Buccal Evaluation of Mobile Beach Workers
Study Purpose
Tumors in the oral region occur more frequently in men over 40, but can affect people of both gender and all ages, even children. The prevention of oral cancer acquires relevance in public health, particularly if the investigators consider that the preventive approach is compatible with the nature of this disease, as the mouth favors easy visual access. The objective of this study is evaluation the prevalence of oral and perioral injuries in workers who were exposed to the sun on the beaches, investigating possible associations of a sociodemographic, occupational and general health nature.
Recruitment Criteria
Healthy volunteers are participants who do not have a disease or condition, or related conditions or symptoms
An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes.
An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.
Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies.

- not wanting to participate in the evaluationTrial Details
This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries.
Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans.
Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data.
Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs.
Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use.
The sponsor is the organization or person who oversees the clinical study and is responsible for analyzing the study data.

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied.
Tumors in the oral region occur more frequently in men over 40, but can affect people of both sexes and all ages, even children. The prevention of oral cancer acquires relevance in public health, particularly if the investigators consider that the preventive approach is compatible with the nature of this disease, as the mouth favors easy visual access. The objective of this study is evaluation the prevalence of oral and perioral injuries in workers who were exposed to the sun on the beaches, investigating possible associations of a sociodemographic, occupational and general health nature. Firstly, information about the care, symptoms and forms of prevention will be explained for each worker approached, if the individual agrees to an oral examination, it can be performed by evaluating lips and peri-oral mucosa and within the needs of oral treatment, it can be referred for treatment at the clinic of the Dentistry Especialist Center of Santos/SP The street vendors who underwent the first assessment will be visited 2 more times according to the schedule, after the carnival of 2020 being the last assessment and thus being able to have data on the effectiveness of the information and past care during the visits made. As expected results, a greater awareness of the dangers of sun exposure, greater protection care and the ability to carry out self-examination at home being an information disseminator.
Arms
: beach workers
Workers must undergo clinical examinations of the upper and lower lips, performed by previously calibrated researchers, through semi-technical inspection and palpation maneuvers, in order to identify injuries. Photo cameras can be used to improve the visibility of the lips using the image enhancement feature, to confirm the diagnosis. The clinical examination will include: dryness, atrophy, scaly lesions, lip swelling, erythema, ulcerations, cloudy demarcations between the vermilion of the lip and skin, demarcated folds along the lip, white spots or plaques, crusts, stained or pale areas. They should be evaluated with the application of a previously validated questionnaire containing information related to personal data, information on occupation and health was completed according to the responses of the volunteers. The OHIP-14 quality of life questionnaire will be applied together
Interventions
Other: - Oral clinical exam
Detailed anamnesis, with information regarding the time of sun exposure, protection measures, medical history and application of questionnaires will be carried out. Dental dental and tissue examination should be performed
