口腔门诊就诊患者口腔健康知识、态度、行为特征及影响因素分析

目的 调查分析口腔门诊就诊患者口腔健康知识、态度、行为特征及影响因素。方法 选取2020年12月—2022年3月在我院门诊就诊的610例口腔疾病患者作为研究对象，采用口腔健康知识、态度、行为的问卷调查进行调查。以多因素logistic回归分析探讨影响口腔门诊就诊患者口腔健康知识、态度、行为的相关因素。结果 在认知方面，口腔门诊就诊患者对正确的刷牙方法，牙龈出血及牙隐裂的原因等专业知识知晓率较低；在态度方面，女性的积极性高于男性，部分年长者觉得牙修复起来能用就行，对维持牙周健康及口腔保健的依从率较低；在行为方面，部分患者表示因之前不了解护齿知识，经常使用牙齿不当，经常食用很硬很韧的食物，刷牙方式不对等。多因素logistic回归分析显示：性别（β=0.675,95%CI:0.232～0.817）、家庭住址（β=0.548,95%CI:0.513～1.157）、文化程度（β=0.524,95%CI:0.474～0.876）、自评口腔健康状态（β=0.835,95%CI:0.309～0.787）均为口腔门诊就诊患者口腔健康知识的影响因素（P<0.05）；性别（β=0.952,95%CI...

Investigation and analysis of oral health knowledge,attitude, and behavioral characteristics and influencing factors of patients in oral clinic

Objective To explore the oral health knowledge, attitude, behavioral characteristics, and influencing factors of patients in the oral clinic. Methods A total of 610 patients with oral diseases who visited the Department of Stomatology in our hospital from March 2019 to March 2021 were selected, and the questionnaires on oral health knowledge, attitude, and behavior were used for investigation. Differences in oral health knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors among patients with different characteristics were compared by t test or one-way ANOVA, and multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to investigate the related factors affecting oral health knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors of patients in the stomatology department. Results In terms of cognition, dental outpatients had low awareness of professional knowledge such as correct tooth brushing methods, causes of gingival bleeding and tooth cracked teeth, and in terms of attitude, women were more active than men. Some elderly people thought it was just fine that the repaired tooth could work, and the compliance rate for maintaining periodontal health and oral health care was low. In terms of behavior, some patients said that because they did not know the knowledge of tooth protection before, they often used teeth improperly, often ate very hard and tough food, and brushed their teeth in a wrong way. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that gender (β=0.675, 95%CI: 0.232-0.817), residence (β=0.548, 95%CI: 0.513-1.157), education level (β=0.675, 0.524, 95%CI: 0.474-0.876), and self-rated oral health status (β=0.835, 95%CI: 0.309-0.787) were all influencing factors of oral health knowledge of patients in oral clinic. Gender (β=0.952, 95%CI: 0.613-1.291), residence (β= 0.745, 95%CI: (0.379-1.111), education level (β=0.928, 95%CI: 0.690-1.165), self-assessed oral health status (β=0.571, 95%CI: 0.297-0.845), whether receiving oral education (β=1.172, 95%CI: 0.814-1.531), and oral health knowledge (β=0.502, 95%CI: 0.412-0.592) were all influencing factors of oral health care attitude of patients in oral clinic. Gender (β=1.228, 95%CI: 0.906-1.550), residence (β=0.872, 95%CI: 0.528-1.215), education level (β= 0.493, 95%CI: 0.274-0.712), self-assessed oral health status (β=0.619, 95%CI: 0.363-0.875), whether or not to receive oral education (β=0.596, 95%CI: 0.262-0.931), oral health knowledge (β=0.371, 95%CI: 0.286-0.457)], and oral health care attitude β=0.380, 95%CI: 0.168-0.593) were the influencing factors of oral behavior of patients in oral clinic. Conclusion The awareness rate of oral health knowledge of patients in oral clinic is not high, their attitude towards oral health is positive, and their oral health behavior is poor. Therefore, it is suggested that oral health education be strengthened in oral medical institutions at all levels, not only to make them aware of the importance of oral health, but also to help them develop good oral hygiene and eating habits to improve the ability of prevention and control of oral diseases.
