Article Synopsis
- The study explores how regional deprivation affects dental care use among adults in South Korea, emphasizing the importance of dental health for overall well-being.
- It employs multilevel logistic regression to assess the relationship between regional deprivation and dental care purposes, based on data from the 2008 Korean Community Health Survey.
- Results indicate that while regional deprivation significantly impacts dental examinations (12.8% of adults) and variations in their usage, it does not affect visits for other dental reasons, highlighting a need for policy changes to address these disparities.
