目的:描述马里兰州学龄儿童牙痛的终生患病率。方法:数据来自2000-01年进行的马里兰州学龄儿童口腔健康状况调查。根据一名成年受访者的报告,对2,411名幼儿园和三年级学生的牙痛史进行了分析。计算其95%置信区间的平均值,以获得社会人口学特征和龋齿状况的牙痛分布的状态表示。结果:总体而言,11.8%的马里兰州学龄儿童在幼儿园和三年级有一些牙痛。在患有龋齿的儿童中,牙痛的报告增加到28.2%。来自教育程度低或有资格获得免费或减少膳食或医疗补助的家庭的儿童更有可能经历牙痛。结论:几乎三分之一的马里兰州幼儿园和三年级有龋齿的学生经历过牙痛。
Objective: To describe the lifetime prevalence of dental pain among Maryland's school age children. Methods: Data come from the Survey of Oral Health Status of Maryland School Children conducted in 2000–01. History of dental pain, as reported by an adult respondent, was analyzed for 2,411 kindergarten and third grade students. Percentages with their 95% confidence interval were calculated to obtain state representation of the distribution of dental pain by sociodemographic characteristics and caries status. Results: Overall, 11.8 percent of Maryland school age children in kindergarten and third grade have had some dental pain. Among children who have had caries, the report of dental pain increases to 28.2 percent. Children from families with low educational attainment or eligible for free or reduced meals or covered by Medicaid were more likely to have experienced dental pain. Conclusion: Almost a third of Maryland kindergartens and third graders who have caries have experienced dental pain.
