJECTIVE: This study investigates the impact of dental fluorosis on the oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) among 11- to 14-year-old school children in endemic fluoride areas of Haryana (India). MATERIALS AND METHODS: A cross-sectional survey was conducted among 2,200 school children in endemic fluoride areas of Haryana. Using cluster random sampling, three districts out of 14 endemic fluoride districts were selected, and children 11-14 years of age were examined. A child perception questionnaire (CPQ11-14 ) (Hindi version) evaluated the impact of dental fluorosis on OHRQoL. The Thylstrup-Fejerskov index (TFI) was used for assessing dental fluorosis. The data were analysed using SPSS version 18, and non-parametric tests were used to assess the significance. The regression analysis was used to determine the effect of change in CPQ scores with dental fluorosis at P < 0.05. RESULTS: The study participants included 45.3% males and 54.7% females among which mild to moderate level of dental fluorosis was identified with mean mean TFI Scores being 3.19 ± 1.55. Children without dental fluorosis had 1.17 times more odd of percieving their oral health as excellent/good when compared to children with dental fluorosis (P < 0.05). Study subjects with dental fluorosis did not have higher mean CPQ11-14 domain and total scores when compared with subjects without dental fluorosis. CONCLUSION: It can be concluded that mild dental fluorosis did not affect the OHRQoL of the children in the endemic fluoride areas of Haryana in India.

OBJECTIVES: The Child Perceptions Questionnaire 11-14 (CPQ11-14) is the most common and effective indicator of paediatric oral health-related quality of life. The aim of this review was to verify if CPQ11-14 can be considered a valid instrument for assessing the impact of oral health on the quality of life of adolescents for the paediatric population aged between 11 and 14 years old and which dental conditions mainly affect it. STUDY DESIGN: A literature research from Pubmed Medline database was adopted to identify the eligible studies among the published articles related to CPQ 11-14 using keyword search strategy. From 170 initial articles, a total of 128 articles were included for the full text reading. RESULTS: Conditions that mainly interest the oral health-related quality of life are untreated dental caries, dental trauma, increased dental protrusion, wearing orthodontic appliances, and severe periodontal disease. CONCLUSION: CPQ 11-14 seems to be a solid and valid indicator to measure oral health-related quality of life, because it has been widely tested and validated in several states including developed, developing and underdeveloped countries.

This study aimed to determine the impact of dental caries in terms of Oral Health-Related Quality of Life (OHRQoL) for Cambodian children. The Child Perceptions Questionnaires (CPQ) were cross-culturally adapted and validated for the Cambodian population using a sample of 430 Cambodian children. The participants had a high caries burden, with a mean number of decayed-missing-and-filled deciduous tooth surfaces (dmfs) of 8.8 (SD = 11.1) and a mean DMFS of 3.7 (SD = 5.5) for the permanent dentition. Two in 5 children had at least one pulpally involved tooth. There was a significant difference in mean CPQ8-10 and CPQ11-14 scores by caries experience and by global item response for the respective age-groups, with those in the more severe caries categories scoring higher. Similar gradients were apparent with the CPQ11-14 in the 8- to 10-year age-group. The differences in OHRQoL scores by caries experience demonstrate the construct validity of the CPQ11-14 for the 8- to 14-year age-group.
