Abstract

Background: Tooth brushing is effective in preventing early childhood caries. However, it is unclear how children's and caregiver's tooth brushing are reciprocally related.

Purpose: The current study investigated whether the longitudinal relationships between children and caregiver tooth brushing are moderated by a caregiver-targeted child oral health intervention and caregiver depression.

Methods: Secondary analysis of a randomized clinical trial that tested whether caregiver-targeted oral health text messages (OHT) outperformed child wellness text messages (CWT) on pediatric dental caries and oral health behaviors (n = 754, mean child age = 2.9 years, 56.2% Black, 68.3%

Results: Within-participants analyses revealed that caregiver tooth brushing at Months 4 and 12 positively predicted their child's tooth brushing at Months 12 and 24 for caregivers in the OHT condition with low depressive symptoms (i.e., moderation by depressive symptoms and condition). Similarly, children's tooth brushing at Month 4 positively predicted caregiver tooth brushing at Month 12 for caregivers in the OHT condition with low depressive symptoms. There were no significant associations among participants in the CWT condition, regardless of depressive symptoms.

Conclusions: Child and caregiver tooth brushing have reciprocal influences, but only for those in the OHT condition with low depressive symptoms.

未得到充分服务的儿童与其照顾者之间刷牙行为的纵向互惠关系。

背景：刷牙能有效预防儿童早期龋齿。目的：本研究调查了儿童刷牙与照顾者刷牙之间的纵向关系是否会受到以照顾者为目标的儿童口腔健康干预和照顾者抑郁的调节：方法：对一项随机临床试验进行二次分析，该试验测试了在儿童龋齿和口腔健康行为方面，以护理者为目标的口腔健康短信（OHT）是否优于儿童健康短信（CWT）（n = 754，儿童平均年龄 = 2.9 岁，56.2% 为黑人，68.3% 为黑人）：参与者内部分析表明，对于抑郁症状较轻的 OHT 条件下的照顾者而言，其子女在第 4 个月和第 12 个月的刷牙情况对其子女在第 12 个月和第 24 个月的刷牙情况有积极的预测作用（即抑郁症状和条件的调节作用）。同样，对于抑郁症状较轻的 OHT 条件下的照顾者而言，儿童在第 4 个月的刷牙情况对照顾者在第 12 个月的刷牙情况具有正向预测作用。在CWT条件下，无论抑郁症状如何，参与者之间都没有明显的关联：结论：儿童和照顾者刷牙具有相互影响的作用，但只适用于抑郁症状较轻的 OHT 条件下的照顾者。

期刊介绍： Annals of Behavioral Medicine aims to foster the exchange of knowledge derived from the disciplines involved in the field of behavioral medicine, and the integration of biological, psychosocial, and behavioral factors and principles as they relate to such areas as health promotion, disease prevention, risk factor modification, disease progression, adjustment and adaptation to physical disorders, and rehabilitation. To achieve these goals, much of the journal is devoted to the publication of original empirical articles including reports of randomized controlled trials, observational studies, or other basic and clinical investigations. Integrative reviews of the evidence for the application of behavioral interventions in health care will also be provided. .
