pubmed:abstractText |
The authors designed a pilot study to examine issues that affect women's oral health. They found a substantial lack of awareness regarding important oral health issues, and that 44 percent of the participants reportedly did not have regular dental care. High perceived dental need was reported concurrently with low dental care attendance. Additionally, reported lack of dental insurance and self-perception of low income and of poor dental health were important explanatory factors for the women who reportedly did not have regular dental care.
