Sociodemographic and general data were collected for all participants (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u2009150). The Clinical Dementia Rating (CDR) was used to identify the presence of dementia, and the Apraxia Screening Test (AST) was used to identify motor impairment. A comprehensive dental examination was also performed. This included the documentation of dental and denture status and the number of decayed, missing and filled teeth (DMFT). In addition, dental and denture hygiene were assessed using the Plaque Index (PI) and the Denture Hygiene Index (DHI). Univariate and multivariate regression models were used to analyse possible factors affecting the dependent target variables.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>In multivariate regression analysis, the factors that most strongly influenced greater PI were a lower number of medications taken (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.018), poorer general health (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.013) and the presence of dementia (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.010). A more advanced age (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.036) and longer nursing-home stay (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.048) had a negative effect on the DHI. Furthermore, gender (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.037, in favour of women), poorer general health (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.003), presence of dementia (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.003), and the absence of natural teeth (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.028) influenced poorer oral health. The factors most strongly influenced greater number of missing teeth were a more advanced age (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.021) and longer nursing-home stay (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.015). In terms of fewer filled teeth, a shorter nursing-home stay (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.002) was the factor most strongly influenced this.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>Poorer general health and the presence of apraxia and cognitive impairment are the main determinants for poorer oral hygiene and oral health among nursing-home residents.
