RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to identify the prevalence of and independent risk factors for long-term effects of childhood cancer treatment on the dentition and oral health in childhood cancer survivors (CCSs). METHODS: This cross-sectional study is part of the Dutch Childhood Cancer Survivor Study (DCCSS) LATER 2. CCSs were diagnosed with cancer between 1963 and 2001. This study focuses on survey data of 154 CCSs on whom information about their oral health was received from their dentists (71.3%). Descriptive statistics and univariable and multivariable Poisson regression analyses were performed to determine the association between treatment characteristics and oral health data. RESULTS: Of the study group, 36.3% had at least one DDD. The most prevalent DDDs were short-root anomaly (14.6%), agenesis (14.3%), and microdontia (13.6%). Risk factors for at least one DDD were younger age at diagnosis (<3 years) and dose-dependent alkylating agent therapy. CONCLUSIONS: This study provides more insight into risk factors for oral health problems in Dutch CCSs. This information is essential in order to improve early detection, prevention, dental care, and quality of life. Further studies are needed in order to better define dose-related radiotherapy exposure of the developing teeth in correlation with oral health problems.

RESUMO

Patients with hematologic cancers often develop acute and chronic oral complications from their disease and its treatment. These problems could change patients' oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) negatively. Quality of life (QoL) has become an increasingly important outcome measure in oncology. This systematic literature review evaluates the impact of hematological malignancies and their treatment on OHRQoL as assessed by the Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP-14) questionnaire. Medline through Pubmed and Web of Science were searched through April 2017. Two randomized controlled trials, one cohort study, one cross-sectional study, and one case-control study were included. Heterogeneity across the included studies did not allow for meta-analysis. OHIP-14 domains that were frequently given the highest scores were functional limitation (67%), physical pain (50%), physical disability (50%), and psychological discomfort (33%). The domains that were frequently given the lowest scores were social handicap (100%), social disability (100%), and psychological disability (67%). Insufficient evidence is available to draw any robust conclusions regarding OHRQoL assessed by the OHIP-14 in individuals with hematological malignancies. However, functional limitations because of problems with oral mucosal tissues, the dentition, or dentures, seem to have a larger negative impact on the OHRQoL than social aspects associated with oral health problems. Well-designed larger studies are required to determine effects of hematological malignancies as well as acute and long-term effects of their treatment on patients' OHRQoL.
