Abstract

Abstract:

Objective To investigate the current status of oral health literacy among pregnant women，analyze its influencing factors. Methods A cross-sectional study design was adopted. From October to November 2025，a total of 279 pregnant women receiving medical treatment in 32 medical alliance hospitals affiliated with a tertiary Grade A hospital in Jiangsu Province were enrolled by convenience sampling. The General Information Questionnaire，Oral Health Literacy Scale，Oral Health Impact Degree Scale，Oral Health Care Self-efficacy Scale and Perceived Social Support Scale were used for the investigation. Results The total score of oral health literacy among pregnant women was（47.77±11.29） points，and the mean item score of the “acceptance ability” dimension was the lowest（3.17±1.01）. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that brushing time per session（β=0.097，P=0.046），oral health self-efficacy（β=0.553，P<0.001） and perceived social support（β=0.179，P=0.002） were independent influencing factors of oral health literacy in pregnant women，which jointly explained 34.1% of the total variance. Conclusion The overall oral health literacy of pregnant women is moderate with uneven dimensional development and is affected by multiple factors. It is necessary to implement collaborative interventions targeting pregnant women from three aspects：behavioral guidance，self-efficacy enhancement and supportive environment building so as to improve their oral health status and ensure maternal and child health.
