AB - The subjective level of oral health may be affected by a number of individual socio-economic factors, and the problem of oral health related inequality due to social polarization has also been highlighted continuously.
Hence, this study attempted to examine and understand the differences between the social classes in the terms of the subjective level of oral health of the elderly’s oral health related inequality by using the secondary data of the 2020 Community Health Survey. A final analysis was performed for the 72,812 people aged 65 and older who responded to the questionnaire on their subjective perception of oral health. As a result of the study, it turned out that the probability that managers perceived subjective level of oral health as healthy was higher among women, the younger the age, the higher the education level, and for the elderly with spouses, in terms of occupational classification. As a result of the results in the above, the differences in terms of the subjective level of oral health of the elderly were confirmed by the social class, and it may be claimed that a comprehensive project implementation would be needed for the selective management of social determinants of oral health for the extension of healthy life expectancy and improvement of health equity and consideration of oral health across all policies.
