Individualizing recall intervals in child dental care.

Abstract:

:Individualizing and extending recall intervals for children have been recommended in Norway to target resources efficiently. Recall intervals were changed for children aged 3-18 years in Drammen from 1991. Clinical time spent by dentists and dental hygienists, dental health status and length of recall intervals were registered from 1990 to 1993. For the child population, the mean recall interval changed from 12.5 to 13.7 months and the annual time spent per child was reduced by 14% from 1990-91 to 1992-93. Adjusted for the decline in number of new decayed teeth, the reduction in time spent was 11%. Children with intervals of 17 to 20 months had fewer new decayed teeth and their care required less personnel time than other children. For children with new decayed teeth, time spent for dental care was not associated with recall interval, while for children without new decayed teeth, longer recall intervals were associated with shorter time for dental care. The variation in number of decayed teeth and time spent for dental care was substantial at all intervals. Individualizing and extending recall intervals to some extent targeted resources at children with more dental disease. However, in the short run, inequality in dental health persisted. Limited extension of recall intervals did not interrupt the long-term trend toward better dental health in the children and substantial resources were saved in the dental services.
