Oral health information was included in 89.5% of diabetes education programs in states with high diabetes prevalence compared to 85.9% in low prevalence states (P = 0.22). Comparing the high to low diabetes prevalence states, there were significant differences in odds for responding "yes" to the topics "show patients proper tooth brushing (and flossing) techniques" and "managing dry mouth" (Ps = 0.02). However, management of dry mouth, demonstrations and return demonstrations of oral hygiene techniques were covered by 27.0%, 10.1% and < 1% programs, respectively.
口腔健康信息在高糖尿病流行率的州的糖尿病教育项目中占 89.5%,而在低流行率的州中占 85.9%(P = 0.22)。比较高和低糖尿病流行率的州,对于“向患者展示正确的刷牙(和使用牙线)技术”和“处理口干”这两个主题,回答“是”的可能性存在显著差异(Ps = 0.02)。然而,口干管理、口腔卫生技术演示和返回演示分别被 27.0%、10.1%和 < 1%的项目涵盖。
