The National Oral Health Survey of Vietnam 1999 was conducted to inform policy development. Aims. This article aims to describe the oral health status, analyze its socioeconomic distribution, and evaluate change over time in the oral health of the adult population of Vietnam. Methods. A multistaged stratified sampling process was used. Adults aged 18+ years completed a social survey and were examined by trained and calibrated dentists. Results. Oral symptoms were frequent. Dental care utilization was low and mostly problem driven. One third of adults had periodontal pockets. Calculus was highly prevalent. Caries level was moderate with a mean decayed, missing, and filled teeth score of 4.98 (SD 5.7), with most as untreated decay. Factors related to caries were gender, hygiene practices, socioeconomic status, location, and dental visiting. Conclusions. The oral health status of the Vietnamese adult population was compromised by various factors. There was indication of deteriorating oral health of this population.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/1010539509340046","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2011,6,28]],"date-time":"2011-06-28T15:37:49Z","timestamp":1309275469000},"page":"228-236","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":11,"title":["Oral Health Status of Vietnamese Adults: Findings From the National Oral Health Survey of Vietnam"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"23","author":[{"family":"Loc Giang Do","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Australian Research Centre for Population Oral Health, Dental School, The University of Adelaide, Australia,"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Andrew John","family":"Spencer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Australian Research Centre for Population Oral Health, Dental School, The University of Adelaide, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kaye Frances","family":"Roberts-Thomson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Australian Research Centre for Population Oral Health, Dental School, The University of Adelaide, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"family":"Hai Dinh Trinh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Hanoi Institute of Odonto-Stomatology, Hanoi, Vietnam"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"family":"Thuy Thanh Nguyen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Australian Research Centre for Population Oral Health, Dental School, The University of Adelaide, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2009,7,2]]},"reference":[{"key":"atypb1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1600-0528.1999.tb01985.x"},{"key":"atypb2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1600-0528.1994.tb01592.x"},{"key":"atypb3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/00220345010800051301"},{"key":"atypb4","volume-title":"Vietnam Oral Health Status [in Vietnamese]","author":"Ngo D.","year":"1995"},{"key":"atypb5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/j.1875-595X.2001.tb00817.x"},{"key":"atypb6","volume-title":"The Second National Oral Health Survey of Vietnam-1999: background and methodology","author":"Roberts-Thomson K."},{"key":"atypb7","author":"World Health Organization.","year":"1998","journal-title":"Basic Methods"},{"issue":"4","key":"atypb8","first-page":"415","volume":"44","author":"Spencer AJ","year":"1994","journal-title":"Int Dent J"},{"key":"atypb9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/002203459607502S04"},{"key":"atypb10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/j.1875-595X.2001.tb00810.x"},{"key":"atypb11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/00220345010800051801"},{"key":"atypb12","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1834-7819.2001.tb00284.x"},{"key":"atypb13","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046\/j.1600-0528.2003.00009.x"},{"key":"atypb14","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/101053950101300204"},{"key":"atypb15","volume-title":"Research and Action for the Promotion of Oral Health Within Primary Health Care","author":"World Health Organization.","year":"1989"},{"key":"atypb16","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/1010539509333022"}],"container-title":["Asia Pacific Journal of Public Health"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1177\/1010539509340046","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1177\/1010539509340046","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,4,28]],"date-time":"2026-04-28T11:39:30Z","timestamp":1777376370000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/10.1177\/1010539509340046"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2009,7,2]]},"references-count":16,"journal-issue":{"issue":"2","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2011,3]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1177\/1010539509340046"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/1010539509340046","relation":{},"ISSN":["1010-5395","1941-2479"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1010-5395","type":"print"},{"value":"1941-2479","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2009,7,2]]}}}
