The purpose of the present investigation was to gather information on the prevalence of dental caries and the quality of restorations of new immigrants to Israel, and to compare those two categories among immigrants from different regions of origin. New immigrants, residents of four absorption centers in Israel, were included in the study. Altogether, 1,031 immigrants (417 Eastern European, 338 Western European/North American and 276 South American) were examined. The results indicate that new immigrants to Israel from Eastern Europe are affected with more carious teeth (D), are missing more teeth (M), and have received quantitatively less treatment (F) than immigrants from Western Europe/North American and South America. The South America are an intermediate group. A similar distribution was found between the groups by their respective ages. The quality of dental restoration was found to be statistically higher among immigrants from Western European/North American and South American origins with the latter group exhibiting an intermediate level of quality of dental restorations.
本调查的目的是收集有关以色列新移民龋齿患病率和修复体质量的信息,并比较来自不同原籍地区的移民在这两个方面的情况。以色列四个接纳中心的新移民被纳入研究。总共检查了1031名移民(417名东欧人、338名西欧/北美人和276名南美人)。结果表明,与来自西欧/北美和南美的移民相比,来自东欧的以色列新移民患龋牙(D)更多,缺牙(M)更多,接受的治疗量(F)更少。南美人是一个中间群体。按各自年龄分组,各群体之间也发现了类似的分布情况。来自西欧/北美和南美的移民的牙齿修复质量在统计学上更高,后一组的牙齿修复质量处于中间水平。
