ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVES:
To determine the dental status and salivary characteristics and to analyse the correlation between creatinine clearance with DMFT index and salivary flow rate in Vietnamese patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD).METHODS:
This study was conducted on 111 CKD and 109 non-CKD patients. The socio-demographic characteristics associated with dental habits and xerostomia status were recorded from a self-administered questionnaire. Dental status (DT, MT, FT) and salivary characteristics (flow rate; pH; buffering capacity; urea and creatinine concentrations) were examined. The multivariate regression models were used to assess the correlation of creatinine clearance with DMFT index and salivary flow rate with adjustment for confounders.RESULTS:
Patients with CKD made MT and DMFT indices significantly higher than non-CKD subjects. Chronic kidney disease patients had reduced salivary flow rate; but higher xerostomia level, salivary pH and buffering capacity than those in non-CKD subjects. Results of multivariate regression models showed that with lower creatinine clearance 1 mL/min, DMF index was higher 0.02 teeth, and salivary flow rate lower 0.003 mL/min.CONCLUSIONS:
There were no differences in dental status between patients with CKD and those without CKD, except that poor renal function is directly related with a higher DMFT index and lower salivary flow rate. Dental professionals should pay greater attention to oral problems during the progression of CKD to prevent deterioration of oral health.Palavras-chave
