Description
Summary:The main function of teeth is chewing, whereas its capabilities depends on amount of teeth remains. High teeth loss in elderly can compromise this chewing function, resulting in inadequate nutrition intake. Analytic epidemiology study of relationship between dental status, diet pattern and nutrition intake in elderly of Buginese and Mandarnese took 424 sample (Buginese 206; Mandarnese 216). Buginese dental status showed higher prevalence of tooth loss 0-10 than Mandarnese (24.5%:18.1%), as for tooth loss 11-20 and 21-27, Mandarnese dental status showed higher prevalence than Buginese, and for total tooth loss Buginese showed higher prevalence than mandarnese. Total mean tooth loss between Mandarnese and Buginese not so much different, which is 20.42 to 19.58. Generally no significant diet pattern difference found between Buginese and Mandarnese. Diet pattern consist of food processed to meet elderly chewing capabilities. Analysis of relationship between dental status and macro nutrient carbohydrate and protein intake showed significant relation (p<0.05), as for lipid intake showed relation although not significant. Analysis of relationship between dental status and micro nutrient Vitamin D, E, and C statically showed no significant relation, Vitamin A showed no relation at all.
