Abstract:
We examined the skeletal remains of 1338 early Hawaiians (preserved in the Bishop Museum, Honolulu) to determine total caries and root surface caries prevalence. Specimens from seven islands were represented in the collection. Estimation of age at death was made by a combination of dental developmental staging for younger individuals and occlusal attrition and/or alveolar bone loss in adults. Museum records were also consulted for age estimation of adults which was primarily based on osteological criteria. The material was divided into six age groups. Predentate infants and edentulous adults were not included. A total of 19,425 teeth was examined. Caries lesions were observed in 462 individuals (34.5%) and 1895 teeth (9.8%). Coronal caries lesions in children and adolescents tended to be small and not particularly destructive of tooth structure. Root surface lesions in young adults were also small but increased progressively in size in the older groups, resulting in pulp exposure and coronal amputation. Although coronal caries was apparently not a significant dental health problem in children and young adults (compared with contemporary Hawaiians), root surface caries was an increasingly important source of tooth morbidity and tooth mortality in the older population groups. This age-related caries pattern was similar for all of the islands.

Abstract:
Infant oral health care is essential in a way where it provides a solid foundation on which a healthy oral environment is augmented. Dental caries is perhaps the most infectious and prevalent disease seen in the current scenario. Dental caries is 5 times more common than asthma and 7 times more common than hay fever in children. Rotten primary teeth can influence kids' development, lead to malocclusion, and result in huge torment and possibly perilous swelling. To forestall caries in youngsters, high-risk individuals should be distinguished at an early age (ideally high-risk moms during pre-birth care), and aggressive strategies ought to be received, such as anticipatory guidance, behaviour modifications (oral cleanliness and taking care of practices). On establishment of Dental Home, mothers should be told about preventive measures to take during teething of infants and how to administer oral care and proper cleaning of teeth.

Abstract:
Aim: Assessment of dental health in the primary dentition of preterm infants (PTI) including investigation of mother- and infant-related risk factors in a case-control study design. Material and Methods: One hundred twenty-eight infants aged 3-4 years were included. Sixty-four PTI (27 males) were randomly selected from the preterm registry of the Jena University Hospital. As a control group served 64 full-term infants (FTI) recruited from the Department of Paediatric Dentistry, matched for age and sex. Dental examinations were provided by one dentist under standard clinical conditions. Caries was scored using the International Caries Detection and Assessment System (ICDAS II) and the DMFT, gingival health using the Periodontal Screening Index, and developmental defects of enamel using the DDE index. Mother- and infant-related factors were collected via a questionnaire and from medical records. Results: The caries prevalence was 50.0% (ICDAS II >0) in PTI and 12.5% (ICDAS II >0) in FTI. The caries experience was higher in PTI (DMFT 1.0 ± 3.1) than in FTI (DMFT 0.3 ± 1.0). PTI had a higher risk of caries (OR 7.0), initial lesions (OR 6.2), DDE (OR 7.5), and gingivitis (OR 6.5) than FTI. The highest risk occurred in PTI with an extremely low birth weight (<1,000 g). A higher risk of DDE was present when mothers suffered from illness during pregnancy (OR 3.9). A higher risk of caries was revealed in infants with respiratory syndrome (OR 6.2) or when their mothers had a lower socioeconomic status (OR 6.3). Conclusions: PTI had less healthy teeth than FTI and are at a higher risk for DDE, caries, and gingivitis. The poorer dental health in PTI is associated with a low birth weight, a low socioeconomic status, and mothers' illness during pregnancy.

Abstract:
The Third National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey-Phase 1, conducted from 1988 to 1991 in the United States, included an assessment of dental caries in US children and adolescents and provided the opportunity for differences in dental caries status to be viewed by age, sex, race, and race-ethnicity. The measurement of dental caries in children and adolescents from 2 to 17 years of age included the number of decayed, missing, and filled permanent tooth surfaces and teeth, and the number of decayed and filled primary tooth surfaces and teeth. Additionally, a brief visual inspection for the presence or absence of early childhood caries in the maxillary incisors was conducted for children 12 to 23 months of age. The survey yielded weighted estimates for 1988–1991 for over 58 million US children and adolescents 1 to 17 years of age. For infants aged 12 to 23 months, 0.8% were scored positive for early childhood caries. Over 60% (62.1%) of the children aged 2 to 9 years were caries-free in their primary dentition. Over half (54.7%) of the children 5 to 17 years were caries-free in their permanent dentition. The occurrence of caries in the permanent dentition is clustered: A quarter of the children and adolescents ages 5 to 17 with at least one permanent tooth accounted for about 80% of the caries experienced in permanent teeth. Differences in caries experience were found among race and race-ethnicity subpopulations, and caries patterns for the primary and permanent dentition were dissimilar. Further analyses are needed to explore other potential determinants of caries in children.

