Oral health status and influencing factors among 12-year-old children in Guang'an City in 2022
Objective To investigate the dental caries status and influencing factors of 12-year-old children in Guang'an City,and to provide basic data and scientific basis for children's oral health care in Guang'an City.Methods In 2022,two cities and two rural areas were selected by using the stratified cluster sampling method in Guang'an City,and 1054 students in 15 schools were surveyed and orally examined.Chi-square test was used for univariate analysis of the influencing factors of oral caries rate in children,and binary Logostic regression was used for multivariate analysis,and the significance level was set to 0.05 unless a otherwise specified.Results In 2022,a total of 1054 children aged 12 years in Guang'an were surveyed.Overall,465 children had caries,the caries rate was 44.1％,and caries average was 1.15.The prevalence of caries in urban children was 51.27％(364/710),which was higher than that in rural children(29.36％,101/344),with statistically significant difference(x2=45.11,P＜0.01).The mean caries of urban children was 1.41 higher than that of rural children(1.41 vs.0.59,t=-7.44,P＜0.01).Overall,138 children had gum bleeding,the detection rate of gingival bleeding was 13％(138/1 054),223 children had tartar,the detection rate of tartar was 21.11％(223/1 054),the detection rate of gingival bleeding(x2=16.80,P＜0.01)and calculus(x2=56.62,P＜0.01)in urban children was slightly higher than that in rural children.Logistic regression analysis showed parents lived with their children for a long time(OR=2.48,95％CI:1.32-4.68,P=0.01),bleeding gums(OR=6.82,95％CI:2.73-17.03,P＜0.01),and dental development(OR=12.58,95％CI:3.42-46.19,P＜0.01)were the influencing factors of caries in rural children,and the frequency of snacking(OR=1.98,95％CI:1.25-3.13,P=0.01),and lived in school(OR=0.62,95％CI:0.39-0.98,P=0.04)were the influencing factors of caries in urban children.Conclusions The overall caries rate of 12-year-old children is higher in Guang'an City.The detection rate of gum bleeding and tartar is low.Compared with rural children,the oral condition of urban children is more serious.The prevention and prevention of oral diseases in children should be strengthened according to the different influencing factors of urban and rural children.
