BACKGROUND/PURPOSE: To assess how the current COVID-19 epidemic influenced peoples' utilization of emergency dental services in Beijing, China.
METHODS
The first-visit patients seeking emergency dental services before or at the beginning of the COVID-19 epidemic were retrieved. Their demographic characteristics and the reasons for visiting were recorded and analyzed.
RESULTS
There were 2,537 patients involved in this study. Thirty-eight percent fewer patients visited the dental urgency at the beginning of the COVID-19 epidemic than before. The distribution of dental problems has changed significantly. The proportion of dental and oral infection raised from 51.0% of pre-COVID-19 to 71.9% during COVID-19, and dental trauma decreased from 14.2% to 10.5%. Meanwhile, the non-urgency cases reduced to three-tenths of pre-COVID-19.
CONCLUSION
Within the limitation of this study, the COVID-19 epidemic had a strong influence on the utilization of emergency dental services.
背景/目的：评估当前新冠疫情如何影响中国北京民众对急诊牙科服务的利用情况。
方法
检索在新冠疫情之前或开始时寻求急诊牙科服务的初诊患者。记录并分析他们的人口统计学特征及就诊原因。
结果
本研究纳入了2537名患者。在新冠疫情开始时，就诊于牙科急症科室的患者比之前减少了38%。牙科问题的分布发生了显著变化。口腔感染的比例从新冠疫情前的51.0%升至疫情期间的71.9%，而牙外伤从14.2%降至10.5%。同时，非急症病例减少至新冠疫情前的十分之三。
结论
在本研究的局限性范围内，新冠疫情对急诊牙科服务的利用有很大影响。
