ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE:

To perform a cost-effectiveness analysis of rehabilitation interventions for management of posterior teeth (molar) with extensive coronary destruction.

METHODOLOGY:

An economic model by Markov simulated a hypothetical 10-year cohort with 1,000 patients requiring treatment for a molar tooth with pulp necrosis and extensive coronary destruction. This study adopted the perspective of a local manager from Specialized Center in Dentistry, based on the transfer from the Ministry of Health. Treatments were proposed Tooth Extraction + Removable Partial Denture (TE+RPD); Root Canal Treatment + Intra-Radicular Restoration + Single Crown (RCT+RIR+SC); and Tooth Extraction + Dental Implant + Single Crown (TE+DI+SC). The costs were obtained from the SUS Integrated System of Procedures, Medicines and orthoses; prostheses and special materials table management (SIGTAP). Failure and survival rates were obtained from systematic reviews. The variable "years of survival" was an outcome of effectiveness. The probabilistic simulation considered the confidence interval of 95%, variation of parameters by 5% and annual discount rate of 5%.

RESULTS:

TE+RPD intervention presented lower cost and effectiveness. The incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER) of RCT+IRR+SC and TE+DI+SC interventions compared to TE+RPD were $13.06 and $9.92 per year of survival. Compared to RCT+IRR+SC, the TE+DI+SC intervention had an ICER=$26.90 per year of survival. The acceptability curve indicates that the choice of intervention depends on the willingness to pay.

CONCLUSION:

The RCT+IRR+SC intervention presented a balance of cost-effectiveness. Rehabilitation with implants can be considered in view of the higher expectation of longevity and, especially, greater willingness to pay.
