Global burden of untreated caries: a systematic review and metaregression.
We aimed to consolidate all epidemiologic data about untreated caries and subsequently generate internally consistent prevalence and incidence estimates for all countries, 20 age groups, and both sexes for 1990 and 2010. The systematic search of the literature yielded 18,311 unique citations. After screening titles and abstracts, we excluded 10,461 citations as clearly irrelevant to this system...
متن کاملThe distribution of burden of dental caries in schoolchildren: a critique of the high-risk caries prevention strategy for populations
BACKGROUND The 'high-risk approach' is a commonly adopted strategy recommended for the prevention of dental caries in populations. The scientific basis for the strategy has been questioned. The objective of this study is to assess the contribution that children identified at 'high-risk' made towards the total of new caries lesions over a 4-year period, by analysing the distribution of new lesio...
متن کاملCaries prevention and reversal based on the caries balance.
The science behind caries prevention and reversal is well understood. A recent clinical trial has confirmed that reducing caries risk results in a reduction in dental decay. Dental caries progression or reversal depends upon the balance between demineralization and remineralization and can be visualized for clinical purposes as the "caries balance." This balance is determined by the relative we...
متن کاملThe Marketplace for New Caries Management Products: Dental Caries Detection and Caries Management by Risk Assessment
The number of new technologies emerging each year in the realm of dental caries management is growing at an exponential rate. Examining the patent literature, one can see that this growth rate will likely continue, with the outcome that dentistry will see an expanded growth in managing dental caries by risk assessment with medicinal therapeutic interventions. Restorative dentistry solutions, tr...
متن کاملThe Incipient Caries
Caries lesion progression is highly dynamic process characterized by alternating periods of dissolution and redeposition of minerals in the dental hard tissue. When outcome of these processes overtime is a net loss of mineral, a caries lesion develops or progresses. However, when redeposition of mineral predominates, the result may be arrest of lesion progression or remineral ization. Clinical ...
