Background: Dental attendance is less than recommended amongst all age groups, with young adults (18-24 years) shown to visit a dentist less often than other age groups.The aim of this study was to investigate how different sociodemographic and health and lifestyle factors are associated with dental attendance by young adults in the past 12 months.Methods: This study was conducted using population-based data from the 2014-5 National Health Survey (1125 participants).Univariate logistic regression analyses were performed to determine associations between variables of interest and dental attendance.Significant single association variables were modelled together in a multivariate logistic regression analysis.Results: 42% of young adults had attended a dentist in the past 12 months.Three factors were found to be significantly associated with dental attendance, including female sex (P=0.045;OR 1.3; 95% CI 1.1-1.9),speaking English at home (P=0.008;OR 2.8; 95% CI 1.3-5.9),and having private health insurance (P<0.001;OR 2.3; 95% CI 1.6-3.2).Conclusions: These results provide useful information that can be used to direct oral health policy, guide resource allocation, and assist oral health promotion efforts.Changes to existing oral health policies and promotions may be needed to improve dental attendance in this age group.
