Abstract Background Despite the fact that there are parents who do not take children with untreated dental caries to a dental clinic, few studies have been conducted to identify the responsible underlying social and family factors. The aim of this study was to investigate whether socioeconomic status and lifestyle factors are associated with dental neglect in elementary school children. Methods This study was conducted in 2016 with 1655 children from the Super Shokuiku School Project in Toyama. Using Breslow’s seven health behaviors, the survey assessed: the grade, sex, and lifestyle of the children; parental internet and game use and lifestyle; socioeconomic status. The odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for having untreated dental caries were calculated using logistic regression analysis. Results Among the children participating, 152 (3.2%) had untreated dental caries. Among them, 53 (34.9%) had not been taken to a dental clinic despite the school dentist’s advice. Dental neglect was significantly associated with children in higher grades (OR, 2.08; 95% CI, 1.14–3.78), father’s Internet and game use ≥ 2 h/day (OR, 1.99; 95% CI, 1.02–3.88), not being affluent (OR, 2.78; 95% CI, 1.14–6.81), and non-engagement in afterschool activities (OR, 1.99; 95% CI, 1.10–3.62). Conclusions Socioeconomic status was the strongest factor associated with dental neglect despite the fact that the children’s medical expenses are paid in full by the National Health Insurance in Toyama, Japan. Future studies should investigate what factors prevent parents of non-affluent families from taking their children to dental clinics and how they can be socially supported to access adequate medical care.

Dental caries is a disease that has a high prevalence and is a major public health problem worldwide, especially in children. Maintenance of children's dental health involves interaction between children, parents, and dentists. Mothers' knowledge and behavior in efforts to maintain dental health have a significant influence on children's behavior. Authoritative parenting (friendly, high control) has two-way communication with not too hard in parenting but also not out of control on children. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between knowledge and the type of authoritative parenting in an effort to prevent dental caries in elementary school children in remote areas. This study is a cross-sectional study, conducted on mothers of children aged 6-9 years in Oelnaineno Village, Takari District, Kupang Regency. The number of samples was 40 mothers, the sampling procedure was carried out by simple random sampling technique. Data were collected through interviews with questionnaires containing questions to measure knowledge and types of authoritative parenting in an effort to prevent dental caries in elementary school children. The results of the study were statistically analyzed using the Multi nominal Logistics Regression test with a significance value of p <0.05. There is a significant relationship between knowledge and the type of authoritarian parenting with a significance of 0.042. Mother's parenting is influenced by knowledge and will have an impact on children. Mothers who have good knowledge apply authoritative parenting styles and child caries rates are low compared to other types. There is a relationship between knowledge and type of mother's authoritative pattern in efforts to prevent dental caries in elementary school children in remote areas. Karies gigi merupakan penyakit yang memiliki prevalensi tinggi dan menjadi masalah utama kesehatan masyarakat di seluruh dunia terutama pada anak-anak. Pemeliharaan kesehatan gigi anak melibatkan interaksi antara anak, orang tua dan dokter gigi. Pengetahuan dan perilaku ibu  dalam upaya pemeliharaan kesehatan gigi memberi pengaruh signifikan terhadap perilaku anak. Pola asuh authoritative (ramah, kontrol tinggi) memiliki komunikasi dua arah dengan tidak terlalu keras dalam pola pengasuhan tetapi juga tidak lepas kontrol pada anak. Tujuan penelitian ini merupakan untuk hubungan antara pengetahuan dan tipe pola asuh authoritative dalam upaya pencegahan karies gigi anak sekolah dasar di remote area. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian Cross-Sectional, dilakukan pada ibu anak usia 6-9 tahun di Desa Oelnaineno Kecamatan Takari Kabupaten Kupang. Jumlah sampel sebanyak 40 ibu, prosedur pengambilan sampel dilakukan dengan teknik simple random sampling. Data diambil melalui metode wawancara dengan kuesioner yang berisi pertanyaan untuk mengukur pengetahuan dan tipe pola asuh authoritative dalam upaya  pencegahan karies gigi anak sekolah dasar. Hasil penelitian dianalisis secara statistik menggunakan uji Regresi Logistik Multi nominal dengan nilai kemaknaan yaitu nilai p<0,05. Terdapat hubungan yang signifikan antara pengetahuan dan tipe pola asuh authoritarian dengan signifikansi 0,042. Pola asuh ibu dipengaruhi oleh pengetahuan dan akan berdampak pada anak. Ibu yang berpengetahuan baik menerapkan pola asuh tipe authoritative dan angka karies anak rendah dibandingkan tipe yang lain. Ada hubungan antara pengetahuan dan tipe pola authoritative ibu dalam upaya pencegahan karies gigi anak sekolah dasar di remote area.
