“…Regarding self-reported oral health conditions, a positive perception and absence of dental pain were associated with regular use of dental services in this study.

These results can be explained by the fact that health perception may act as a determinant for understanding the importance of regular dentist visits and, consequently, more preventive actions result in fewer episodes of pain and a positive self-perceived oral health.…”
