This study analyzes associated factors to self-perceived oral health and use of oral health services in native and immigrant adults from the PELFI cohort in Spain. A cross-sectional analysis was conducted (401 adults ≥ 18 years, from Spain, Ecuador, Colombia and Morocco). Frequencies for sociodemographic, self-perceived general and oral health variables were calculated. The association between oral health/oral health services use and origin country was estimated by logistic regression (adjusted odds ratio-aOR-; 95% confidence intervals -95%CI-). Ecuadorian men were more likely to report dental caries (aPR 2.75; 95%CI 1.30-5.80) and Moroccan women were more likely to report gingival bleeding (aPR 3.61; 95%CI 1.83-7.15) and the use of oral health services ≥ 1 year/never (aPR 1.69; 95%CI 1.06-2.69). Colombian women were less likely to report missing teeth (aPR 0.73; 95%CI 0.56-0.95). Poor self-perceived oral health indicators were observed in immigrants and were modified for sociodemographic and general health variables.
本研究分析了西班牙 PELFI 队列中本地和移民成年人的自我感知口腔健康和口腔卫生服务使用的相关因素。进行了横断面分析（401 名成年人年龄≥18 岁，来自西班牙、厄瓜多尔、哥伦比亚和摩洛哥）。计算了社会人口统计学、自我感知一般和口腔健康变量的频率。通过逻辑回归（调整后的优势比-aOR-；95%置信区间-95%CI-）估计口腔健康/口腔卫生服务使用与原籍国之间的关联。厄瓜多尔男性更有可能报告龋齿（aPR 2.75；95%CI 1.30-5.80），摩洛哥女性更有可能报告牙龈出血（aPR 3.61；95%CI 1.83-7.15）和使用口腔卫生服务≥1 年/从不（aPR 1.69；95%CI 1.06-2.69）。哥伦比亚女性缺失牙齿的可能性较低（aPR 0.73；95%CI 0.56-0.95）。移民中观察到较差的自我感知口腔健康指标，并针对社会人口统计学和一般健康变量进行了修正。
