Abstract
Objective: The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between perceived oral health and oral health status.
Methods: The oral examination and survey data of 219 subjects over 40 years of age were analyzed. All individuals were interviewed by self-reporting questionnaire that focused on previous diseases, vascular risk factors (hypertension, diabetic mellitus, cardiac disease), smoking and drinking habits, social history, BMI, the frequency of daily tooth brushing and the presence of regular dental visits. Dental survey was conducted in relations to the number of teeth, DMFT index, and the pocket depth.
Results: 1. Better perceived oral health status was likely to rate their periodontal conditions as good with more teeth remaining and less dental caries. 2. With increasing DMFT index, perceived oral health and periodontal conditions were rated poorly with a severe dry mouth experience. 3. With high CPITN index, perceived periodontal conditions were rated poorly with less number of teeth remaining and a severe dry mouth condition. 4. In a multivariate analysis adjusted for socioeconomic status, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, frequency of daily tooth brushing and regular dental visits, the better perceived oral health status is, the lower DMFT index is.
Conclusion: Self-rated oral health is a simple measure and reflects not only the objective oral status but also the socioeconomic status and the psychological effects of oral health. Thus, we should actively use the perceived oral health criteria to promote the nation's oral health.
