Association between self-reported oral health and clinical examination outcomes among older adults
摘要
Abstract
Objective To examine the association between self-reported oral health status and clinical examination outcomes among older adults in three provinces,northeastern region of China.Methods Data were drawn from an epidemiological study that included both clinical oral health examinations and survey questions.A total of 1084 participants(age 65-75)were included in the analyses.Self-reported oral health status included the condition of teeth,gum,and oral hygiene status which was measured separately by a 3-point Likert scale (poor,fair,and good).Clinical status was measured including the number of decayed teeth (DT),missing teeth (MT),bleeding on probing,depth of pocket,and attachment loss.Multinomial logistic regressions were used to examine the association adjusting for clinical examination outcomes and self-reported oral health status.Results After adjusting for covariates,a higher number of DT and MT were significantly correlated with poorer self-reported oral health status.Similarly,good gum status and oral hygiene status was associated with less number of bleeding on probing.Conclusion A significant association was found between self-reported oral health conditions and clinical outcomes from the examination.This study suggests that self-reported measures are good indicators for overall oral health status.It is possible that self-reported measures could be used as a screening measure of oral health status among Chinese older adults.关键词
