Abstract

BACKGROUND

Understanding oral health behaviour s and their impact on Oral Health-Related Quality of Life (OHRQoL) may serve as an instrument to articulate the conventional oral health policy framework, thereby ameliorating the overall health of young individuals in the long term.

OBJECTIVE

The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between children's oral health behaviour s and Oral Health-Related Quality of Life in the capital governorate, Kuwait.

METHODS

A cross-sectional study involving 607 children aged 12-14 years, randomly selected from schools in Kuwait Capital Region. A validated Oral Health Behaviour s and OHRQoL Child Perception Questionnaires (CPQ) was used to collect the data. Chi-square, t-tests, and ANOVA were used to examine the association between oral behaviour s and children's OHRQoL.

RESULTS

About 52.2% of participants were males and the overall response rate was 93.8%. The mean ± SD for total OHRQoL impact was 3.1 ± 0.58, while the total mean for individual domains- for oral symptoms, functional limitations, emotional well-being and social well-being were 2.89 ± 0.63, 2.89 ± 0.72, 3.1 ± 0.91 and 3.4 ± 0.61, respectively. There was no significant difference in total OHRQoL impact score by frequency of last dental visit, flossing, use of mouth rinse or chewing gum (p > 0.05) but for the overall OHRQoL, frequency of soft drink intake was the only significant predictor associated with 0.2-unit decrease (B = -0.207, 95% CI, p = 0.002) in total OHRQoL scores.

CONCLUSIONS

High frequency of soft drink consumption was related to poorer OHRQoL. Behaviour changing interventions based on OHRQoL inferences coupled with clinical intervention are needed.

摘要

背景

了解口腔健康行为及其对口腔健康相关生活质量（OHRQoL）的影响，可以作为阐述传统口腔健康政策框架的手段，从而从长远来看改善年轻人的整体健康状况。

目的

本研究旨在调查科威特首都地区儿童口腔健康行为与口腔健康相关生活质量之间的关系。

方法

这是一项横断面研究，涉及科威特首都地区学校中随机抽取的 607 名 12-14 岁儿童。使用经过验证的口腔健康行为和儿童感知问卷（CPQ）收集数据。使用卡方检验、t 检验和 ANOVA 检验来检验口腔行为与儿童 OHRQoL 之间的关联。

结果

大约 52.2%的参与者为男性，整体应答率为 93.8%。总 OHRQoL 影响的平均值±标准差为 3.1±0.58，而各领域的总平均值-口腔症状、功能受限、情绪健康和社会健康分别为 2.89±0.63、2.89±0.72、3.1±0.91 和 3.4±0.61。最后一次看牙医的频率、使用牙线、使用漱口水或咀嚼口香糖的频率与总 OHRQoL 影响评分之间没有显著差异（p>0.05），但在总体 OHRQoL 方面，软饮料摄入频率是唯一与总 OHRQoL 评分降低 0.2 单位相关的显著预测因素（B=-0.207，95%CI，p=0.002）。
