Social determinants of health are associated with molar-incisor hypomineralization (MIH): Results from a cross-sectional study in Bavaria, Germany
This population-based study investigated the associations between Molar Incisor Hypomineralization (MIH), caries, and the social determinants of health represented by a family’s socioeconomic status (SES), regional Gross Domestic Product (GDP), and regional population density in 8- to 10-year-olds from Bavaria, Germany.
A total of 5418 children from 87 randomly selected schools were clinically examined. Parental questionnaires were distributed to collect information on the families’ SES, and 1315 questionnaires (representing the subsample) were available. Regional GDP and population density data were retrieved from official databases. The data were analysed using marginalized zero-inflated negative binomial regression, and Incidence Rate Ratios (IRR) and adjusted Odds Ratios (aOR) were determined.
In the subsample (aged 9.7 ± 0.6 years, 47 % female), the prevalence rates of MIH and caries in the primary (idmft > 0) and permanent dentitions (IDMFT > 0) were 20.0 %, 33.0 %, and 14.6 %, respectively. Regression analyses revealed that the SES (IRR: 1.14 (1.02 – 1.27)), GDP (IRR: 2.58 (1.34 – 5.00); aOR: 5.23 (3.74 – 7.32)), and population density (IRR: 1.27 (1.11 – 1.45); aOR: 1.30 (1.14 – 1.48)) were significantly associated with MIH. Significant trends were observed between the SES (IRR: 0.90 (0.85 – 0.96); aOR: 0.90 (0.82 – 0.98)), GDP (IRR: 1.52 (1.77 – 1.96); aOR: 2.82 (1.80 – 4.42)), and population density (aOR: 1.13 (1.03 – 1.25)) and caries. Similar trends were observed in the data from the total sample.
The results revealed consistent positive associations between MIH and the social determinants of health. These findings challenge conventional assumptions about oral health disparities, as MIH was more prevalent in more prosperous, rather than disadvantaged populations.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Dentistry has an open access mirror journal The Journal of Dentistry: X, sharing the same aims and scope, editorial team, submission system and rigorous peer review.
The Journal of Dentistry is the leading international dental journal within the field of Restorative Dentistry. Placing an emphasis on publishing novel and high-quality research papers, the Journal aims to influence the practice of dentistry at clinician, research, industry and policy-maker level on an international basis.
Topics covered include the management of dental disease, periodontology, endodontology, operative dentistry, fixed and removable prosthodontics, dental biomaterials science, long-term clinical trials including epidemiology and oral health, technology transfer of new scientific instrumentation or procedures, as well as clinically relevant oral biology and translational research.
The Journal of Dentistry will publish original scientific research papers including short communications. It is also interested in publishing review articles and leaders in themed areas which will be linked to new scientific research. Conference proceedings are also welcome and expressions of interest should be communicated to the Editor.
