مقدمه: شیوع اپیدمی کووید-19 دسترسی و بهره‌مندی از مراقبت‌های سلامت به ویژه خدمات دندان‌پزشکی را با مشکلات بسیاری مواجه کرد. این پژوهش به تعیین اثر شیوع اپیدمی کووید-19 بر استفاده از خدمات دندان‌پزشکی خانوار ایرانی و عوامل مؤثر بر آن می‌پردازد.
روش‌ها: جامعه‌ی آماری این پژوهش، خانوارهای کل کشور و تعداد نمونه‌ی مورد مطالعه، 76495 خانوار بود. این مطالعه با استفاده از مدل رگرسیون لجستیک و تجزیه و تحلیل آماری با استفاده از نرم‌افزارهای Access، Excel و STATA 15 انجام شد.
یافته‌ها: طبق نتایج، بعد از شیوع کووید-19، خانوار کمتری از خدمات دندان‌پزشکی استفاده داشته‌اند. نسبت استفاده از خدمات دندان‌پزشکی در سال قبل و بعد از وقوع
کووید-19 به ترتیب 4/59 و 2/84 درصد خانوار بود. همچنین میزان بهره‌مندی خانوار دارای پوشش بیمه نسبت به خانوار بدون بیمه بالاتر بود و خانوار با سرپرست شاغل، خانواری دارای سرپرست تحصیل ‌کرده و با درآمد بالا بهره‌مندی بیشتر و خانوار دارای سالمند، استفاده‌ی کمتری از خدمات دندان‌پزشکی داشتند.
نتیجه‌گیری: بر اساس یافته‌های حاصل از مطالعه‌ی حاضر، توصیه می‌شود؛ مداخلات مؤثر مبتنی بر شواهد برای بهبود استفاده از خدمات دندان‌پزشکی در بین خانوارهای ایرانی بخصوص خانوارهای بدون پوشش بیمه‌ای، خانوار ساکن مناطق روستایی، دارای افراد سالمند، و خانوار با سرپرست زن، به اجرا گذاشته شود.

چکیده [English]

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic has caused challenges in accessing and utilizing healthcare, particularly dental services. This study focuses on determining the impact of the pandemic on Iranian households' use of dental services and the factors that influence it.
Methods: The statistical population of this study consisted of households throughout the country, with a sample size of 76,495 households. The study employed a logistic regression model, and statistical analysis was conducted using Access, Excel, and STATA 15 software.
Findings: The study found that fewer households utilized dental services after the outbreak of COVID-19. The ratio of dental service utilization before and after the occurrence of COVID-19 was 4.59% and 2.84% of households, respectively. Additionally, households with insurance coverage were more likely to use dental services, while households with an employed head, a highly educated head with high income, and households with elderly members were less likely to utilize dental services.
Conclusion: To improve the utilization of dental services after the COVID-19 pandemic among Iranian households, particularly those: without insurance, living in rural areas, with elderly members, and headed by women, evidence-based interventions should be implemented.
