Abstract

OBJECTIVES

To describe life-style correlates of tooth loss in a representative rural American population.

METHODS

Information on tooth loss as well as past medical history and life-style factors was obtained in a well-defined cohort of 2,764 persons 53-96 years of age in Beaver Dam, WI (1998-2000).

RESULTS

There were 1,992 (68.2%) persons missing some and 447 (15.3%) missing all of their teeth. In univariable analyses, age, cigarette smoking, heavy drinking, education, multivitamin use, and diabetes status were associated with tooth loss. Tooth loss was associated with poorer self-rated health and with difficulty eating solid food and inability to enjoy some food. In multivariable models age, education, smoking, heavy drinking, and diabetes were significantly associated with tooth loss.

CONCLUSIONS

Tooth loss is common in older persons and is associated with many risk factors including education, smoking, and heavy drinking. It is possible that modifying these may influence risk of tooth loss.

摘要

目的

描述美国有代表性农村人口中牙齿缺失与生活方式的相关性。

方法

在威斯康星州比弗代尔姆市（1998 - 2000年）对2764名年龄在53 - 96岁的人群组成的明确队列中，获取了牙齿缺失以及既往病史和生活方式因素的信息。

结果

有1992人（68.2%）牙齿部分缺失，447人（15.3%）牙齿全部缺失。在单变量分析中，年龄、吸烟、大量饮酒、教育程度、多种维生素使用情况和糖尿病状态与牙齿缺失有关。牙齿缺失与自我健康评价较差、进食固体食物困难以及无法享用某些食物有关。在多变量模型中，年龄、教育程度、吸烟、大量饮酒和糖尿病与牙齿缺失显著相关。
