  • Communication about Dental Health in Norwegian adults.
    Community dentistry and oral epidemiology, 1991
    Co-Authors: Jostein Rise, Anne Johanne Søgaard
    Abstract:

    Abstract The present study describes the amount and distribution of communication on Dental Health issues in Norwegian adults. The empirical data stem from a representative sample of Norwegians aged 15 and above, and were collected by means of personal interviews by the poll organization Norges Markedsdata in 1983. Edentulous subjects were excluded, and the study group finally comprised 1225 subjects. The dependent variable Dental communication was a dichotomy based upon whether or not the respondents had communicated with friends about Dental Health during the last 6 months. The following independent variables were used: age, sex, marital status, education, use of Dental services, number of teeth, knowledge of prevention, information about Dental Health from dentists and media, use of Dental (loss and toothpicks. The empirical analysis was performed using contingency table analysis and Multiple Classification Analysis (MCA). Separate analyses were performed for men and women. Significantly more women (27.6%) than men (14.5%) reported Dental communication. In addition, the model provided a hotter 111 to the data on women compared to men in terms of R2 (12.5% and 8.9%). These observations can to some extent be accounted for by the existing sex-role pattern. The only predictor which showed a consistent direct effect across sex was whether I he respondents had received information about Dental Health from media. This means That reference to the interpersonal context of mass communication perhaps best describes the complex transactional interplay of media and interpersonal sources in Dental Health matters.

    Acta psychiatrica Scandinavica, 2004
    Co-Authors: R. G. Mccreadie, H. Stevens, Johnny Henderson, D. Hall, R. Mccaul, R. Filik, G. Young, G. Sutch, G. Kanagaratnam, S. Perrington
    Abstract:

    Objective:  To examine the Dental Health of community dwelling people with schizophrenia and to compare results with those in the general population. Method:  Dental Health of 428 people with schizophrenia in six different areas of the UK was assessed by a self-report questionnaire. Results:  Compared with the general population, significantly more of the younger patients were edentate (3–39% vs. 1–20%) and fewer had more than 20 teeth (70% vs. 83%). None of four Dental Health targets had been achieved in the patient population. More patients had last visited the dentist because of trouble with their teeth; fewer had visited for a check-up. Fewer patients cleaned their teeth daily; this group had more negative symptoms. Conclusion:  The Dental Health of people with schizophrenia is poor. Community mental Health teams should encourage them to attend their community dentist regularly.
