Objectives: To evaluate the association between oral health-related quality of life and oral health-related self-efficacy in high school students.
Methods: A questionnaire-based survey was conducted among high school students in Daegu, South Korea from November to December 2015, and the final data of 432 students were analyzed.
Results: Analysis of oral health-related self-efficacy in terms of general characteristics showed that both grade and income were significant factors (P<0.01). Furthermore, analysis of oral health-related quality of life in terms of general characteristics showed that academic achievement, father¡¯s educational level, and academic stress were significant factors (P<0.05). Correlation analyses of oral health-related quality of life with oral health-related self-efficacy revealed positive correlations with tooth brushing and ordinary oral health behavior. Regression analysis of oral health-related quality of life showed that father¡¯s educational level, oral health-related self-efficacy, academic stress, and academic achievement were influencing factors.
Conclusions: These results indicate that oral health-related self-efficacy may play a significant role in oral health-related quality of life.
