A Research on The Use of Preventive Oral and Dental Health Services

Year 2019, Volume: 8 Issue: 3, 277 - 288, 30.09.2019

Abstract

The commonly used model about the use of health services is behavioral model developed by Andersen. According to this model, the use of an individual's health service is affected by predisposing factors (demographic characteristics, social structure, etc.), enabling factors (income level, health insurance, etc.) and need factors (health status assessment etc.) This study aims to investigate the use of oral and dental health services for individuals who live in Isparta province and the factors affecting it. In the study, 242 people were reached using the convenience sampling method. As a data collection tool, the questionnaire was developed based on the studies in the literature which focused on the use of preventive dentistry and socio-demographic characteristics of participants. SPSS 22.0 package program was used for data analysis. The frequency analysis for descriptive statistics in data analysis and chi-square test determining the factors that affect preventive dentistry services are used. The results of the study indicate that majority of the participants (66%) did not use oral and dental health services for preventive purposes. Also, the use of preventive oral and dental health services is mainly associated with enabling and need factors.

Abstract

Bireyin sağlık hizmeti kullanımı ile ilgili yaygın
olarak kullanılan model Andersen’ın geliştirmiş olduğu davranışsal modeldir. Bu
modele göre bireyin sağlık hizmeti kullanımı hazırlayıcı faktörler (demografik
özellikler, sosyal yapı vb.), kolaylaştırıcı faktörler (gelir düzeyi, sağlık
güvencesi vb.) ve ihtiyaç faktörlerinden (sağlık durumunu değerlendirme vb.)
etkilenmektedir. Bu çalışma, Isparta’da ikamet eden bireylerin koruyucu amaçlı
ağız ve diş sağlığı hizmetleri kullanımlarını ve bunu etkileyen faktörleri
araştırmayı amaçlamaktadır. Çalışmada kolayda örnekleme yöntemi kullanılarak
242 kişiye ulaşılmıştır. Veri toplama aracı olarak literatürde yer alan
çalışmalardan yararlanılarak oluşturulan anket, katılımcıların koruyucu diş
hekimliği kullanımlarını, sosyo-demografik özelliklerini içermektedir.
Verilerin analizi için SPSS 22.0 paket programı kullanılmıştır. Verilerin
analizinde tanımlayıcı istatistikler için frekans analizi, koruyucu diş
hekimliği hizmetlerini etkileyen faktörlerin belirlenmesinde ki-kare testi
kullanılmıştır. Çalışma sonucunda, katılımcıların çoğunluğunun (%66) koruyucu
amaçlı ağız ve diş sağlığı hizmetlerini kullanmadıkları ortaya çıkmıştır.
Ayrıca, koruyucu amaçlı ağız ve diş sağlığı hizmeti kullanımının ağırlıklı
olarak kolaylaştırıcı ve ihtiyaç faktörleri ile ilişkili olduğu tespit
edilmiştir.
