这项研究比较了同一州监狱人口和非监狱人口的牙病患病率。这项研究中的监狱人口由爱荷华州东部一所中等安全级别监狱的99名男性居民(年龄18-30岁)组成。数据是在使用标准DMFT指数进行预筛选期间收集的。这一监狱人口与爱荷华州口腔健康调查(1980)中的非监狱男性人口(N=101，年龄18-30岁)进行了比较。
数据表明，这两个群体在DMF的每个单独组成部分上都有统计学上的显著差异(p<；.0001)。监狱人口的平均龋齿数(3.0颗)和平均缺牙数(1.7颗)显著高于非监狱人口(分别为0.8和0.6颗)。监狱人口的充填牙齿(5.6颗)明显少于非监狱人口(9.0颗)。然而，数据表明，监狱人口(x=10.53)和非监狱人口(x=10.55)之间的总DMFT没有统计学意义上的差异。
总而言之，与同年(1980年)在同一州和同一年(1980)的非监狱人口相比，监狱人口表现出明显更多的龋齿和缺失的牙齿以及更少的补牙。
This study compares dental disease prevalence in a prison population and a nonprison population in the same state. The prison population in this study consisted of 99 male residents (age 18–30) of a medium-security prison in eastern Iowa. Data were collected during a pretreatment screening using a standard DMFT index. This prison population is compared to a nonprison male population (N = 101, age 18–30) from the Iowa Survey of Oral Health (1980).
Data indicated that there are statistically significant differences (p<.0001) between the two populations in each of the individual components of the DMF. In the prison population, the mean number of decayed teeth (3.0) and the mean number of missing teeth (1.7) are significantly higher in comparison to the nonprison population (0.8 and 0.6, respectively). The prison population demonstrated significantly fewer filled teeth (5.6) in comparison to the nonprison population (9.0). The data indicated, however, that there are no statistically significant differences in the total DMFT between the prison population (x = 10.53) and the nonprison population (x = 10.55).
In summary, the prison population demonstrated a significantly higher number of decayed and missing teeth and fewer filled teeth in comparison to a nonprison population in the same state and in the same year (1980).
