Introduction.
Several population studies have addressed oral health inequalities.
Edentulism, functional dentition, and number of remaining teeth have been associated with different socioeconomic level measurements.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between educational level and tooth loss in the Chilean population aged 15 years and above, based on the 2016-2017 National Health Survey (ENS 2016-2017).
Material and Methods.
The sample for this cross-sectional study comprised 5473 subjects.
The main independent variable was educational level (LEL: low, MEL: medium, and HEL: high).
To measure tooth loss, we considered the variables number of remaining teeth, edentulism, and functional dentition.
We used logistic regressions to assess the condition of dentition according to the subject’s EL.
As to the number of teeth variable, linear regressions were conducted.
The analyses were carried out considering the complex sampling design in SPSS 24.0.
Results.
When comparing LEL subjects with HEL subjects, the adjusted difference in number of remaining teeth was 3.11 for the maxilla and 1.72 for the mandible.
An individual with LEL had a 7.51 [3.50–16.10] and 6.06 [2.68–13.68] times higher risk of upper edentulism and lower edentulism than a HEL individual, respectively.
Regarding functional dentition, the adjusted OR in HEL subjects was 13.33 [8.02–22.15] and in MEL subjects was 2.81 [2.03–3.87], compared to LEL results.
Conclusions.
LEL was associated with a significant tooth loss in the Chilean population.
Subjects with LEL obtained a lower mean of number of remaining teeth and higher prevalence of edentulism and nonfunctional dentition.
