目的：本研究的目的是：（1）调查人们日常活动的常规和灵活性水平，并确定如何清洁牙齿适合这些活动。及（2）评估不同程度的日常生活习惯及灵活性对牙齿清洁模式（牙齿清洁的频率）、结构（牙齿清洁所用物品的范围）、表现（牙齿清洁的相对有效性）及表现结果（探诊时牙龈出血）的影响。方法：从工厂，办公室，银行，商店和医院选择了471名年龄在24至44岁的巴西人的方便样本。通过结构化访谈收集行为、社会经济和临床数据。通过临床检查评估牙菌斑和牙龈出血。资料采用Logistic回归分析。结果如下：在调整年龄、性别、婚姻状况和社会经济状况后，观察到日常活动和牙齿清洁模式之间存在高度显著的关系（OR=2.3; 95%CI =1.34，3.92）。日常活动和牙龈出血之间没有显着的关联。观察到牙齿清洁频率（OR=1.6; 95%CI =1.07，2.49）、性能（OR=2.7; 95%CI =1.77，4.14）、结果（OR=2.3; 95%CI =1.31，3.18）和日常活动灵活性之间存在显著相关性。那些有更多的日常活动的灵活性有较低的牙龈出血评分。结论：那些一天中刷牙次数少、时间更灵活的人比那些一天中刷牙次数少、时间更灵活的人有更高的刷牙频率。在这项研究中，那些有更灵活的一天也更有效地清洁他们的牙齿比那些有一个不太灵活的一天，并减少牙龈出血。
Objectives: The aims of this study were: (1) to investigate the level of routines and flexibility of people's daily activity and to identify how tooth cleaning fits into these activities,. and (2) to evaluate the impact of different levels of routines and flexibility in daily living on pattern (frequency of tooth cleaning), structure (range of items used in tooth cleaning), performance (relative effectiveness of tooth cleaning) and the outcome of performance (gingival bleeding on probing) in tooth cleaning. Methods: A convenience sample of 471 Brazilians aged 24 to 44 years was selected from factories, offices, banks, shops, and hospitals. Behavioral, socioeconomic, and clinical data were collected through structured interviews. Dental plaque and gingival bleeding were assessed by clinical examination. Data were analyzed by means of logistic regression. Results: A highly significant relationship was observed between routines of daily activities and tooth-cleaning pattern (OR=2.3; 95% Cl=1.34, 3.92) after adjusting for age, sex, marital status, and socioeconomic status. No significant associations were observed between routines of daily activities and gingival bleeding. A significant association was observed between tooth-cleaning frequency (OR=1.6; 95% Cl=1.07, 2.49), performance (OR=2.7; 95% Cl=1.77, 4.14), outcome (OR=2.3; 95% CI=1.31, 3.18), and flexibility of daily activities. Those who had more flexibility of daily activities had lower gingival bleeding scores. Conclusion: People who have a less routinized and more flexible day have higher tooth-cleaning frequency than those who have a less flexible and more routinized day. In this study, those with a more flexible day also cleaned their teeth more effectively than those who had a less flexible day, and had reduced gingival bleeding.
