Abstract

Objectives

To examine the association between dental clinical status and school performance and school attendance in the Kingdom of Bahrain (KoB) using a life-course framework.

Methods

This time-ordered cross-sectional study included 466 school children in Grade 2 (aged 7–8 years) and their parents in the KoB. Data were collected through parents' self-administered questionnaires, children's face-to-face interviews and dental clinical examinations. Data on children's school performance and school attendance were gathered from parents and school records. Structural equation modelling (SEM) examined the direct and indirect pathways between variables.

Results

Children born in families with high socio-economic status (SES) were less likely to have dental caries and more likely to have better school performance at 7–8 years of age. Dentine caries was directly linked with poor school performance. Treated teeth directly predicted high school performance. The presence of dentine caries mediated the relationship of SES with school performance.

Conclusions

Birth and current socio-economic factors were significant predictors of dental clinical conditions and school performance. Dental caries and fewer treated teeth directly predicted poor school performance.

巴林王国儿童牙科临床状况与学习成绩和入学率的关系：生命历程方法。

目的：采用生命历程框架研究巴林王国（KoB）的牙齿临床状况与学习成绩和入学率之间的关系：采用生命历程框架研究巴林王国（KoB）牙科临床状况与学习成绩和入学率之间的关系：这项按时间顺序排列的横断面研究包括巴林王国 466 名二年级学生（7-8 岁）及其家长。数据通过家长自填问卷、儿童面对面访谈和牙科临床检查收集。有关儿童在校表现和出勤率的数据则来自家长和学校记录。结构方程模型（SEM）检验了变量之间的直接和间接关系：结果：出生在社会经济地位（SES）较高家庭的儿童患龋齿的可能性较小，7-8 岁时在校表现较好的可能性较大。龋齿与学习成绩差直接相关。经过治疗的牙齿直接预示着高学习成绩。龋齿的存在对社会经济地位与学习成绩之间的关系起着中介作用：结论：出生和当前的社会经济因素是牙科临床状况和学习成绩的重要预测因素。龋齿和治疗过的牙齿较少直接预示着学习成绩较差。

期刊介绍： The aim of Community Dentistry and Oral Epidemiology is to serve as a forum for scientifically based information in community dentistry, with the intention of continually expanding the knowledge base in the field. The scope is therefore broad, ranging from original studies in epidemiology, behavioral sciences related to dentistry, and health services research through to methodological reports in program planning, implementation and evaluation. Reports dealing with people of all age groups are welcome. The journal encourages manuscripts which present methodologically detailed scientific research findings from original data collection or analysis of existing databases. Preference is given to new findings. Confirmations of previous findings can be of value, but the journal seeks to avoid needless repetition. It also encourages thoughtful, provocative commentaries on subjects ranging from research methods to public policies. Purely descriptive reports are not encouraged, nor are behavioral science reports with only marginal application to dentistry. The journal is published bimonthly.