Abstract:
The purpose of the research is to analyze the data of scientific literature on the correlation of caries in deciduous teeth with various somatic diseases in children. Research materials and methods. The bibliosemantic method was used to analyze the results of previous research based on literature sources and electronic resources. Results of the research. Worldwide rates of general and dental morbidity, namely the incidence of caries, are constantly growing among the pediatric population, Ukraine being no exception. According to the results of research by leading domestic scientists, caries in children is 5 times more common than asthma, 4 times more common than obesity, and 20 times more common than diabetes. The caries of deciduous teeth deserves particular attention as its incidence increases with age. It is established that at the age of 1 caries is diagnosed in 12-15% of infants; after a year this figure doubles, in 3-year-olds it is diagnosed in every second child and increases to 85-95% in 6-7-year-old patients. The high incidence of dental caries is facilitated by the fact that caries is a multifactorial disease and one of the main causes of caries is the presence of somatic pathology in a child. According to the state statistics, the age dynamics in relation to disease accumulation index is as follows: among children 0-6 years, the index is 1,15; among children aged 7–14 - 1,46 and among adolescents - 1,7. Numerous scientific studies of domestic and foreign scientists reveal the relationship between the development of dental caries and somatic pathology. Since the body is a holistic system, this problem needs to be considered using a comprehensive approach of pediatricians and dentists. Kuzmina DA and co-authors identified four groups at risk of developing carious disease. The first group included children with diseases associated with impaired bone metabolism, the second – with dysbiotic disorders, the third – with trophic and the fourth group included children with chemical injuries of the oral cavity. At the same time, Murlanova TP found that the highest prevalence of caries of deciduous teeth is observed in children with diseases of the respiratory system (97.60%) and gastrointestinal tract (86.70%), the highest intensity (6.52 teeth) being observed in children with musculoskeletal system disorders. The dental status of children with type 1 diabetes was studied by Wang Y, Xing L, Yu H, Zhao L. The researchers analyzed 358 world publications and found that the prevalence of caries is on average 67%, with the highest rates (84%) in South America. Significantly more caries-affected teeth compared with somatically healthy children were found in the hepatobiliary system pathology. Systemic enamel hypoplasia is often diagnosed in children with hereditary and congenital diseases along with multiple caries lesions. The negative impact on children’s dental system has been established in adenoid hypertrophy. There have been conducted many studies on the dental status of children with disabilities associated with CNS diseases and different levels of anxiety, as well as children with mental retardation and severe speech disorders. The mass incidence of caries of deciduous teeth among 5-6 year old children according to WHO criteria was recorded in children with autism. The results of our research suggest a significantly higher incidence of caries of temporary teeth in children with pathology of the musculoskeletal system (MSS) than in somatically healthy children. The analysis of dental caries considering the nature of MSS disorders showed more caries-affected teeth in children with combined pathology than in children with flat feet and posture disorders. The results of the study confirm the correlation between dental caries and somatic pathology and will be aimed at addressing the development of a differentiated program for the prevention of dental caries in children with somatic status in the future.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Objective: To assess the impact of the “Dentistry for Infants” early dental care program run by Jacareí County (SP) by comparing the caries of individuals participating and not participating in this program. Methods: In total, 300 children between 0 and 48 months old were assessed in the following two groups: infants not participating in the program (G1, n = 100) and infants participating in the program (G2, n = 200). Each group was further divided according to age in subgroups of 0 to 24 months and 25 to 48 months. All children were clinically assessed for carious lesions using the visual-tactile method. The data were statistically analyzed using a paired Student's t-test, Mann-Whitney test, and χ2 test at a 5% significance level. Results: There was a significant difference in the prevalence (P) and mean index of deciduous teeth (deft) (C) that were decayed, indicated for extraction and filled, and the highest values were observed in G1 (p < 0.0001). The values were as follows: PG1, 73%; PG2, 22%; CG1, 3.45 ± 3.84; and CG2, 0.66 ± 1.57. Conclusion: Participating in the program positively impacted the infants’ oral health.

