Oral health-related quality of life and associated factors among 12-year-old children in Guizhou
Objective To evaluate the status of oral health-related quality of life and associated factors of 12-year-old children in Guizhou Province,so as to provide reference for health education and prevention of oral diseases in school-age children.Methods A total of 1 777 children aged 12 in Guizhou Province were recruited by a multi-stage stratified sampling method.Oral examination was performed according to WHO oral health examination criteria,and child oral health-related quality of life was assessed using Child-Oral Impact on Daily Performance(Child-OIDP).Chi-square test,non-parametric test and binary Logistic regression model were used to analyze the associated factors.Results Totally 73.3％(1 303/1 707)children showed at least one impact on their oral health in the last 6 months,with diet being the most affected(52.6％)and schooling being the least affected(16.0％).Living in rural areas(OR=0.483,95％CI:0.322-0.723)was a protective factor for the impact on oral health-related quality of life(P＜0.001).Being the second-class economic tier(OR=1.926,95％CI:1.404-2.642)and third-class economic tier(OR=5.347,95％CI:3.295-8.677),consuming sweet food 2-6 times per week(OR=1.518,95％CI:1.143-2.015)and once or more daily(OR=1.433,95％CI:1.098-1.871),having good oral health knowledge(OR=1.693,95％CI:1.145-2.502),having moderate oral health attitude(OR=1.830,95％CI:1.143-2.928)and positive oral health attitude(OR=2.121,95％CI:1.353-3.324)were positively associated with the impact on oral health-related quality of life(P＜0.05).Conclusion The daily life of 12-year-old children in Guizhou Province is significantly affected by oral health conditions,albeit to a relatively mild extent.
