  • Selanjutnya, pada tabel 3 diketahui variabel yang memiliki hubungan bermakna dengan kejadian abrasi gigi adalah frekuensi menyikat gigi (p value = 0,035 dan OR = 7,000 ; 95% CI 1,386 - 35,345) dan teknik menyikat gigi (p value = 0,029 dan OR = 7,333 ; 95%CI = 1,467 - 36,664)

  • Didukung oleh nilai OR sebesar 3,666, artinya OR > 1 sehingga dapat dijelaskan bahwa umur sebagai faktor risiko timbulnya abrasi gigi sebesar 3,666 kali
