Abstract - Good oral health is an essential part of better general health and well-being throughout life. Regular dental visit has been found to provide an opportunity for oral health care professionals to diagnose illness, provide primary preventive services and treat particular dental disease and other oral health related problems. The aim of this study was to assess dental service use and dentition status among 12 year-old schoolchildren in two townships from East District, Yangon Region. Cross-sectional, descriptive, school-based, non-intervention type of study was carried out among 482 (250 boys and 232 girls) schoolchildren in 2017-18. Data concerning sociodemographic characteristics, dental visit pattern and dentition status were determined. The present sample was likely to represent urban population and nearly half of their parents had only completed primary and middle school education. Almost the same distribution pattern of education was found between fathers and mothers. Two third of fathers (65.6%) and one third of mothers (30.7%) were unskilled workers and more than half of mothers (55.4%) were dependent. History of dental service utilization was reported in 42.9% of students and main reason was toothache (52.2%). Among those who had visited to the dentist (n=207), most of them (86.5%) visited to the private dental surgeons and 65.2% had received treatment of tooth extraction. Approximately 40.0% of students acquired oral health knowledge from dental surgeon. Most of the students (92.9%) responded that they should see the dental surgeon at least once a year for routine dental checkup. Dental caries prevalence was 67.0% with mean DMF-T of 0.65 (SD 1.16) where decayed was a dominant portion. No relationships were observed between dental caries and gender, parental education, parental occupation, dental visiting pattern. However, higher caries prevalence was found in schoolchildren with lower mothers’ educational level. In addition, lower level of dental visit pattern was observed among those with low parental educational level. Thus preventive as well as curative measures should be promoted along with school dental health program. |
