摘要： 目的:了解在我院就诊的老年人的牙体牙髓疾病的患病情况,为今后的预防工作提供参考。方法:对2016年8月~2018年8月在我院牙体牙髓病科就诊的≥60岁老年人的牙体牙髓疾病患病就诊情况进行分类统计分析。结果:牙髓炎、根尖周炎、牙体缺损、龋病为患病的前四类疾病,其中牙髓炎和根尖周炎发病率接近。作为牙髓炎、根尖周炎主要病因的龋病,其患病率远低于前者。老年患者占全年总就诊量的12%,其中合并高血压糖尿病的占28%。结论:老年患者的疾病预防意识差,更多是在疼痛发生后才就诊。今后要加强对于老年人的口腔疾病预防教育,减少身体的痛苦及经济损失。

Abstract: Objective: To investigate the endodontic diseases of the elderly in our hospital, and to provide reference for future prevention. Methods: From August 2016 to August 2018, the patients aged 60 and over 60 who visited our hospital for endodontic diseases were classified and analyzed statistically. Results: Pulpitis, apical periodontitis, tooth defect, and dental caries were the top four category diseases, in which the incidence of pulpitis and apical periodontitis was close. As the main cause of pulpitis and apical periodontitis, the prevalence of dental caries was much lower than the former. Elderly patients accounted for 12% of the total annual patients, 28% of which were hypertension and diabetes. Conclusion: The awareness of diseases prevention in the elderly patients is poor. The patients more often seek medical advice after pain occurs. In the future, the preventive education of oral diseases among the elderly should be strengthened, with aim to reduce physical pain and economic losses.
