Abstract

OBJECTIVE The aims were to explore the trend in basic oral treatment needs and total operating cost of public dental services (PDS) in relation to total excise tax revenue generated from sugary products during 2011-2020 and to evaluate the impact of tax policy in excise tax revenue of sugary products and average sugar consumption. METHODS The study comprised longitudinal data retrieved from Finnish registries during the years 2011-2020. Basic oral treatment needs, and total operating cost of PDS, total excise tax revenue generated from sugary products and average sugar consumed (kg per capita) during the years 2011-2020 were obtained. Simplified panel analyses and sensitivity analyses were used to evaluate the effects of explanatory variables on outcomes. Results: An approximate one EUR 1,000,000 increase in total excise tax revenue generated from sugary products corresponds to a 0.4% increase in total operating cost of PDS. There was a significant positive trend in total operating cost of PDS in Finland over the study period. Similarly, an approximate one EUR 1,000,000 rise in total excise tax revenue corresponds to a 0.2% increase in basic oral treatment needs. Additionally, there was a statistically significant difference in the average excise tax revenue for sugary products between the periods before and after 2017. CONCLUSION No change in average sugar consumption was observed despite implementing the new sugar policy. Therefore, it may be worthwhile to reconsider the excise tax on sweets and ice cream as it will significantly increase the total national revenues.

芬兰与甜食、冰淇淋和含糖饮料税收有关的基本口腔治疗需求趋势：一项基于登记的研究。

目的探讨2011-2020年间基本口腔治疗需求和公共牙科服务（PDS）总运营成本与含糖产品消费税总收入的关系，并评估税收政策对含糖产品消费税收入和平均糖消费量的影响。数据包括基本口腔治疗需求、公共卫生服务总运营成本、含糖产品消费税总收入以及 2011-2020 年间的平均糖消费量（人均千克）。简化面板分析和敏感性分析用于评估解释变量对结果的影响。结果：含糖产品产生的消费税总收入每增加约 100 万欧元，PDS 的总运营成本就会增加 0.4%。在研究期间，芬兰公共营养服务的总运营成本呈明显的正增长趋势。同样，消费税总收入每增加约100万欧元，基本口腔治疗需求就会增加0.2%。此外，2017 年之前和之后，含糖产品的平均消费税收入在统计上存在显著差异。因此，可能值得重新考虑对糖果和冰淇淋征收消费税，因为这将显著增加国家总收入。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
