Abstract Oral health status and dental care utilization is strongly associated with social and behavioral factors and health outcomes. The five papers in this symposium address how several of these factors affect oral health and dental care among diverse groups of older adults. Using data from the Health and Retirement Study, the first paper examined the impact of early childhood disadvantages on oral health in later life among adults age 51 and above in the U.S. The second paper used large-scale epidemiological data that addressed the relationship between acculturation and subsequent oral health problems. It also tested the moderating role of neighborhood disorder in such a relationship among older Chinese Americans. The third paper demonstrated the importance of examining different pathways among foreign-born and native-born Chinese older adults with regard to offspring’s support on their oral health outcomes. While increasing evidence shows that cognitive function is associated with oral health, limited studies have been conducted to examine the impact of cognitive impairment, e.g., Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) and related dementias (RD), on dental care utilization and costs in older adults. The fourth paper aimed to address this knowledge gap. Results showed that AD and RD had different impacts on different types of dental care utilization and costs. The fifth paper further displayed that individuals with cognitive impairment face a significant challenge in handling dental-related medications. This symposium provides policy and clinical implications on improving oral health and dental care utilization among older adults in the U.S. Oral Health Interest Group Sponsored Symposium.

Objectives: Access to routine dental services is important to maintaining good oral health. The aims of this study were to describe the dental care utilization patterns of a diverse group of Hispanic/Latino men and women and assess differences in dental care utilization by perceived need for dental care and proxy measures of acculturation. Methods: Data from 13,792 participants of the Hispanic Community Health Study were analyzed with SAS 9.4. Time since last dental visit was dichotomized into <1 and ≥1 y. Acculturation measures included the language and social subscales of the Short Acculturation Scale for Hispanics, the Multiethnic Study of Atherosclerosis nativity subscore, and immigrant generation. Survey logistic regression adjusted for demographic (age and sex) and health-related variables, estimated associations among perceived need for dental care, acculturation measures, and dental care utilization. Results: About a quarter (23%) of the participants were born in the 50 US states, excluding territories, while 77% were non–US born. Overall, 74% perceived a need for dental care. Upon covariate adjustment, perceiving a need for dental care was associated with reduced odds of reporting a past-year dental visit (odds ratio, 0.32; 95% CI, 0.28 to 0.37), while there appeared to be no meaningful association between proxy measures of acculturation and past-year dental visit. Having health insurance was significantly associated with a past-year dental visit (odds ratio, 2.23; 95% CI, 1.99 to 2.49) for all groups combined and among the different Hispanic/Latino background groups. Conclusions: Acculturation affects general health and contributes to general health disparities; however, its role in dental care utilization remains questionable. Given that acculturation is a process that occurs over several years, longitudinal studies that evaluate oral health trajectories along the acculturation continuum are needed. Knowledge Transfer Statement: The results of this study are valuable for dental public health program planning and implementation for minority groups, as it describes the varying patterns of dental care utilization among US-born and non–US born Hispanics/Latinos and identifies factors that may partly explain dental care utilization patterns, such as acculturation.

To improve health development in Jambi Province, it needs to be supported by qualified human resource that can improve performance of employees. The decrease in performance might be caused by no work satisfaction among them. One of the problems faced by Health Office of Jambi Province was decreasing a level of work satisfaction among employees from time to time. Promotion, equity in sharing either financial or non-financial incentive, and sharing tasks equally needed to be done in order improve their work satisfaction. The aim of this study was to figure out the influence of promotion, effectiveness in sharing tasks, and equity in sharing incentive towards work satisfaction of employees at the Health Office of Jambi Province. This was an observational study using cross-sectional approach. Number of population was 277 employees of the Health Office of Jambi Province. Meanwhile, number of samples was 74 persons. Data were collected using a questionnaire and analysed quantitatively using methods of univariate, bivariate (a Chi Square test), and multivariate (a Logistic Regression test). The results of this research showed that more than half of the respondents were satisfied (56.8%), had perception of balanced promotion (50%), had good effectiveness in sharing tasks (55.4%), and felt equal in sharing incentive (51.4%). There were any significant relationships between these three variables and work satisfaction of the employees. The results of multivariate analysis demonstrated that variables of promotion (p=0.015) and equity in sharing incentive (p=0.151) jointly influenced work satisfaction of the employees. As suggestions, employees need to pay more attention to the factors of promotion, effectiveness in sharing tasks, and equity in sharing incentive.

Background: Bullying is a form of repetitive persecution both on physical and emotional aggressions and potentially causing mental and physical disorders on perpetrators and victims. There are various factors that may affect a child to behave as bullies. These are important factors to be identified as one of prevention effort to stop bullying behavior on children. Objective: This research aims to identify the association between emotional development and bullying behavior in children at the Elementary School No 7, Banyuasin Prajin, Palembang.Methods: This was a correlation descriptive using a cross sectional design. This research has been conducted on November 21, until December 1, 2016 involving 85 children as respondents. The instruments used for this research were Bar-On Emotional Quotient Inventory: Youth Version, school-bullying questionnaire, parenting style questionnaire and peer influence questionnaire. Chi-square test was used for bivariate data analysis and logistic regression test for multivariate analysis.Results: Results from chi-square test showed a significant association between emotional developments and parenting with bullying behavior (ρ<0,05), but no significant correlation between peer influence and bullying behavior (ρ>0,05). Logistic regression test showed a significant relationship between parenting and bullying behavior (OR) 4,655 (95% CI: 1,292-16,774), which indicated that the uninvolved parenting potentially makes bullying behavior have a chance to increase 4,655 times higher.Conclusion: There is a significant association between emotional development and parenting with children bullying behavior.

