Title

Oral Health Status of 12-and 15-Year-Old Students in Qatar: Findings From the National Oral Health Survey

Pages

  32-37

Abstract

 Introduction: The national Oral health survey-Qatar (2011) was carried out to collect the baseline Oral health information among youth. This article describes the Oral health status of 12 and 15-year-old students in Qatar. Methods: Cross-sectional survey data were analyzed for 12 (N = 1060) and 15 (N = 1064) yearold students. Caries status was determined based on decayed, missing, filled teeth (DMFT) = 0 (no caries) & DMFT ≥ 1 (caries present). Mean indices among nationalities and sex were compared by Student’ s t test. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to compare means by the type of the school. Logistic regression was used to examine associations among variables. Results: About 53% (n = 565) of 12-year-old and 55% (n = 589) of 15-year-old had varying degrees of caries. The odds of caries were higher among girls vs. boys aged 12 years (OR [odds ratio] = 1. 3, P = 0. 05) and 15-years-old (OR = 1. 28, P = 0. 04). Qatari students had a higher mean DMFT value (1. 3 ± 1. 2) compared to non-Qataris (0. 82 ± 1. 1). The public/independent school students had higher mean DMFT (1. 31 ± 1. 2) vs. other two school categories. Fifteen-year-old students had lower odds (OR = 0. 81, P=0. 02) of gingival bleeding and higher odds (OR = 1. 68, P<0. 001) of calculus vs. 12-year-old. Dental fluorosis was found among 15% of 12-year-old and 16. 6% of 15-year-old. The odds of fluorosis were higher (not statistically significant) among 15-years-old (OR = 1. 1, P = 0. 36). Lower odds of bleeding teeth (OR = 0. 81, P = 0. 02) and higher odds of calculus were found among 15-year-old (OR = 1. 68, P<0. 001) compared to 12-year-old. Conclusion: The results provide directions to further strengthen the Oral health strategies through various evidence-based interventions.
