Abstract

Objective: Adopting correct body postures is extremely essential in preventing future musculoskeletal disorders in Dentists. The aim of this study was to evaluate the body posture of general and specialist dentists to find awkward body postures, badly postured body parts and the risk of developing future MSDs. Methods: Stratified sampling method was used to recruit 224 dentists in Kerman and Mashhad. The most frequently adopted body posture was selected and based on Rapid Entire Body Assessment (REBA) method, scores were given to the angulation of different body parts. T-test and ANOVA test were performed to analyze the data. Results: About 10% of dentists had a REBA score which showed a high or very high risk of developing MSDs. Specialists and general dentists were not different in terms of REBA score. Among different specialties, periodontists had the highest REBA score. Overall, forearms and neck had the highest REBA score. Conclusion: General dentists and all dental specialties (except operative dentists) were at moderate risk of developing MSDs. Periodontists were at higher risk of developing MSDs. Based on REBA, the forearm and the neck were the most badly postured body parts.

Abstract

Tooth decay is a widespread disease with considerable financial and psychological costs. Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate dental health of a large sample of people covered by rural insurance program in Kerman province. Methods: A sample size of 5000 was determined among people living in villages and towns with a population of less than 20000 who are all covered by dental rural insurance program. The DMFT/dmft index was assessed in five target age groups using the WHO oral health measurement standard form. Demographic and socioeconomic status of participants was also recorded. The percentage of people in need of immediate treatment was also recorded. STATA software version 14. Regression analysis and chi square tests were used for further data analysis. Results: Questionnaires of 3248 participants qualified to enter the study. The least mean DMFT score was related to the 12 year target group (3.1 ± 2.7) and the 65-74 year target group revealed the highest mean DMFT score (20.8 ± 12.2). In most target groups, the decayed component of DMFT/dmft index contributed the most to the overall score. DMFT index revealed an increase compared to the results of 2012 survey. Overall, 8.3 percent of individuals were in need of immediate treatment. Tooth brushing status and the use of fluoridated toothpaste was related to lower DMFT/dmft scores. Conclusion: Despite the rural dental insurance coverage, the DMFT/ dmft has not decreased in this more deprived population of Kerman province. An evaluation of this program is needed to detect possible defaults. Dental health education with a special emphasis on toothbrushing with a fluoride containing toothpaste can help improve dental health.

Abstract

Objective: This study aimed to determine patients’ positive and negative personality traits in relation to treatment satisfaction and oral health-related quality of life (OHRQOL) in patients who have received dental implant-supported prosthesis. Methods: This study was carried out on 135 adults above the age of 30 who had received reasonable implant treatment and prosthesis in the last 1–24 months in a private and a public dental office. Data collection was carried out using a questionnaire, which was sent to patients via WhatsApp and email. Also, the Persian version of the Oral Health Impact Profile 14 and the Positive Affect Negative Affect Scale were used to collect data related to OHRQOL and personality profiles. A Likert scale was also used to obtain the treatment satisfaction level. Results: Among 135 participants, most reported good oral hygiene and positive affect, with 62.7% rating their oral health as good and a mean PANAS score indicating an overall positive emotional state. Oral health-related quality of life was linked to tooth brushing and self-rated oral health, while satisfaction with implants was influenced by education and emotional affect. Conclusions: Overall, negative personality traits increased the chance of not being satisfied after an implant-supported prosthesis. Meanwhile, people with more positive personality traits had a better chance of being satisfied. Personality traits were not associated with OHRQOL.
