Indonesia has the largest population of all countries in southeast Asia. However, little information is available on the oral health status of Indonesian children. The aims of this study were to assess dental caries and erosive tooth wear in 12-year-old children in Jakarta, Indonesia and to investigate the associated risk factors.
Samples were selected using cluster sampling. Parents were asked to complete a self-administered questionnaire regarding their oral health knowledge, demographic information, their child's dietary habits, and oral health-related behaviors. Experience of caries and erosive tooth wear were recorded using the Decayed, Missing (due to caries), and Filled Teeth (DMFT) index and the Basic Erosive Wear Examination (BEWE) index, respectively.
Of 779 children invited, 696 participated in the survey. Of these, 61% had experienced caries, and the mean DMFT score was 1.58. Almost all decay was untreated. Children who were female, who had a high frequency of soft drink intake, and whose father's educational level was low were more likely to have dental caries. Most children had at least one lesion of erosive tooth wear. Children whose mother's educational level was low were more likely to have erosive tooth wear.
The prevalence of dental caries and erosive tooth wear was high in 12-year-old children in Jakarta. Their dietary habits and parental level of education were associated with the presence of these dental conditions.
印度尼西亚是东南亚所有国家中人口最多的国家。然而,关于印度尼西亚儿童的口腔健康状况的信息却很少。本研究旨在评估印度尼西亚雅加达 12 岁儿童的龋齿和牙齿酸蚀磨损状况,并调查相关的危险因素。
采用聚类抽样选择样本。让家长填写一份关于其口腔健康知识、人口统计学信息、孩子的饮食习惯以及口腔健康相关行为的自我管理问卷。使用龋失补牙数(DMFT)指数和基本侵蚀性磨损检查(BEWE)指数分别记录龋齿和牙齿酸蚀磨损的患病情况。
在邀请的 779 名儿童中,有 696 名参与了调查。其中,61%的儿童有过龋齿,平均 DMFT 得分为 1.58。几乎所有的龋齿都未经治疗。女性、软饮料摄入频率高以及父亲受教育程度低的儿童更容易患龋齿。大多数儿童至少有一个牙齿酸蚀磨损的损伤。母亲受教育程度低的儿童更容易发生牙齿酸蚀磨损。
雅加达 12 岁儿童的龋齿和牙齿酸蚀磨损患病率较高。他们的饮食习惯和父母的教育水平与这些口腔状况的发生有关。
