Analysis of 1,280 private patient records from a periodontal clinic showed poor compliance with supportive periodontal therapy (SPT). Data were analyzed according to sex, age, and type of treatment (with or without periodontal surgery). Analysis showed that 25.2% of the patients never returned and among those who report for SPT, only 40.1% did so regularly; the percent of surgical cases was greater (70.7%) and those patients had better compliance (77.6%); compliance of women was greater (76.5%); abandonment of supportive periodontal treatment was high (66.7%), and compliance increased with age. Several suggestions concerning clinical procedures are offered with the objective of motivating patients to give the necessary importance to supportive periodontal therapy.
对一家牙周诊所1280份私人患者记录的分析显示，患者对牙周支持治疗（SPT）的依从性较差。根据性别、年龄和治疗类型（是否接受牙周手术）对数据进行了分析。分析表明，25.2%的患者从未复诊，在前来接受牙周支持治疗的患者中，只有40.1%的患者定期复诊；接受手术治疗的病例比例更高（70.7%），这些患者的依从性更好（77.6%）；女性的依从性更高（76.5%）；牙周支持治疗的放弃率很高（66.7%），且依从性随年龄增长而增加。针对临床操作提出了一些建议，目的是促使患者对牙周支持治疗给予必要的重视。
