TABLE 2—

Response Profile for Number of Missing Teeth of a Total 28 Teeth, Excluding Third Molars: ElderSmile Program; New York, NY; 2010–2012

Ordered Value	Missing Teeth	No.^a (%^b)
3 = edentulous	28	131 (23.6)
2 = limited functional capacity	9–27	244 (43.9)
1 = functional dentition	0–8	181 (32.6)

Note. Total number of respondents = 556. The score test for the proportional odds assumption suggests that this assumption is valid (P = .55) for the current data, χ² = 3.9910; df = 5; Pr > χ² = 0.5507.

^{^a}

Numbers may vary across models because of missing values for included characteristics.

^{^b}

Percent does not sum to 100% because of rounding.
