Abstract

Unlabelled: The aim was to study the prevalence and distribution of number of teeth, number of intact and decayed teeth and prevalence and distribution of removable dentures and periodontal disease over 25 years 1983-2008. Two cross-sectional studies (EpiWux) were performed in the County of Dalarna, Sweden in 1983 and 2008. In the 1983 study a random sample of 1012 individuals were invited to participate in this epidemiological and clinical study and 1440 individuals in 2008. A total number of 1695 individuals, stratified into geographical areas (rural and urban areas), in the age groups 35, 50, 65 and 75 answered a questionnaire and were also clinically and radiographically examined.The number of edentulous individuals decreased from 15% in 1983 to 3% in 2008. Number of teeth increased from 22.7 in 1983 to 24.2 in 2008 and decayed surfaces per tooth showed a three-time reduction over this period of time. As a consequence of better oral status the prevalence of complete removable dentures in both jaws decreased from 15% in 1983 to 2% in 2008. Individuals with moderate periodontitis decreased from 45% in 1983 to 16% in 2008.

Conclusion: Covering a period of 25 years the present study can report dramatic improvements in all aspects of dental status that were investigated.This is encouraging for dental care professionals, but will not necessarily lead to less demand for dental care in the future as the population is aging with a substantial increase in number of teeth.

1983年和2008年瑞典达拉那县35-75岁成人口腔状况的比较
未标记:目的是研究1983-2008年25年间牙齿数量、完整牙齿和腐烂牙齿数量以及活动假牙和牙周病的患病率和分布情况。两项横断面研究(EpiWux)于1983年和2008年在瑞典达拉那县进行。在1983年的研究中,随机抽取了1012人参加了这项流行病学和临床研究,2008年邀请了1440人。共有1695人,按地理区域(农村和城市地区)分层,年龄分别为35岁、50岁、65岁和75岁,他们回答了一份调查问卷,并进行了临床和放射检查。无牙个体的数量从1983年的15%下降到2008年的3%。牙齿数目由1983年的22.7颗增加至2008年的24.2颗,而每颗牙齿的蛀牙面在此期间减少了三倍。由于口腔状况的改善,双颌全活动义齿的使用率从1983年的15%下降到2008年的2%。中度牙周炎患者的比例从1983年的45%下降到2008年的16%。结论:本研究涵盖了25年的时间,报告了所调查的牙齿状况的各个方面的显著改善。这对牙科保健专业人员来说是令人鼓舞的,但随着人口老龄化和牙齿数量的大幅增加,未来对牙科保健的需求不一定会减少。
