dc.description.abstract | Background: The aim of this study was to investigate the association between early-life family income and dental pain
experience from childhood to early adulthood.
Methods: Data came from a 14-year prospective study (1991/1992–2005/2006) carried out in South Australia, which
included children and adolescents aged 4–17 years (N = 9875) at baseline. The outcome was dental pain experience
obtained at baseline, 14 years later in adulthood and at a middle point of time. The main explanatory variable was
early-life family income collected at baseline.
Results: The prevalence of dental pain was 22.8% at baseline, 19.3% at ‘middle time’ and 39.3% at follow up. The proportion
of people classified as ‘poor’ at baseline was 27.7%. Being poor early in life was significantly associated with
dental pain at 14-year follow up (odds ratio = 1.45; 95% confidence interval = 1.27–1.66).
Conclusions: Early-life relative poverty is associated with more frequent dental pain across the 14-year follow up and
may be a key exposure variable for later dental conditions. | |
