Hepatitis B is an infectious disease to which dentists are susceptible. The main aim of this study was to determine the level of antibody titer and immunity in vaccinated Iranian general dentists. A total of 861 general dentists were invited to participate in this study; 598 persons who could recall their history of vaccination and consented to have blood samples taken were recruited. Demographic and work‐related data were recorded, and anti‐Hepatitis B surface antigen (anti‐HBs‐Ag) evaluations were measured using the enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Of the 598 participants, 35 (5.9%) were nonimmune (anti‐HBs |

Hepatitis B is an infectious disease to which dentists are susceptible. The main aim of this study was to determine the level of antibody titer and immunity in vaccinated Iranian general dentists. A total of 861 general dentists were invited to participate in this study; 598 persons who could recall their history of vaccination and consented to have blood samples taken were recruited. Demographic and work‐related data were recorded, and anti‐Hepatitis B surface antigen (anti‐HBs‐Ag) evaluations were measured using the enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Of the 598 participants, 35 (5.9%) were nonimmune (anti‐HBs <10 IU/l), 101 (16.9%) were relatively immune (anti‐HBs = 10–99 IU/l), and 462 (77.3%) were completely immune (anti‐HBs ≥100 IU/l). Only 218 (36.5%) of the dentists knew their HBs antibody titer. Fourteen (2.3%) persons reported receiving one dose and 65 (10.9%) had received two doses. The number of those who had received the three recommended doses totaled 519 (86.8%), 491 (82.1%) of them receiving their vaccine on schedule. Age, city, pack‐years of smoking, years of smoking, and the interval between the last vaccination and the commencement of the study had a significant relationship to the antibody titer level, whereas sex, marital status, place of practice, smoking, and vaccination schedule were not related. Only 36.5% of the general dentists had checked their antibody titer. We, therefore, recommend that dentists, as a potential high‐risk group, should know their level of anti‐HBs antibody titer so that those who require revaccination can get treatment.</description><identifier>ISSN: 0275-1879</identifier><identifier>EISSN: 1754-4505</identifier><identifier>DOI: 10.1111/j.1754-4505.2008.00052.x</identifier><identifier>PMID: 19068068</identifier><language>eng</language><publisher>Malden, USA: Blackwell Publishing Inc</publisher><subject>Adult ; Age Factors ; Aged ; antibody titer ; Cross-Sectional Studies ; Dentistry ; Dentists ; Female ; general dentists ; General Practice, Dental ; Hepatitis B ; Hepatitis B Antibodies - blood ; Hepatitis B Antibodies - immunology ; Hepatitis B Surface Antigens - immunology ; Hepatitis B Vaccines - administration & dosage ; Humans ; Immunization, Secondary ; Iran ; Male ; Marital Status ; Middle Aged ; Professional Practice Location ; Sex Factors ; Smoking ; Urban Population ; Vaccination ; Young Adult</subject><ispartof>Special care in dentistry, 2008-11, Vol.28 (6), p.265-270</ispartof><rights>2008 Special Care Dentistry Association and Wiley Periodicals, Inc.</rights><lds50>peer_reviewed</lds50><woscitedreferencessubscribed>false</woscitedreferencessubscribed><citedby>FETCH-LOGICAL-c4702-3ac65a27c76382b1d3beeb3511b06a927df906e2bd99ce594bd6c8c473742ada3</citedby><cites>FETCH-LOGICAL-c4702-3ac65a27c76382b1d3beeb3511b06a927df906e2bd99ce594bd6c8c473742ada3</cites></display><links><openurl>$$Topenurl_article</openurl><openurlfulltext>$$Topenurlfull_article</openurlfulltext><thumbnail>$$Tsyndetics_thumb_exl</thumbnail><linktopdf>$$Uhttps://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/pdf/10.1111%2Fj.1754-4505.2008.00052.x$$EPDF$$P50$$Gwiley$$H</linktopdf><linktohtml>$$Uhttps://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111%2Fj.1754-4505.2008.00052.x$$EHTML$$P50$$Gwiley$$H</linktohtml><link.rule.ids>314,776,780,1411,27901,27902,45550,45551</link.rule.ids><backlink>$$Uhttps://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19068068$$D View this record in MEDLINE/PubMed$$Hfree_for_read</backlink></links><search><creatorcontrib>Alavian, Seyed-Moayed</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Izadi, Morteza</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Zare, Ali-Akbar</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Lankarani, Maryam Moghani</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Assari, Shervin</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Vardi, Mohammad-Mahdi</creatorcontrib><title>Survey of the level of anti-HBs antibody titer in vaccinated Iranian general dentists</title><title>Special care in dentistry</title><addtitle>Spec Care Dentist</addtitle><description>ABSTRACT
