Only individuals who reported having used dental services were included. FD was defined as having ≥21 teeth, based on self-reported tooth loss in the maxillary and mandibular arches. Variables included sex, age, education (years of study), and per capita family income (measured in minimum wages). Dental service utilization was assessed using the question \"When was the last time you visited a dentist?\" with responses dichotomized into \">1 year\" and \"≤1 year\". Absolute and relative inequalities in FD were assessed using the slope index of inequality (SII) and the relative index of inequality (RII), respectively, based on education and income. Generalized linear models (log-binomial regression) were applied with a logarithmic link function to estimate RII (rate ratios) and an identity link function to estimate SII (rate differences), adjusting for sex and age. Trends between 2013 and 2019 and differences in SII and RII by dental service utilization were assessed through two-way interaction terms in the models.
