Table 2.

Bivariate analysis between the independent variables: socio-demographic and health indicators, and the outcomes: caries experience (DMFT > 0), OHI-S, TDI and C-OIDP with odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI)

 
Caries experience DMFT/dmft>0
OHI-S -poor OHI
TDI - Trauma present
C-OIDP impact >0 (Age 11–13)
