    Purpose: We evaluated the oral health and dental status of people with epilepsy, and their relationship to seizure frequency, in a community cohort in rural China.
    Methods: A cross-sectional study of people with epilepsy was carried out in areas in Henan, Shanxi and Ningxia provinces of China. All participants underwent a specially designed "Oral health and Dental status Questionnaire". Univariate and multivariate analyses were used to explore the relationships between seizure frequency and oral health and dental status.
    Results: A total of 875 people participated. Almost two thirds (65.8%) reported brushing their teeth at least once a day but 634 (73.0%) brushed their teeth for less than 3 min each time. Only 80 (9.1%) had visited a dental clinic in the previous year. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that having 1-4 seizures/month (OR 0.60, 95%CI 0.40-0.90) or > 4 seizures/month (OR 0.38, 95%CI 0.22-0.66) was associated with decreased odds of brushing teeth at least once a day, and higher seizure frequency was associated with increased odds of dental injury due to seizures (OR 2.07, 95%CI 1.22-3.50 for < 1 seizure/month; OR 2.12, 95%CI 1.25-3.58 for 1-4 seizures/month; OR 3.09, 95%CI 1.57-6.07 for > 4 seizures/month).
    Conclusion: Seizure frequency was significantly associated with seizure-related dental injury, and with the lack of good oral health practice. Improvement in the oral health of people with epilepsy in resource-poor areas should be encouraged.
