Resumen
Describir los comportamientos en salud bucodental y analizar la relación de los mismos con el sentido de coherencia (SOC) en estudiantes de primer curso del Grado en Enfermería de la Universidad de Jaén, España.
Método: Estudio descriptivo transversal. Muestreo no probabilístico por conveniencia. Se recogieron variables sociodemográficas, SOC y comportamientos de salud bucodental. Se realizaron análisis descriptivo, bivariado y multivariante (regresión logística).
Resultados: Los comportamientos de salud bucodental más presentes en la muestra fueron el cepillado dentario adecuado y la ausencia de tabaquismo. Un SOC alto podría ser un factor protector frente a un comportamiento inadecuado respecto al cepillado dentario, uso de seda dental, consumo de alimentos azucarados, asistencia al dentista y consumo de cigarrillos, con OR inferiores a 1 en todos los casos, sin asociaciones estadísticamente significativas.
Conclusión: Los resultados apoyan la evidencia disponible sobre la relación positiva entre SOC y comportamientos de salud bucodental adecuados en jóvenes.
Describe oral health behaviors and analyze their relationship with the sense of coherence (SOC) in first-year students of the Degree in Nursing at the University of Jaén, Spain. Method: descriptive cross-sectional study. Non-probability sampling for convenience. Sociodemographic variables, SOC and oral health behaviors were collected. Descriptive, bivariate and multivariate analysis (logistic regression) were performed. Results: The oral health behaviors most present in the sample were adequate tooth brushing and the absence of smoking. A high SOC could be a protective factor against inappropriate behavior regarding tooth brushing, flossing, consumption of sugary foods, attending the dentist and cigarette consumption, with an OR lower than 1 in all cases, without statistically significant associations. Conclusion: The results support the available evidence on the positive relationship between SOC and appropriate oral health behaviors in young people.
