Abstract

The purpose of this study was to assess how mothers' oral health behaviour, knowledge, and sociodemographi characteristics influence on dental caries status of their children. The 110 children and their mothers were selected for this study. The children were 5 or 6 years old in the 3 daycare centers in Daegu, Korea. Data were collected by oral examination on children and self-administrated questionnaire on their mothers. The questionnaire was surveyed mothers' behaviour and knowledge of oral health and their socio-demographic characteristics. The findings of this study were summarized as follows; 1. Significant difference was detected for children's ds index according to mothers' educational level and child birth order. 2. Mothers' tooth brushing frequency, preventive dental visit, and oral health knowledge were significantly related to children's dental caries status. 3. The multiple regression analysis illustrated that mothers' preventive dental visit and child birth order were significantly associated with the children's ds index, respectively. It supposed that mothers' preventive dental visit played an important role in decreasing children's tooth decay and that the not eldest group of children had higher risk of dental caries than the eldest one.
