Abstract

To evaluate the association between socioeconomic and oral health-related variables in the social support perceived by pregnant women. This cross-sectional study included a sample obtained from clusters of pregnant women who attended public health services in southern Brazil. The pregnant women answered questionnaires about demographic, socioeconomic, and oral health characteristics. Social support was assessed using the Medical Outcomes Study scale. Clinical variables included untreated dental caries and gingival bleeding. Multilevel Poisson regression analysis was used to assess the influence of predictors on social support. The sample consisted of 254 pregnant women. Those with poorer self-perceived oral health, extensive levels of gingival bleeding, and lower socioeconomic status, presented poor social support. Socioeconomic factors and factors related to oral health had an impact on the social support perceived by pregnant women.