Abstract:
Previous studies showed that prolonged breastfeeding increases the risk of caries. However, the observed associations were mainly based on non-European populations, and important confounding and mediating factors like socioeconomic position (SEP) and diet were often neglected. The aim of this study was to investigate the role of breastfeeding and bottle-feeding practices on dental caries during childhood while accounting for SEP, ethnic background, and sugar intake. This study was part of the Generation R Study, a prospective multiethnic cohort study conducted in Rotterdam, The Netherlands. In total, 4,146 children were included in the analyses. Information about feeding practices was derived from delivery reports and questionnaires during infancy. Caries was measured via intraoral photographs at the age of 6 years and defined as decayed, missing, and filled teeth (dmft). Negative binomial hurdle regression analyses were used to study the associations between several infant feeding practices and childhood caries. The prevalence of dental caries at the age of 6 years was 27.9% (<i>n</i> = 1,158). Prolonged breastfeeding (for &#x3e;12 months) was associated with dental caries (OR 1.35, 95% CI 1.04–1.74) and the number of teeth affected by dental caries (RR 1.27, 95% CI 1.03–1.56). Furthermore, nocturnal bottle-feeding was associated with dental caries (OR 1.52, 95% CI 1.20–1.93). All associations were independent of family SEP, ethnic background, and sugar intake. Results from this Dutch cohort study confirmed the previously observed associations between prolonged breastfeeding and nocturnal bottle-feeding and the increased risk of childhood dental caries, even after proper adjustments for indicators of SEP, ethnic background, and sugar intake. Future studies are encouraged to elaborate further on possible explanations for the observed relationships. Healthcare professionals should be aware and advise caregivers about the potential risk of prolonged breastfeeding on caries development by applying the current recommendations on breastfeeding, oral hygiene, and feeding frequency.

Abstract:
This cohort study was conducted in Khon Kaen, Thailand, to test the hypothesis that a longer breastfeeding duration increases the risk for dental caries in primary teeth. We collected information on infant feeding practices and potential confounders using a structured questionnaire to interview mothers or caregivers during the second trimester of pregnancy and after birth at 21 days and at 3, 12, 18, 24, and 36 months. Regardless of other liquids and foods, full breastfeeding was defined as feeding breast milk but not formula, while any breastfeeding was feeding breast milk with or without formula. Two calibrated dentists measured dental caries when the children were 3-4 years of age using the decayed, missing, and filled surfaces (dmfs) index following the World Health Organization criteria. Negative binomial regression with a generalized linear model was used to estimate relative risks (RRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) using dmfs as an outcome. Log-binomial regression was performed to model the caries prevalence. Of 556 children, 88.1% had dental caries with a mean dmfs of 14.2. Full breastfeeding for 6-11 months was significantly associated with a lower dmfs (adjusted RR 0.77, 95% CI 0.63, 0.93) and a lower caries prevalence (adjusted RR 0.45, 95% CI 0.22, 0.90). The frequency of sleeping while breast- or bottle-feeding increased the caries risk in a dose-response manner. There was no association between duration of any breastfeeding and dental caries. In conclusion, full breastfeeding for 6-11 months may protect against dental caries in primary teeth. Prolonged breastfeeding was not associated with dental caries in this population.

Abstract:
Oral health is a vital part of overall infant health. An early dental visit is important in rendering prevention oriented inter­vention and parental counselling regarding the oral health. To assess the age and common chief complaint of the children in their first dental visit. This was a retrospective study done using case records of 842 children, who reported to the Depart­ment of Pedodontics and Preventive Dentistry, chitwan medical college. The age groups were divided into four categories; less than 3 years, 3-6years, 7-11 years and 12-14 years. The various chief complaints of patient were categorized as follows; routine check up, dental caries, dental pain, deposits/bad breath, malocclusion, unerupted ,missing or extra tooth, oral habits, trauma, orientation to prevention and others (cleft lip, palate, natal/neonatal teeth, mobile teeth, soft tissue lesions and oth­ers). The age group and the most common complaint at the first dental visit were assessed. Majority of children who visited the dentist were of age 7-11 years with the most common reason for their visit being pain followed by dental caries. None of the children visited for regular check up within 6 months of eruption of first tooth, though few children of that age group visited the dentist for other reasons like cleft lip/palate, natal/ neonatal tooth etc. The reason behind the first dental visit is when there is a problem. The most common age group to visit dentist was 7-11years with the commonest reason for their visit being pain and dental caries. It can be concluded that awareness and knowledge regarding the first dental visit is almost nil among the parents of this region.

