About this study

Official title: Oral Quality of Life and Food Intake Survey

The present study was undertaken in order to describe the clinical profiles of food selective behavior in 35-65 years dental and non-dental populations.

Read the detailed description

The study population included 125 participants, recruited within the general population and in a dental clinic: -Non-dental group included 62 non-seeking dental treatment subjects, aged 30-65 years, previously recruited during the OralPom survey. -Dental group included 63 patients recruited from September 2019 to December 2020 among patients seeking/pending dental treatment within the university dental clinic of the Rothschild hospital (AP-HP Sorbonne University, Paris, France).

Both groups took part in an individual session with a dental practitioner during which food selectivity, medical history, and oral health status were assessed.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Clinical oral examinationDiagnostic test

    Clinical oral examinations are conducted by a dental practitioner. They point out the number of teeth (ranging from 0 to 32), the number of occlusal functional units (OFU, ranging from 0 to 10, with one unit considered as a pair of antagonist premolars and molars that had at least one contact area during maximum intercuspal relationships, evaluated by asking the participants to clench on a 200 µm thick articulating paper, the presence of dental prostheses (fixed prosthesis and removable denture), the number of denture worn during meals (removable partial or complete denture, either maxillary or mandibular, or both, with number ranging from 0 to 2), the number of decayed, missing, filled teeth (DMFT index, based on 28 teeth), and the Russel's periodontal index which is presently preferred to the Community (namely CPITN) because it takes tooth mobility into account.

  • Food behaviorDiagnostic test

    Food selective behavior is assessed using a food selectivity questionnaire previously developed for French adults 34. Participants will be interviewed and asked to check each food item they do not eat among a list of 71 familiar products which includes raw foods and dishes from the following categories: starters, meat, fish, egg, garnish, dairy products, desserts, bread, and beverages. A food selectivity score corresponding to the total number of avoided foods will be assessed for each participant. For each avoided food, participants explain why they do not eat it among reasons including "I don't know it", "I dislike it", "I suffer from chewing or swallowing it (oral discomfort)", "I experience difficulties digesting the food", "This food is forbidden for medical reason", and "This food is forbidden for ethical or religious reasons".

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Non-dental group62 non-seeking dental treatment subjects, aged 30-65 years, previously recruited within the general population from december 2017 to january 2018. Declared painful conditions including temporo-mandibular disorder, cephalalgia, oral or dental pain were initially considered as excluding conditions. Exclusion criteria also included diagnosis of acute orofacial disease (i.e. rhinitis) or sensory trouble (i.e. anosmia, dysgeusia) neither at the time of the experiment nor in the recent past, pregnancy, head and neck irradiation, eating disorders, enteral or parenteral feeding, and cognitive impairment or impaired communication. They took part in an individual session with a dental practitioner of about 30-min during which food selectivity, medical history, and oral health status were assessed.
Receives: Diagnostic Test: Clinical oral examination; Diagnostic Test: Food behavior
Dental group63 patients recruited from September 2019 to December 2020 among patients seeking/pending dental treatment within the university dental clinic of the Rothschild hospital (AP-HP Sorbonne University, Paris, France). Inclusion criteria were: age between 35 and 65 years, literate French speakers, willing and able to complete the survey in a single setting. Patients suffering from cognitive impairment or impaired communication were excluded. They took part in an individual session with a dental practitioner of about 30-min during which food selectivity, medical history, and oral health status were assessed.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Food selectivity score

    The food selectivity score measures the number of avoided foods. The score ranges from 0 to 71, 0 meaning no food selectivity and 71 meaning high food selectivity.

    Measured: During clinical examination session (1 hour) at baseline

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Oral Disease and Food Selection, run by Hôpital Rothschild at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Nov 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Food selectivity score (time frame: During clinical examination session (1 hour) at baseline). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 20 Nov 2023.
