DMFT	1.18	1.02, 1.37	0.031*	1.11	1.00, 1.23	0.044*

Abbreviation: DMFT decayed, missing, and filled permanent teeth, CI conference interval, BMI body mass index, WHR waist-hip ratio, TRSKF triceps skinfold thickness

Dependent variable (categorical data): Adiposity indices; BMI was classified into underweight/normal weight group vs overweight/obese group (event group); WHR and TRSKF were classified by median values (higher 50% is event group)

Independent variable: DMFT (continuous data), gender, full time employment of both parents, household monthly income, frequency of tooth brushing, use of fluoride toothpaste, frequency of mouth rinse, frequency of flossing, frequency of grains intake, frequency of vegetables intake, frequency of fruits intake, frequency of milk intake, frequency of meat intake, frequency of oil intake, and frequency of sweet intake (categorical data)

In the final models of WC and WHtR, all independent variables were removed in the final model with α set at 0.05. The data of WC and WHtR were not presented here

*P < 0.05, **P < 0.01. P values were calculated through binary logistic regression
