材料和方法1980年春季和夏季期间完成的临床牙科检查的1,094名居民在该设施。检查由两组牙科检查员进行，每组由一名牙医和一名助理组成，他们都是中心牙科工作人员。使用5号平面口腔镜、5号探测器和牙周探针进行临床检查。对各小组进行了为期5天的校准，以确保对所研究标准的统一解释和对观察到的条件的一致记录。在整个调查过程中，尽一切努力维持标准化的考试程序和结果记录。口腔健康调查包括年龄、性别、医疗诊断、心理能力、牙周病、龋齿、咬合关系和治疗需求。没有进行放射学检查，因为很少有居民能够合作。
Materials and methodsClinical dental examinations were completed during the spring and summer of 1980 for 1,094 residents at the facility. Examinations were performed by two teams of dental examiners-ach consisting of one dentist and one assistant-who are members of the dental staff at the center. Clinical examinations were performed using no. 5 plane mouth mirrors, no. 5 explorers, and periodontal probes. Teams were calibrated for 5 days to ensure uniform interpretation of the criteria being studied and consistent recording of the observed conditions. Throughout the survey, every effort was made to maintain standardized examination procedures and recording of results. The dental health survey included age, gender, medical diagnosis, degree of mental ability, measure of periodontal disease, dental caries, occlusal relations, and treatment requirements. No radiographic examinations were performed because few residents were able to cooperate.
