“…In 2010, the National Health Interview Survey found that African-American and Caucasian children age 2 to 17 years had similar rates of dental visits in the past year [1]. However, like our study, many other studies have found less dental care in African-American children and adults when compared with Caucasians [7][8][9][10][11][12].…”

“…A US study in 2010 found that 22% of children age 2 to 17 years had not seen a dentist in the past year and that 11% in that age group had never seen a dentist [1]. For over ten years, the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry and the American Academy of Pediatrics have recommended that infants should visit the dentist when the first tooth appears or no later than one year.…”

Background: It was postulated that parents would receive less preventive dental care than their children and that adults would receive more preventive dental care than parents. Other predictors were also explored. Methods: A convenience sample of adults and parents, presenting to the emergency department, answered questions about age, ethnicity, education, medical insurance, dental insurance, and preventive and emergency dental care in the past year. Parents answered similar questions for a child >3 years to <18 years. Parents were defined as living with their children <18 years. Significant univariate odds ratios based on group (adult, parent or child), age, ethnicity, education, medical insurance, dental insurance and emergency dental care were then analyzed using stepwise logistic regression. Results: Four independent predictors of preventive dental care were found. Adults and African-Americans received less preventive dental care while dental insurance and emergency dental care were associated with more preventive dental care. Conclusions: Emergency physicians can encourage preventive dental care for all patients especially adults, African-Americans and those receiving emergency dental care. Also, those without dental insurance can be assisted.

Vaccination in alternative settings, defined here as being outside of traditional primary care, can help address the pressing public health problem of low human papillomavirus vaccine coverage among adolescents in the United States. Pharmacies are promising because they are highly accessible and have well established immunization practices. However, pharmacies currently face policy and reimbursement challenges. School-located mass vaccination programs are also promising because of their high reach and demonstrated success in providing other vaccines, but control by local policymakers and challenges in establishing community partnerships complicate widespread implementation. Health centers in schools are currently too few to greatly increase access to human papillomavirus vaccine. Specialty clinics have experience with vaccination, but the older age of their patient populations limits their reach. Future steps to making alternative settings a success include expanding their use of statewide vaccine registries and improving their coordination with primary care providers.

“…52 Ainda em relação à temporalidade, somente um dos estudos foi do tipo longitudinal 26 . Houve estudos que compararam sucessivas análises transversais 10,21,26,26,30,34,35,40,42,46,48,51 , um estudo foi descrito como longitudinal do tipo antes e depois 36 e outro estudo descrito como longitudinal 45 , mas após a leitura completa dos textos foi constatado tratar-se de séries de estudos transversais. Portanto, há, nessa revisão, carência de estudos capazes de atribuir fatores causais à demanda por serviços odontológicos.…”

Estratégias Para Previsão Da Demanda Por Serviços Odontológicos: Uma Revisão Integrativa

Introdução: No Brasil, há disparidades em relação à oferta e à demanda por serviços odontológicos. Objetivo: O estudo buscou identificar, na literatura, as estratégias utilizadas para previsão da demanda por esses serviços. Metodologia:Trata-se de uma revisão integrativa conduzida de acordo com o método PRISMA. A expressão de busca (((forecast* OR “prediction” OR “prevision”) AND (“demand” OR trend*) AND (“dental services”))) foi aplicada em campos determinados para os repositórios Scopus Elsevier, Pubmed, BVS e IEEE Xplore. Resultados: As estratégias empregadas foram categorizadas conforme a temporalidade e o instrumento empregado no estudo. Foram selecionados 31 documentos, cujos resultados alcançados foram arranjados conforme a dependência da colaboração do paciente, a procedência de auto avaliações, o direcionamento a um grupo populacional ou demanda específica, e a relação com o setor público, privado ou ambos. As estratégias identificadas foram: estudos de temporalidade transversal em que o instrumento foi a aplicação de questionário; estudos de temporalidade transversal nos quais o instrumento foi a observação; e estudo de temporalidade longitudinal onde o instrumento foi a aplicação de questionário. Conclusões: A partir da exploração das estratégias identificadas na literatura foi demonstrada uma lacuna do conhecimento na esfera nacional. A análise dos artigos incluídos nessa revisão apresentou características desejáveis das avaliações da demanda por serviços odontológicos.

Racial Disparity Trends in Children’s Dental Visits: US National Health Interview Survey, 1964–2010

Abstract: We demonstrate a dramatic narrowing of African American/white disparities in 2 measures of children's receipt of dental services from 1964 to 2010. Yet, much more needs to be done before persistent racial disparities in children's oral health status are eliminated.
