- The aim of the this study was to present data on oral care habits and knowledge of oral health in 2013, and to compare these data with results from a series of four previous cross-sectional epidemiological studies. All these studies were carried out in the city ofionkoping, Sweden, in 1973,1983,1993, 2003, and 2o13.The 1973 study constituted a random sample of L000 individuals evenly distributed in the age groups 3, 5,10,15, 20, 30,40, 50, 6o, and 7o yea rs.The same age groups with addition of a group of 8o-year-olds were included in the 1983,1993, 2003, and 2013 studies, which comprised 1,104;1,078; 987; and 1,010 individuals, respectively. A questionnaire about dental care habits and knowledge of oral health was used. The questionnaire contained the same questions in all the five studies, although some had to be slightly modernised during the 40-year period. During the period 1973-2013, a continous increase of individuals in the age group 20-6o years were treated by the Public Dental Service amounting to about 5o%. Almost 7o% of the 70- and 80-year-olds were treated by private practitioners. In 2013,10-20% of the individuals in the age groups 30-40 years did not regularly visit neither Public Dental Service nor a private practitioner.The corresponding figures for the individuals 50-80 years old were 4-7%. Similar number of avoidance was reported in the previous studies. In the survey 2013, about 20-30% of the individuals in the age groups 20-50 felt frightened, sick, or ill at ease at the prospect of an appointment with the dentist.These findings were in agreement with the results from the surveys 1973-2003. Among the younger age groups, 10-15 years, a reduction in self-reported "ill at ease" was found in the surveys 2003 and 2013 compared to the previous surveys in this series. In 2013, the knowledge of the etiology of caries was known by about 6o% of the individuals which was similar to that reported 1973 zoo3.Twenty per cent of the individuals stated that they did not know which etiological factors that causes caries.This percentage was equivalent during the period 1973-2013. About 85% of the individuals in all age groups brushed their teeth with fluoride tooth paste at least two times a day.These frequencies have gradually increased during the 40-year period. Around 40% in the age groups 50-8o years used toothpicks regularly in 2013.This is a about 1/3-1/2 less compared to 2003. In the age groups 20-40 years 3-14% used toothpicks for proximal cleaning in 2013. In 2013, about 35% of the individuals never consumed soft drinks, in comparison with 20% in 2003. In the age groups 3-20 years about 20% were consuming soft drinks every day or several times a week, which is a reduction by half compared to 2013

- The aim of this epidemiological study performed in 2013 was to analyze various clinical and radiographic data on oral health and compare the results to those of four cross-sectional studies carried out 1973-2003. In 1973,1983,1993,2003, and 2013 random samples of 1,000;1,104;1,078; 987; and 1,010 individuals, respectively, were studied. The individuals were evenly distributed in the age groups 3,5,10,15, 20,30,40,50, 60,70, and 8o years. Eighty-year-olds were not included in 1973. All subjects were inhabitants of the city of Jonkoping, Sweden.The clinical and radiographic examination assessed edentulousness, removable dentures, implants, number of teeth, caries, restorations, oral hygiene, calculus, periodontal status, and endodontic treatment.The frequency of edentulous individuals aged 40-70 years was 16,12, 8,1, and 0.3% in 1973,1983,1993, 2003, and 2013, respectively. No complete denture wearer younger than 80-years old was found in 2013. During the 40-year period, the mean number of teeth in the age groups 30-80 years increased. In 2013, the 60-year-olds had nearly complete dentitions. Implants were found in all age groups from 30 years of age. The total number of individuals with implants was 36 in 2013.This was higher than earlier surveys,4 in 1993, and 18 in 2003.The percentage of children and adults without caries and restorations increased during the 40-year period. It was found that the percentage of caries-free 3- and 5-year-olds were 79% and 69%, respectively, of the individuals in 2013. In the age groups 10-20 years, the percentage of caries-free individuals increased between 2003 and 2013. In 2013,43% of the 15-year-olds were completely free from caries and restorations compared to 20% in 2003. In all age groups 5-60 years, DFS was lower in 2013 compared to the earlier examinations. There was no major change in DFS between 2003 and 2013 in the age groups 70 and 80 years. The most obvious change was the decrease in number of FS over the 40 year period of time. Regarding crowned teeth the most clear changes between 1973 to 2013 were the decrease in percentage of crowned teeth in the age goups 4o and 50-year-olds. The percentage of endodontically treated teeth decreased between 1973 and 2013 in all age groups.In age groups-Jo-30-year-olds a major reduction from about 3o% to 15% in mean plaque score was seen between 1973-2003. Only a minor change in plaque score was seen during the last decade. For the age groups 40 years and older, a decrease in the percentage of surfaces with plaque was observed between 2003-2o13.The percentage of tooth sites with gingivitis was for zo years and older about 4o% in 1973. In 2013, the percentage was about15%. The frequency of sites with gingivitis was generally lower in 2013 compared with the other years:1973-1993.The percentage of individuals with probing pocket depths >4mm increased with age. Between 2003-2013 a clear reduction was seen in all age groups in frequency of individuals with probing pocket depth >4mm. Over the 40-year period an increase in the number of individuals with no marginal bone loss and a decrease in the number of subjects with moderate alveolar bone loss were seen.The continuous improvement in oral health and the reduced need of restorative treatment will seriously affect the provision of dental helath care and dental delivery system in the near future.

Relationships between psychosocialwork environmental factors, personality, physical work demands and workload in a group of Swedish dentists

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The aim of the study was to investigate, in a group of 77 Swedish dentists (36 males, 41 females) working in dental clinics, possible effects of psychosocial work environmental factors, personality traits, and social desirability tendencies on their reporting of their workload and of the physical demands placed on them.Participants were given questionnaires for assessing their workload, the physical and psychosocial demands of their job, their social support at work, and their control over their work situation, using a 10-cm visual analogue scale (V.A.S.). The Eysenck Personality Questionnaire (EPQ) was also given to assess neuroticism and extraversion and the Marlowe-Crown SD-scale to measure tendencies to answer questions in a socially desirable manner.As in two earlier studies of ours, very high assessments were made of workload, physical work demands and social support. Higher assessments of workload and of physical work demands were found in those assessing the psychosocial work demands placed on them to be higher. Those assessing the work load of their job as higher also considered themselves to have less control over their work situation and were less extraverted.Despite these dentists perceiving themselves as being faced with a stressful work situation involving a high workload, strong physical and psychosocial demands being placed on them and their having a low degree of control over their work situation, the high degree of social support they experienced may have made their work situation less stressful.
