背景:母亲通常在抚养孩子和发展与健康相关的行为中起主要作用。本研究旨在评估母亲和儿童牙齿焦虑与口腔卫生状况之间的关系。
方法:该研究包括305名儿童,4-12岁,第一次来看牙医的人和他们的母亲。所有人口统计学和口腔卫生信息均通过问卷收集。使用改良牙科焦虑量表(MDAS)和Venham图片测试(VPT)评估母亲和儿童的牙科焦虑,分别。对母亲和孩子进行了口腔检查,和他们的PI,GI,并记录DMFT评分。
结果:尽管MDAS和VPT之间的相关性在8-12岁的儿童中呈正相关且强,但在4-7岁的儿童中呈正相关,但较弱。检测到母亲的PI之间存在显著关系,GI,DMFT,和孩子的VPT分数。根据母亲的牙齿焦虑,PI无统计学差异,GI,以及4至7岁儿童的dmft值。在8-12岁的儿童中,发现母亲的牙科焦虑与儿童的DMFT之间存在中等正统计学意义的关系。
结论:儿童牙科焦虑受母亲牙科焦虑的显著影响,母亲经历的治疗后并发症,以及母亲的口腔健康状况。

BACKGROUND: Mothers usually have the primary role in raising children and developing health-related behaviors. This study aims to evaluate the relationship between dental anxiety and oral hygiene status of mothers and children\'s dental anxiety and gingival health.
METHODS: The study included 305 children, aged 4-12 years, who came to the dentist for the first time and their mothers. All the demographic and oral hygiene information were collected through a questionnaire. The dental anxiety of the mothers and children was assessed using the Modified Dental Anxiety Scale (MDAS) and Venham Picture Test (VPT), respectively. The oral examination of the mother and children was performed, and their PI, GI, and DMFT scores were recorded.
RESULTS: While the correlation between MDAS and VPT was positive and strong in children aged 8-12, it was positive but weak in the 4-7 age group. A significant relationship was detected between the mother\'s PI, GI, DMFT, and the child\'s VPT score. According to the mothers\' dental anxiety, there were no statistically significant differences in PI, GI, and dmft values in children aged between 4 to 7. A moderately positive and statistically significant relationship between maternal dental anxiety and children\'s DMFT was identified in children aged 8-12.
CONCLUSIONS: Children\'s dental anxiety was significantly influenced by maternal dental anxiety, post-treatment complications experienced by the mother, and the oral health status of the mother.
