儿童患龋情况与父母口腔保健意识的相关性调查

Survey on Correlation between the Children Caries and Oral Health Awareness of Parents

目的总结儿童龋齿情况与家长口腔保健意识的相关性,以更好的保护儿童牙齿健康,提高家长对儿童牙齿保健意识。方法在社区幼儿园以及小学中选择年龄在3~8岁的儿童,从中抽取950名儿童进行口腔检查,并对其家长进行口腔问卷调查,问卷调查内容包括家长是否重视口腔健康、家长的口腔卫生知识、卫生习惯等。结果口腔检查显示950名参与调查的儿童中有433人患龋,患龋率为45.58%,龋均为3.11。从调查问卷结果分析,家长重视口腔健康、了解正确的刷牙方法、每天早晚坚持刷牙、不允许儿童睡前吃零食以及喝饮料等儿童的龋齿发生几率低于牙齿保健意识不强的家长（P〈0.05）。结论家长的口腔保健意识对儿童患龋率有一定影响,为了降低儿童龋齿的发生几率需要家长本身具备一定的口腔保健意识。
