Resumo: Oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) instruments have being widely used in oral health studies. However, most OHRQoL measures are designed to assess the adult population, mainly due to the difficulties for developing such measures for children and their validation. The aim of this review was to describe the impact of oral health on children’s quality of life and its importance for this specific age group. The use of indicators of OHRQoL in children is necessary since they are based on self-perception and oral health impact, which is essential for planning of actions for health promotion considering biological and psychosocial aspects. It is also suggested the need of studies using quali-quantitative methods as an alternative approach to the use of OHRQoL instruments in children. Key words: Oral health; child health; quality of life

Key words: Oral health; child health; quality of lifeO uso de instrumentos que relacionam saúde bucal com a qualidade de vida tem sido freqüente em pesquisas odontológicas. Porém, a maioria desses estudos refere-se à população adulta, principalmente devido às dificuldades de desenvolvimento e validação dessas medidas para a população infantil. O objetivo deste trabalho é descrever, através de uma revisão na literatura, o impacto das doenças bucais na qualidade de vida de crianças e a importância dos métodos de mensuração para as mesmas. Observou-se que a utilização de indicadores que associam saúde bucal e qualidade de vida em crianças é fundamental, uma vez que são baseados na auto-percepção e no impacto odontológico e possibilitam condições para o planejamento de ações para promoção de saúde considerando aspectos biológicos e psicossociais. Também pôde-se perceber a necessidade de mais estudos de desenho quanti-qualitativo como uma alternativa complementar à utilização destes indicadores na população infantil.