Abstract:

Dental caries is a huge problem among the previously disadvantaged population. Early childhood caries is a problem with infants. This thesis contained information concerning the parents knowledge about their children's oral health and their own personal details. These children were all in the age group 2-5 years. The study findings suggest that parent and parents-to-be, need to be informed on oral health issues concerning their children. This should not solely be the task of dentists but other health care workers as well.

Abstract:
The human mouth houses the second most diverse microbial community in the body, with almost 700 species of bacteria colonizing the hard surfaces of teeth and the soft tissues of the oral mucosa. To compete in the relatively exposed oral cavity, resident microbes must avoid being replaced by newcomers. This selective constraint, coupled with pressure on the host to cultivate a beneficial microbiome, has rendered a commensal oral microbiota that displays colonization resistance, protecting the human host from invasive species, including pathogens. Current control of dental plaque-related diseases is non-specific and is centered on the removal of plaque by mechanical means. Several new methods based on the modulation of the microbiome that aim at maintaining and re-establishing a healthy oral ecosystem have been developed and has greatly expanded our knowledge of the composition and function of the oral microbiome in health and disease. Promoting a balanced microbiome is therefore important to effectively maintain or restore oral health. This review provides an updated body of knowledge on oral microbiome in health and disease and discusses the implications for modern-day oral healthcare. Filipino Oral Microbiome Research to develop a policy framework for microbiome-based management of dental diseases and opportunities will be discussed.

Abstract:
The first three chapters of this book have introduced the basics of what dental caries is and how to detect lesions. The next chapter will consider the concept of caries control and begins by explaining why throughout this book the preferred term is caries control, rather than prevention. Remember, the formation of the dental biofilm, and its metabolism is an ubiquitous natural process; it cannot be prevented. So: Question: Who is susceptible to caries lesion development? Answer: Everyone with teeth, from cradle to grave because the metabolism in the dental biofilm is an ubiquitous, natural process. Lesion development and progression, which may occur over time, are symptoms of the process. We should aim to control these processes so that the development of a clinically visible lesion is avoided. However, if clinical lesions develop and progress these symptoms can be arrested by controlling the environment. Thus, all patients with teeth should know how lesions may form and progress, and how to control this. Please note the emphasis on the patient. It is the patient who controls caries with the support and encouragement of the professional. The goals of medicine (and dentistry) are to promote and preserve health if it is impaired, to restore health, and minimize suffering and distress. These goals are embodied in the word ‘prevention’. It is agreed that, with dental caries, this is basically what the dental profession is doing—and has always been doing. In many ways this has become a mantra—the dentists rightly claim that they are conducting prevention when recommending the population to eat less sugar, use fluorides, brush teeth, and when lesions occur, drill and fill, in order to restore the dentition and reduce pain and discomfort. Unfortunately, when dentists go for restoration—without ensuring that the patient understands how to control further caries lesion development—they indirectly stimulate the repair cycle, which ultimately may lead to loss of teeth (see Chapter 5). Sometimes the filling may be described as ‘treatment’ to contrast it with ‘prevention’. The dentist is paid for fillings (treatment) and minimally rewarded for so-called prevention.

Abstract:
Dental caries remains the single most important oral condition treated by the dental profession on a daily basis. From a public health perspective, the prevention of caries is still therefore a major challenge. As outlined in Chapter 4 , before effective prevention can be delivered the cause of the condition needs to be fully understood. In addition, the disease process should be clear. This chapter will review the evidence on the aetiology of dental caries and present an overview of preventive measures that can be adopted at an individual clinical level, as well as community wide. Dental caries occurs because of demineralization of enamel and dentine structure by organic acids formed by oral bacteria present in dental plaque through the anaerobic metabolism of dietary sugars. The caries process is influenced by the susceptibility of the tooth surface, the bacterial profile, the quantity and quality of saliva, and the presence of fluoride which promotes remineralization and inhibits the demineralization of the tooth structure. Caries is a dynamic process involving alternating periods of demineralization and remineralization. However, the majority of lesions in permanent teeth advance relatively slowly, with an average lesion taking at least 3 years to progress through enamel to dentine (Mejare et al. 1998). In populations with low DMF/dmf levels, the majority of carious lesions are confined to the occlusal surfaces of the molar teeth. At higher DMF/dmf levels, smooth surfaces may also be affected by caries (Sheiham and Sabbah 2010). Many different terms have been used to name and classify sugars. This has caused a degree of confusion amongst both the general public and health professionals. In recognition of this, an expert UK government committee—Committee on Medical Aspects of Food Policy (COMA)—has recommended a revised naming system, which has now become the standard classification of sugars in the UK (Department of Health 1989). The COMA classification is based upon where the sugar molecules are located within the food or drink structure. Intrinsic sugars are found inside the cell structure of certain unprocessed foodstuffs, the most important being whole fruits and vegetables (containing mainly fructose, glucose, and sucrose).

