大多数研究基于教育和收入水平调查了父母的社会经济因素与儿童龋齿之间的关系；然而，针对父母职业的研究相对有限。这项横断面研究考察了父母职业、教育水平和家庭收入与日本3岁儿童的龋齿患病率之间的关系。研究对象为6315名儿童。口腔检查结果来自父母或监护人，他们将公共卫生中心医务人员从母婴保健手册中记录的信息转录到我们的自填式问卷中。如果一颗或多颗乳牙已腐烂或已被充填，儿童被归类为患有龋齿。对性别、年龄、居住地区、母乳喂养持续时间、餐间零食频率、刷牙频率、氟化物的使用、定期牙科检查、孕期母亲吸烟以及与至少一名家庭吸烟者一起生活进行了调整。患龋率为14.7%。与没有工作的父亲相比，父亲从事专业和工程、文员、销售、安全或制造流程的工作与龋齿患病率显著相关。与没有工作的母亲相比，母亲从事专业、工程或服务工作与龋齿患病率显著负相关。父母的教育程度和家庭收入与龋齿患病率之间存在显著的负相关。我们的研究结果表明，父母的职业影响儿童龋齿的患病率。我们确认，较高的父母教育水平和家庭收入降低了龋齿的患病率。
Most studies have investigated the association between parental socioeconomic factors and dental caries in children based on educational and income levels; studies focusing on parental occupation, however, have been relatively limited. This cross-sectional study examined the associations between parental occupations and levels of education and household income and the prevalence of dental caries in Japanese children aged 3 years. Study subjects were 6315 children. Oral examination results were obtained from the parents or guardians, who transcribed the information recorded by medical staff at a public health center from their maternal and child health handbooks to our self-administered questionnaire. Children were classified as having dental caries if one or more primary teeth had decayed or had been filled. Adjustment was made for sex, age, region of residence, breastfeeding duration, between-meal snack frequency, toothbrushing frequency, use of fluoride, regular dental check-ups, maternal smoking during pregnancy, and living with at least one household smoker. The prevalence of dental caries was 14.7%. Compared with having an unemployed father, having a father employed in professional and engineering, clerical, sales, security, or manufacturing process was significantly associated with a lower prevalence of dental caries. Compared with having an unemployed mother, having a mother employed in professional and engineering or service was significantly inversely associated with the prevalence of dental caries. Significant inverse associations were observed between parental levels of education and household income and the prevalence of dental caries. The findings of our study suggest that parental occupation affects the prevalence of dental caries in children. We confirm that higher levels of parental education and household income decreased the prevalence of dental caries.
