本研究的目的是描述美国监狱中联邦男性囚犯（21-75岁）蛀牙、缺牙和补牙的流行情况。并评估年龄、种族、监禁年数和监狱牙医就诊次数对这些口腔健康参数的影响。囚犯（n = 191）是随机选择的，占监狱人口（n = 1161）的16.4%。两名经过校准的检查员使用NIDR标准收集龋齿和牙齿脱落数据。未拍摄x光片。结果显示，20-34岁囚犯的平均DMFT为12.9,35- 44岁囚犯的平均DMFT为16.4,45岁及以上囚犯的平均DMFT为22.1。白种人的蛀牙明显少于白种人(P <。年龄在20-34岁之间的黑人囚犯比黑人囚犯多。缺牙数显著增加（P < 0.05）。01)与犯人年龄有关。35 - 44岁无牙比例为5.2%，45-54岁为17.3%，55 - 75岁为45.5%。交叉表和卡方分析显示，被监禁不到两年的囚犯的心理健康状况显著低于。001)较低的牙科服务使用率，而较多利用现有牙科服务的囚犯比使用率较低的囚犯蛀牙较少。
The purpose of this study was to describe the prevalence of decayed, missing, and filled teeth among federal male prisoners (aged 21-75) in the US Penitentiary. Leavenworth, Kansas, and to assess the impact of age, race, number of years incarcerated, and number of visits to the prison dentist on these parameters of oral health. Inmates (n = 191) were randomly selected and represented 16.4 percent of the prison population (N = 1,161). Two calibrated examiners collected caries and tooth loss data using NIDR criteria. No radiographs were taken. Results showed a mean DMFT of 12.9 for inmates aged 20-34, 16.4 for inmates aged 35- 44, and 22.1 for inmates aged 45 and older. Whites had significantly fewer decayed teeth (P less than .05) than black inmates for ages 20-34. The number of missing teeth increased significantly (P less than .01) with inmate age. Proportion edentulous (both arches) was 5.2 percent for ages 35 to 44, 17.3 percent for ages 45-54, and 45.5 percent for ages 55 to 75. Cross tabulations and chi-square analyses showed that inmates incarcerated less than two years had a significantly (P less than .001) lower utilization rate of dental services, and that inmates who made greater use of available dental services had fewer decayed teeth than those with lower utilization rates.
