Abstract

Background & objectives: Oral health is an indicator of the whole body that affects individuals' mental and functional aspects. Deterioration of oral health is one of the most critical challenges facing health policies, and improving social factors is one of the ways to overcome this problem. This study aimed to investigate the socioeconomic factors affecting DMFT in adults in Shahdiyeh in a cohort study in 1395. Methods: This study was based on the cohort protocol of Shahedieh Yazd and was performed on adults aged 35-70 years. Socioeconomic variables were extracted from the relevant questionnaire, and their relationship with the DMFT index was examined. Results: The mean age is 48.48. The average DMFT is 19.77, and the marital status is not related to the DMFT index, but there is a significant relationship with the number of decayed teeth. The lowest DMFT index is in the group with a Ph.D. level. Brushing has a meaningful and direct association with the DMFT index. The highest average number of restored teeth was found in the group with high salt intake, and the DMFT index has a significant relationship with the frequency of dental floss. Conclusion:

2016年伊朗成年人DMFT指数的社会预测因素:一项横断面研究

背景与目的:口腔健康是影响个体心理和功能方面的全身指标。口腔健康恶化是卫生政策面临的最严峻挑战之一，改善社会因素是克服这一问题的途径之一。本研究旨在通过1395年的一项队列研究，调查影响Shahdiyeh成人DMFT的社会经济因素。方法:本研究基于Shahedieh Yazd的队列方案，在35-70岁的成年人中进行。从相关问卷中提取社会经济变量，考察其与DMFT指数的关系。结果:平均年龄48.48岁。DMFT平均为19.77，婚姻状况与DMFT指数无关，但与蛀牙数有显著关系。DMFT指数最低的是拥有博士学位的群体。刷牙与DMFT指数有直接而有意义的联系。高盐摄取量组平均修复牙数最高，DMFT指数与使用牙线频率有显著关系。结论:
