Abstract

The purpose of this study was to develop methods to evaluate treatment needs (TNEED) and previous treatment (TDONE) in different populations. In the collaborative study, 'Children's Dental Health in Europe', the methods were used in connection with a clinical examination to document and compare treatment needs in 200 5-year-olds and 200 12-year-olds from each of the 8 participating countries. The study comprised a total of 3200 children from Belgium, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Scotland, Spain, and Sweden. The method for calculating TNEED was validated by estimation of required time to meet the treatment needs (TNTIME). The calculated TNEED shows a clear relationship with the evaluated TNTIME, and the method is applicable to different population subgroups. The results revealed large differences in both TNEED and TDONE among the different countries and between the two age groups.

摘要

本研究的目的是开发评估不同人群治疗需求（TNEED）和既往治疗情况（TDONE）的方法。在“欧洲儿童口腔健康”这项合作研究中，这些方法与临床检查相结合，用于记录和比较来自8个参与国的200名5岁儿童和200名12岁儿童的治疗需求。该研究总共纳入了来自比利时、德国、希腊、爱尔兰、意大利、苏格兰、西班牙和瑞典的3200名儿童。通过估计满足治疗需求所需的时间（TNTIME），对计算TNEED的方法进行了验证。计算得出的TNEED与评估的TNTIME之间存在明显的关系，并且该方法适用于不同的人群亚组。结果显示，不同国家之间以及两个年龄组之间在TNEED和TDONE方面均存在巨大差异。
