Keywords:
Lifestyle;, oral hygiene, oral health, fishermen, SenegalAbstract
Oral health is determined by several factors that are individual and socially dependent. The objective of this study was to describe the lifestyles, eating habits and oral hygiene habits of Senegalese fishermen at sea. The study was cross-sectional and focused on fishermen in the Dakar, Thiès and Saint Louis regions. The study took place in some of the main fishing quays of Thiès (Kayar, Mboro and Mbour), Dakar (Yoff and Hann) and Saint Louis (Guet Ndar). A 3-stage cluster sampling was carried out. The sample size was 604 individuals. Epidemiological data collected were dietary habits: dairy, meat, fish, etc., lifestyles: smoking, alcohol, coffee, tea, etc., oral hygiene habits: means, products, methods and dental status ( DMFT). Seventy-nine percent of the fishermen surveyed consumed dairy products at sea, 31.5% consumed tobacco. More than one fifth of the fishermen who smoked smoked more than 10 cigarettes per day. Nearly 75% of the sample reported using sea water to relieve their pain. More than 37.3% of the fishermen reported brushing their teeth twice a day. The consumption of fish products was significantly associated with DMFT (p=0.04). The average DMFTof tea drinkers (7.75) was lower than that of non-drinkers (8.48) without a significant difference (p value = 0.073). This work, carried out among fishermen in Senegal, has shown us that the lifestyle, hygiene and dietary habits used are negative for oral health.
