Self‐reported factors associated with dental care utilization among Hispanic migrant farmworkers in South Florida
Dados Bibliográficos
Objectives To explore patterns of dental care utilization among adult Hispanic migrant farmworkers utilizing the Andersen Behavioral Model of Health Services. Methods In 2010, 278 Hispanic migrant workers participated in the oral health assessment. Hierarchical logistic regression modeling was used to assess the effects of multiple factors on having a past‐year dental visit. Predisposing variables included age, education, and knowledge toward preventing tooth decay. Enabling factors included medical insurance, place for medical care, and social support. Need measures included oral health problems and treatment. Results Only 20.5 percent of Hispanic migrant farmworkers reported a past‐year dental visit. More than one‐half (52.5 percent) needed oral health treatment and nearly two‐thirds (61.2 percent) stated that they perceived their mouth to be in poor condition. The final model indicated that those who reported preventing tooth decay by brushing and flossing, brushed their teeth once a day, and stated a good condition of their mouth were more likely to have had a past‐year dental visit. Conclusions Most Hispanic migrant farmworkers in south Florida have not had a past year dental visit. Similar to other ethnic minorities in the United States, migrant farmworkers experience poor oral health outcomes and have inadequate access to health‐care services
