Abstract

Purpose: To evaluate the relationship between self-rated oral health, subjective oral conditions, oral health behaviours, and oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) in Chinese college students.

Materials and methods: An online cross-sectional survey was conducted, inviting college students from eastern China to participate. A total of 1708 participants were included. A structural equation model was constructed to explain and assess the associations among self-rated oral health, subjective oral conditions, oral health behaviours, and OHRQoL.

Results: Self-rated oral health had a direct positive effect on subjective oral conditions and OHRQoL. Oral health behaviours had direct negative impacts on subjective oral conditions and OHRQoL as well as on tooth condition perception and oral health interventions. Subjective oral conditions had a direct positive effect on OHRQoL. There was a positive correlation between oral health behaviours and self-rated oral health. In addition, subjective oral conditions partially mediated both the effect of oral health behaviours on OHRQoL and the effect of self-rated oral health on OHRQoL.

Conclusion: There were influential associations between self-rated oral health, subjective oral conditions, oral health behaviours, and OHRQoL among college students in eastern China. Making the most of their association can be a guide to radically improving the oral health of college students.

自评口腔健康状况、主观口腔状况、口腔健康行为和口腔健康相关生活质量（OHRQoL）之间的关联。

目的：评估中国大学生自评口腔健康状况、主观口腔状况、口腔健康行为和口腔健康相关生活质量（OHRQoL）之间的关系：邀请华东地区的大学生参与在线横断面调查。共纳入 1708 名参与者。构建了一个结构方程模型来解释和评估自评口腔健康、主观口腔状况、口腔健康行为和 OHRQoL 之间的关联：结果：自评口腔健康状况对主观口腔状况和 OHRQoL 有直接的积极影响。口腔健康行为对主观口腔状况和 OHRQoL 以及牙齿状况感知和口腔健康干预有直接的负面影响。主观口腔状况对 OHRQoL 有直接的积极影响。口腔健康行为与自评口腔健康之间存在正相关。此外，主观口腔状况对口腔健康行为对 OHRQoL 的影响以及自评口腔健康对 OHRQoL 的影响都有部分中介作用：结论：华东地区大学生的自评口腔健康状况、主观口腔状况、口腔健康行为和 OHRQoL 之间存在有影响的关联。结论：华东地区大学生的自评口腔健康状况、主观口腔状况、口腔健康行为和 OHRQoL 之间存在影响性关联，充分利用这些关联可以从根本上改善大学生的口腔健康状况。
