Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:The aim of this study was to analyze the relationship between oral health behaviors and general health behaviors in adults. METHODS:A total of 2,467 adults (1,208 men and 1,259 women aged 20-59 years) who consulted dentists in Chiba City were administered a questionnaire. RESULTS:Women, older participants, and those living with family had better health behaviors than the other subjects studied. Additive indices for oral and general health behaviors were significantly correlated. Toothbrushing frequency was significantly correlated with five items of general health behavior (smoking, drinking, exercise, eating breakfast, and having medical check-ups). Having dental check-ups was significantly correlated with having medical check-ups. There was a negative correlation between dental flossing and drinking. CONCLUSIONS:Of all oral health behaviors examined, toothbrushing frequency was the most predictive indicator of general health behavior.
