摘要

导言：日本已经实施了一项公共口腔健康筛查--牙周病筛查，但筛查是否会鼓励人们随后定期看牙医仍不清楚。本研究旨在采用差异法（DID）研究接受牙周病筛查的人在接受筛查后是否比接受筛查前更有可能定期去看牙医：本研究使用了2017年或2018年接受牙周病筛查的城市居民的医疗报销数据。对于每个筛查对象，从未曾接受筛查的人群中抽取 4 人作为对照。在DID分析中，我们评估了接受筛查后每180 d至少看一次牙医的比例变化：共有 4,050 名参与者参与了分析。在整个研究期间，未接受筛查的参与者看牙医的比例保持一致（约 45%）。然而，在接受筛查的参与者中，虽然筛查前看牙医的比例一致（约 60%），但筛查后看牙医的比例更高（筛查后 1-180 d，81.2%）。DID 分析表明，筛查后看牙医的比例增加了 12.9%。此外，年龄分组的 DID 估计值在年轻人群中更高（20-35 岁，13.9%；40-55 岁，12.8%；60 岁，12.6%）：结论：在接受牙周病筛查的人群中，接受筛查后去看牙医的比例高于筛查前，这表明牙周病筛查与后续定期看牙医次数的增加有关：我们的研究结果提供了证据，证明公共口腔健康筛查可以增加定期看牙医的人数，这有可能改善和维护人们的口腔健康，尤其是在年轻人群中。

Public Periodontal Screening Increases Subsequent Regular Dental Visits: The Life Study.

Introduction: A public oral health screening, periodontal disease screening, has been implemented in Japan, but it remains unclear whether screening encourages subsequent regular dental visits. This study aimed to examine whether people who underwent periodontal disease screening were more likely to regularly visit dentists after undergoing the screening than before using a difference-in-differences (DID) approach.

Methods: This study used health care claims data of municipality residents who underwent periodontal disease screening in 2017 or 2018. For each screening recipient, 4 individuals were extracted from those who did not undergo screening as controls. In the DID analysis, we assessed the change in the proportion of dentist visits at least once every 180 d after undergoing screening.

Results: A total of 4,050 participants were included in the analysis. The proportion of participants visiting dentists was consistent throughout the study period (approximately 45%) among the participants who did not undergo the screening. However, among the participants who underwent the screening, while the proportion who visited dentists was consistent before screening (approximately 60%), the proportion was higher after screening (1-180 d after, 81.2%). DID analysis indicated that the proportion increased by 12.9% after the screening. In addition, the age-subgroup DID estimates were higher in the younger population (aged 20-35 y, 13.9%; 40-55 y, 12.8%; 60 y, 12.6%).

Conclusions: Among people who underwent periodontal disease screening, a higher proportion visited dentists after undergoing the screening than before, suggesting that periodontal disease screening was associated with an increase in subsequent regular dental visits.

Knowledge transfer statement: Our results provide evidence that a public oral health screening could increase regular dental visits, which has the potential to improve and maintain people's oral health, especially in the younger population.
