Many authors consider oral hygiene an important factor in the etiology and pathogenesis of oral cavity cancer. The aim of the present study was to establish the role of poor oral hygiene in the development of malignant lesions in the oral cavity. One hundred and three patients were interviewed. Questions, regarding oral hygiene were included in the interview. Results showed that 53,80% of urban residents brush their teeth twice daily whereas 65,52% of rural residents brush their teeth irregularly - p<0,001 (chi(2)=23,67). 46,88% of women clean their teeth twice daily. 46,94% of men do not maintain adequate oral hygiene - p<0,05 (chi(2)= 9,21). Regarding the brush, it was found out that 56,00% of females use a hard bristle toothbrush, the same refers to 28,04% of men - p<0,05 (chi(2)= 4,15). Hard bristle toothbrush was used by 48,88% of urban residents and 9,09% of rural residents - p<0,05 (chi(2)= 5,78). People up to 30 years of age use hard bristle toothbrush most often -39,13% - p<0,01 (chi(2)=12,26). The accumulated evidence provides further explanation why oral cavity cancer is more frequent in men, rural residents and in the elderly. Oral hygiene is a factor in the development of oral cavity cancer.
许多作者认为口腔卫生是口腔癌病因和发病机制中的一个重要因素。本研究的目的是确定口腔卫生不良在口腔恶性病变发展中的作用。对103名患者进行了访谈。访谈中包含了关于口腔卫生的问题。结果显示，53.80%的城市居民每天刷牙两次，而65.52%的农村居民刷牙不规律——p<0.001（卡方=23.67）。46.88%的女性每天刷牙两次。46.94%的男性没有保持足够的口腔卫生——p<0.05（卡方=9.21）。关于牙刷，发现56.00%的女性使用硬毛牙刷，男性的这一比例为28.04%——p<0.05（卡方=4.15）。48.88%的城市居民和9.09%的农村居民使用硬毛牙刷——p<0.05（卡方=5.78）。30岁及以下的人最常使用硬毛牙刷——39.13%——p<0.01（卡方=12.26）。积累的证据进一步解释了为什么口腔癌在男性、农村居民和老年人中更常见。口腔卫生是口腔癌发展的一个因素。
