DOI: 10.5177/ntvt.2020.02.19088 Bladzijden: 109-117
In dit vierde artikel in een reeks van 5 naar aanleiding van het Kies-voor-Tandenonderzoek 2017, worden de resultaten van de 17-jarigen samengevat. Van de 17-jarigen had 34% een gaaf blijvend gebit. Er waren in 2017 nog mondgezondheidsverschillen tussen de sociaal-economische groepen waarbij de hoge sociaal-economische groep in het voordeel was. De mondgezondheid van de 17-jarigen was de afgelopen 6 jaar gestagneerd en lijkt op sommige indicatoren zelfs te verslechteren. Daarnaast is het slecht gesteld met de kennis over het tandheelkundige verzekeringsstelsel na de achttiende verjaardag. De conclusie is dat mondgezondheid van de 17-jarigen de afgelopen jaren niet is verbeterd. Deze trend dient te worden gevolgd door monitoringsonderzoek. Daarnaast dienen interventies ter verbetering van mondgezondheid, kennis en gedrag van adolescenten te worden opgezet en geëvalueerd.
Kies-voor-Tanden Study: caries among 17-year-olds in the Netherlands
This fourth in a series of 5 articles in the context of the 2017 Kies-voor-Tanden study presents the results for 17-year-olds. 34% of the 17-year-olds had flawless permanent teeth. In 2017, there were still differences in oral health among the socio-economic groups, to the advantage of the high socio-economic group. The oral health of 17-year-olds had stagnated during the previous 6 years and even appeared to be deteriorating according to some indicators. In addition, knowledge about the dental insurance system after the 18th birthday was poor. Conclusion: The oral health of 17-year-olds had not improved in the previous years. This trend must be followed by monitoring research. In addition, interventions to improve the oral health, knowledge and behaviour of adolescents should be set up and evaluated
