Oral Health Disparities and Psychosocial Correlates of Self-Rated Oral Health in the National Survey of American Life
Objectives. We sought to better understand the determinants of oral health disparities by examining individual-level psychosocial stressors and resources and self-rated oral health in nationally representative samples of Black American, Caribbean Black, and non-Hispanic White adults. Methods. We conducted logistic regression analyses on fair or poor versus better oral health using data from the National Survey of American Life (n = 6082). Results…
Overview and Quality Assurance for the Oral Health Component of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES), 2003‐04
Overall, the data reliability analyses conducted for 2009-2010 indicate an acceptable level of data quality and that examiner (dental hygienist) performance in this data collection cycle is similar to prior survey periods since the NHANES continuous survey began in 1999
Dental Caries and Dental Fluorosis Among Schoolchildren Who Were Lifelong Residents of Communities Having Either Low or Optimal Levels of Fluoride in Drinking Water
Findings from the present study suggest that water fluoridation still is beneficial and that dental sealants can play a significant role in preventing dental caries. In addition, findings from this survey appear to support the premise that the difference in dental fluorosis prevalence between fluoridated and nonfluoridated communities has narrowed considerably in recent years
The State of the Nation's Oral Health
The persistent and often dramatic race-ethnicity and socioeconomic differences on many objectives, in combination with possible alterations in the public health infrastructure, indicate that concentrated and collaborative efforts are needed to achieve Healthy People 2000 targets
Prevalence of Dental Caries and Dental Fluorosis in Areas with Optimal and Above‐optimal Water Fluoride Concentrations
The results suggest that: (1) in the optimally fluoridated community, the apparent increase in the prevalence of dental fluorosis observed from 1980 to 1985 did not continue from 1985 to 1990; and (2) at above-optimal water fluoride concentrations, dental fluorosis either remained stable or demonstrated no sustained increase over the decade
The Prevalence of Dental Fluorosis in a School‐based Program of Fluoride Mouthrinsing, Fluoride Tablets, and Both Procedures Combined
These results reiterate the safety of school-based fluoride mouthrinse, fluoride tablet, or combined regimens in communities with fluoride-deficient water supplies
A Comparison of the Caries‐preventive Effects of Fluoride Mouthrinsing, Fluoride Tablets, and Both Procedures Combined
This paper presents final results of an eight-year clinical trial designed to compare the caries-preventive benefits of two self-administered fluoride procedures when used separately and in combination with one another. Children in kindergarten and first grade residing in Springfield, Ohio, a nonfluoridated community, were assigned randomly within school to one of three groups that either (a) rinsed once a week in school with a 0.2 percent neutra…
Evaluation of the Comparative Effectiveness of Fluoride Mouthrinsing, Fluoride Tablets, and Both Procedures in Combination
This article presents five-year interim findings of an eight-year clinical trial designed to compare the relative caries-preventive benefits of weekly fluoride mouthrinsing, daily fluoride tablet administration, and both procedures combined. Children in kindergarten and first grade residing in Springfield, Ohio, a nonfluoridated community, were assigned randomly in school to one of three groups that (1) rinses once a week in school with a 0.2 per…