Background: In frail older people with natural teeth factors like polypharmacy, reduced salivary flow, a decrease of oral self-care, general healthcare issues, and a decrease in dental care utilization contribute to an increased risk for oral complications. On the other hand, oral morbidity may have a negative impact on frailty. Objective: This study explored associations between oral health and two frailty measures in community-dwelling older people. Design: A cross-sectional study. Setting: The study was carried out in a Primary Healthcare Center (PHC) in The Netherlands. Participants: Of the 5,816 persons registered in the PHC, 1,814 persons were eligible for participation at the start of the study. Measurements: Two frailty measures were used: 1. Being at risk for frailty, using Electronical Medical Record (EMR) data, and: 2. Survey-based frailty using ‘The Groningen Frailty Indicator’ (GFI). For oral health measures, dental-record data (dental care utilization, dental status, and oral health information) and self-reported oral problems were recorded. Univariate regression analyses were applied to determine the association between oral health and frailty, followed by age- and sex-adjusted multivariate logistic regressions. Results: In total 1,202 community-dwelling older people were included in the study, 45% were male and the mean age was 73 years (SD=8). Of all participants, 53% was at risk for frailty (638/1,202), and 19% was frail based on the GFI (222/1,202). A dental emergency visit (Odds Ratio (OR)= 2.0, 95% Confidence Interval (CI)=1.33;3.02 and OR=1.58, 95% CI=1.00;2.49), experiencing oral problems (OR=2.07, 95% CI=1.52;2.81 and OR=2.87, 95% CI= 2.07;3.99), and making dietary adaptations (OR=2.66, 95% CI=1.31;5.41 and OR=5.49, 95% CI= 3.01;10.01) were associated with being at risk for frailty and survey-based frailty respectively. Conclusions: A dental emergency visit and self-reported oral health problems are associated with frailty irrespective of the approach to its measurement. Healthcare professionals should be aware of the associations of oral health and frailty in daily practice.

Objectives: To determine the oral health screening and referral practices of pediatric providers, their adherence to American Academy of Pediatrics oral health guidelines, and barriers to adherence. Methods: Providers in 10 pediatric practices participating in the North Carolina Quality Improvement Initiative, funded by the Child Health Insurance Program Reauthorization Act of 2009, were asked to complete a 91-item questionnaire. Questions on risk assessment and referral practices were based on those recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics. Adherence to oral health guidelines was assessed by practitioners’ evaluation of 4 vignettes presenting screening results for an 18-mo-old child with different levels of risk and caries status. Respondents chose referral recommendations assuming adequate and inadequate dentist workforces. Logit models determined the association between barriers specified in Cabana’s framework and adherence (count of 6 to 8 adherent vignettes vs. 0 to 5). Results: Of 72 eligible providers, 53 (74%) responded. Almost everyone (98.1%) screened for dental problems; 45.2% referred in at least half of well-child visits. Respondents were aware of oral health guidelines, expressed strong agreement with them, and reported confidence in providing preventive oral health services. Yet they underreferred by an average of 42% per vignette for the 7 clinical vignette-workforce scenarios requiring an immediate referral. Frequently cited barriers were providers’ beliefs that 1) parents are poorly motivated to seek dental care, 2) oral health counseling has a small effect on parent behaviors, 3) there is a shortage of dentists in their community who will see infants and toddlers, and 4) information systems to support referrals are insufficient. Conclusion: Pediatric clinicians’ beliefs lead to a conscious decision not to refer many patients, even when children should be referred. Knowledge Transfer Statement: Evidence suggests that the primary care–dental referral process needs improvement. This study identifies barriers to delivering recommended preventive oral health services in pediatrics. The information can be used to improve the screening and referral process and, thus, the quality of preventive oral health services provided in primary care. Results also can guide researchers on the selection of interventions that need testing and might close gaps in the referral process and improve access to dental care.

Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH)in head injury is a very common case. Research showed that 33% moderate andsevere head injury patients had SAH during initial CT scan. A prospective study was performed on 37 head injurypatients with SAH which had been treated in Arifin Achmad Hospital during January to June 2014 period. Bivariableanalysis that was used in this research was an unpaired categorical analytic statistical test, the chi square test. Meanwhile,multivariable analysis used was multiple logistic regression test. Significance was determined based on p value,which was d”0.05, and confidence interval (CI) of 95%. There were unfavourable outcome upon head injury patientswith SAH of >5mm thickness (p=0,028) and located at cerebral hemisphere and basal cistern (p=0,001). Thicknessand SAH location was found to be associated with head injury patient outcome. SAH thickness of > 5mm againstoutcome had a stronger association than location as a factor.
