| Abstract | Background Oral health is recognized as integral to general health and impaired dentition status may affect physical performance among older adults. This study evaluated the longitudinal association between clinical and self-reported oral health measures and physical performance (outcome) in Brazilian older adults. Methods This was a longitudinal study that used data from the second (year 2006), third (year 2010) and fourth (year 2015) waves of the Health Well-being and Aging Study conducted in Brazil. Physical performance, evaluated using the Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB), was the dependent variable. Independent variables of interest were the number of teeth, presence of periodontal pocket, use of dental prostheses, and poor perceived oral health. The association between oral health measures and physical function was analyzed using generalized estimating equations with an ordinal regression model. Results In the total sample, every additional tooth was associated with a greater chance of achieving a higher score on the SPPB test. Individuals wearing dental prostheses had higher chances of having higher scores than those not wearing them. In the analyses for the dentate sample, the presence of a periodontal pocket was not associated with SPPB and the increase in the number of teeth increased the chance of achieving a higher score. Conclusion A greater number of teeth, and using dentures, were associated with higher physical performance. Periodontal disease was not associated with the outcome. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