Abstract:
The oral cavity is an open sink. The mucous membranes and teeth are constantly covered with a salivary film whose proteins adhere to all surfaces in the mouth. Saliva is not just a fluid flushing through the oral cavity, but a highly complex proteinaceous liquid that contains millions of microorganisms (bacteria). Depending on their different surface properties (different species have different surface proteins comprising their cell wall, which coat the surface of each cell) they stick to the salivary proteins at the surfaces of mucous membranes and teeth. These oral microorganisms comprise the endogenous flora of the mouth. They are living in symbiosis with the cells of the human body and comprise what is today called the metagenome. There are more bacteria covering all body surfaces in each individual than there are eukaryotic cells in the whole body. Eukaryotes store their DNA in a membrane ‘sac’ called the nucleus. Plants, fungi, and animals are eukaryotes, whereas bacteria are prokaryotes with no distinct nuclear compartment in which to store their DNA. Prokaryotes live in a variety of ecological niches. An occlusal fissure is an example of such a niche and so is an approximal space between neighbouring teeth, the gingival crevice, and periodontal pockets. Bacteria are astonishingly varied in their biochemical capabilities—in fact, more so than eukaryotic cells and each ecological niche may have a particular environment (different pH, inflammatory exudate, etc.), which will influence the microbial function and composition. Until recently, traditional bacteriological methods were used to isolate and culture microorganisms in the laboratory, but it was realized that only a few could be cultivated! DNA sequencing techniques (genomics) of populations of microorganisms from a variety of natural habitats (including the oral cavity) showed that most species have not been found by these traditional culturing techniques. According to some estimates, about 99% of prokaryotic species remain to be characterized. For this reason alone, it does not make sense to think that a particular ‘caries microorganism’ exists. There are also implications for the many attempts to find salivary microbial and biochemical biomarkers that might be used clinically to assess caries risk.

Abstract:
Dentist, follow root canal therapy to treat teeth with pulpal involvement due to dental caries or as a result of trauma. In order to restore fractured and broken down teeth internal reinforcement is required in the form of a post-core restoration. The post extends into the root canal space and provides retention for the core, which subsequently helps to provide a foundation for the crown restoration. For the treatment procedure, post, core and crown are casted by an indirect procedure by taking the measurements from patient’s tooth in the form of impressions. These impressions are then converted into solid gypsum casts and then wax patterns are developed in order to facilitate casting by the lost wax technique. The final shape of the core and crown and success of the treatment entirely depends upon the skill of the dental technician and involves a number of variables in impressioning, cast poring and wax pattern fabrication. The treatment can be further simplified by making a prototype model of the post, core and the crown by taking the dimensions from the patient’s tooth. This paper presents four prototype models prepared from the solid model of the original tooth and three restored tooth.

Abstract:
В статье представлены данные по опросу школьников Республики Адыгея по вопросам пищевых привычек и навыков гигиены полости рта. Исследование показало, что более чем в половине случаев выявлен ряд факторов, провоцирующих развитие кариеса зубов (жевательная леность, частое употребление газированных напитков и кондитерских изделий). Значительная часть опрошенных детей не регулярно чистят зубы (67,31-71,43%), 21,43-40,38% не учитывают возраст при выборе стоматологических гигиенических средств, и только 17,42-57,14% в дополнение к зубной пасте и щетке используют для ухода за полостью рта иные средства гигиены. The article presents data on a survey of schoolchildren of the Republic of Adygea on food habits and oral hygiene skills. The study showed that more than half of the cases revealed a number of factors that provoke the development of dental caries (chewing laziness, frequent use of carbonated drinks and confectionery). A significant proportion of the children surveyed do not regularly brush their teeth (67,31-71,43%), 21,43-40,38% age is not taken into account when choosing dental hygiene products, and only 17.42-57.14% use other hygiene products for oral care in addition to toothpaste and a brush.
