Abstract

Introduction: Hepatitis B is a most common infectious disease with noteworthy mortality and morbidity. DENTISTS and assistants are among the people who are expected to receive this infection from oral fluid or occupational injury, therefore viral hepatitis is one of DENTISTS' occupational hazards.Objective: Survey of dentist's and their staffs' VACCINATION in Guilan in year 2004-2005.Materials and Methods: In this cross sectional study questionnaires were sent to all dental offices in 2004 and 2005. Those questionnaires consisted of age, sex and previous works and previous VACCINATION. 319 dentist, include 241 (75.4%) specialized and general DENTISTS (26 and 215 respectively) and 258 assistants in offices in Rasht and 18 other cities in Guilan province replied to the questioners. The data were analyzed by SPSS V 10 software and statistical test of X2.Results: Of 499 that were studied, 359 (71.9%) had full doses of VACCINATION and 140 (28.1%) received no kind of VACCINATION. 26 specialized DENTISTS (100%) and 240 general DENTISTS (94.9%) (CI 98%: 92-97.8%) had full coverage of VACCINATION and 11 (5.1%) received no kind of hepatitis VACCINATION. But only 50% of the staffs had significant VACCINATION (CI 95%: 43.9-56.1 %) and this showed a meaningful difference between dental staffs and DENTISTS (P<0.001).And there is also a meaningful difference between assistants previous works and their VACCINATION coverage (P<0.001).Vaccination in assistants with lesser than one year in comparison with the groups that had more than one year experience, who had not received VACCINATION, had a significant different (P<0.001). But there isn't any difference between previous works of DENTISTS with their VACCINATION coverage. Sex had no role among DENTISTS with their VACCINATION coverage but it was totally effective in dental staffs (P<0.001).Conclusion: Determining antibody titer against HBV in all DENTISTS has been recommended in order to make sure the total effect of the VACCINATION. All of the assistants should have a health card that has shown receiving HBV VACCINATION in their first entrance in the clinics.
