The objective of this study was to assess the association between socio-economic status (SES) and oral health-related behaviours in Korean adolescents, using the Family Affluence Scale (FAS). A second objective was to assess the influences of other factors (pocket money, school type, family structure and psychological factors) on the association. Cross-sectional data were from the national 2007 Korean Youth Risk Behavior Web-based Survey. Oral health-related behaviours included health-enhancing behaviours (frequency of toothbrushing and dental visits) and health-compromising behaviours (smoking, and frequency of intake of soft drinks and confectionery). Logistic regression models were used. Family affluence had a linear association with health-enhancing behaviours and had a roughly U-shaped association in health-compromising behaviours. After adjusting for a number of variables, the linear association with health-enhancing behaviours persisted. The U-shaped association with health-compromising behaviours remained but was partly attenuated and flattened. In addition, we found a marked influence of school type and family structure and pocket money on the association between FAS and oral health-compromising behaviours. The findings indicate that health-enhancing behaviours of adolescents were strongly associated with family affluence, but health-compromising behaviours were more strongly linked to other factors than family affluence. | ||
