本研究的目的是调查影响日本居民社区生活质量的临床口腔健康状况关系（使用 12 项一般口腔健康评估指数 (GOHAI)）和自评口腔健康。方法：对日本横手市459名40-55岁的居民进行口腔健康检查，并填写自填问卷，收集年龄、性别、GOHAI项目和口腔健康自评数据。以GOHAI或口腔健康自评作为因变量，以性别、年龄和口腔健康状况指标作为自变量进行线性回归分析。结果：GOHAI 表明 42.7% 的受试者担心牙齿外观，30.1% 的受试者担心牙齿问题，27.5% 的受试者担心牙齿敏感。分析表明，性别、蛀牙、口腔干燥和牙齿缺失与 GOHAI 评分的变化显着相关，并且性别、蛀牙、口腔干燥和口腔卫生与自评口腔健康的变化显着相关。结论：这项研究表明，在 40-55 岁的日本成年人样本中，蛀牙和口腔干燥会影响 GOHAI 和自评口腔健康，而牙齿缺失会影响 GOHAI，而口腔卫生则会影响自评口腔健康。受试者不认为牙周病是一种影响生活质量的疾病或健康问题。
The objective of this study was to investigate clinical oral health status relationships that affect quality of life (using the 12-item General Oral Health Assessment Index (GOHAI)) and self-rated oral health in a community of Japanese residents. Methods: 459 residents of Yokote City, Japan aged 40-55 years had oral health examinations and completed self-administered questionnaires collecting data on age, gender, GOHAI items and self-rated oral health. Linear regression analysis was performed with GOHAI or self-rated oral health as a dependent variable and gender, age and indicators of oral health status as independent variables. Results: The GOHAI indicated 42.7% of subjects were concerned about the appearance of their teeth, 30.1% were worried about teeth problems and 27.5% concerned about sensitive teeth. Analyses showed that gender, decayed teeth, oral dryness and missing teeth were significantly associated with variation in GOHAI scores, and that gender, decayed teeth, oral dryness and oral hygiene were significantly associated with variation in self-rated oral health. Conclusion: This study revealed that in this sample of Japanese adults aged 40-55 years, decayed teeth and oral dryness affected both GOHAI and self-rated oral health, whereas missing teeth affected GOHAI and oral hygiene affected self-rated oral health. Subjects did not recognise periodontal disease as a quality of life impacting condition or as a health problem.
