Overview

Cross-sectional analysis of oral health disparities in a rural population, highlighting dental service usage and sociodemographic influences.

Key Points

  • Worse self-perception of oral health was prevalent in men aged 40–59 with curative dental service usage.
  • Lower rates of remaining teeth were observed among elderly women and the wealthiest income quintile.
  • Adults with higher education and recent dental service usage had more remaining teeth.
  • Focus on preventive measures and equitable access to dental services is essential for rural health improvement.
