Abstract:
In developing countries, the prevalence of dental caries in children remains high, which means that implementing a simple and convenient classification is critical. The classification needs to be evidence-based and needs to reflect tooth-level information. In this study, the prevalence of dental caries in the primary dentition of 352 Myanmar school children at the ages of 5, 6, and 7 was analyzed at the tooth level to clarify the underlying data structure of the patterns of dental caries in the population. Ninety-three percent of subjects had caries in primary dentition and the mean number of decayed teeth in primary dentition was 7.54 ± 4.82. Based on the item response theory analysis, mixed-effect modeling, and Bayesian network analysis, we proposed the following classification: Group 1: No dental caries; Group 2: Dental caries in molar teeth or dental caries in maxillary anterior teeth; Group 3: Dental caries in both molar and maxillary anterior teeth; Group 4: Dental carries in mandibular anterior teeth. Dental caries (dmft) in the groups was different between groups. The results of characteristics of tooth-level information and classification presented in this study may be a useful instrument for the analysis of the data of dental caries prevalence in primary dentition.

Abstract:
<p>Dental caries is a major cause of tooth loss in children and young adults. Dental caries have been linked to the situation of underprivileged families, nutritional imbalance, and poor oral hygiene techniques, including lack of tooth brushing or flossing the teeth, and also have a genetic etiology. Dietary habits and dental hygiene practice can result in high caries in school children. This research aimed to reveal the correlation between dietary habits and dental hygiene practice with dental caries among school children in urban area of Semarang. The subjects of this research are the elementary student 7 – 9 years old enrolled in schools located in at urban area in Semarang in 2016 and the mother of a student who became the study sample. Data were statisically analyzed usingbivariate analysis and multivariate analysis. Based on the research result, it can be concluded that: there was no correlation between total carbohydrate intake, refined carbohydrate intake, fiber intake, dental hygiene practice with dental caries, bottle feeding and duration of bottle feeding were assosiated with dental cariest-score. Overall, def-t score in the study was very bad with high median of dental caries score and many children have dental caries t-score more than 6.</p>

Abstract:
La caries dental es un proceso patológico complejo, de origen infeccioso y transmisible que afecta a las estructuras dentarias y se caracteriza por un desequilibrio bioquímico que de no ser revertido, conduce a cavitación y a alteraciones del complejo dentino-pulpar. Datos de la Organización Mundial de la Salud indican que la prevalencia de caries a nivel mundial es de 60-90% en escolares y casi el 100% en adultos. Aquí presentamos un estudio descriptivo realizado en la clínica odontológica de UNITEC entre Junio 2016 y Agosto 2017. De los 168 pacientes evaluados 95% presentó carie. Las piezas dentales más afectadas fueron las molares. La molar con más caries fue la 2.7 con 94 caries, seguida de la 1.6 con 92 caries, la 2.6 con 89 caries, la 3.7 con 88 caries y la 1.7 con 86 caries. El 78% de pacientes usa cepillo dental y solamente un 32% usa hilo dental. Es necesario promover más prevención dental.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Objective: To compare the effectiveness of various caries removal techniques in mandibular primary molars using Smart Burs, atraumatic restorative technique (ART) (mechanical caries removal) and Carie-care (chemomechanical caries removal [CMCR]) among primary school children in clinical and community-based settings. Materials and Methods: A total of 80 carious primary mandibular molars were selected for the study from the dental clinic and community. They were equally assigned to four groups according to caries removal technique and also by the operating site. In Group 1, caries was removed using Carie-care in the dental clinic and in Group 2, with Smart Burs in the dental clinic. In Group 3, caries was removed using Carie-care in the field and in Group 4, with the ART in the field. The time taken for caries removal, the efficacy of caries removal and patient acceptance were evaluated with different caries removal techniques. Statistical Analysis: The obtained data were subjected to statistical analysis by ANOVA test. Results: In clinical settings, Carie-care was time-consuming but was more efficient with increased acceptance than Smart Burs and the result was found to be significant statistically (P < 0.05). In community-based settings, Carie-care was more efficient, less time consuming, and showed an increased acceptance when compared to atraumatic restorative treatment and the result was found to be significant statistically (P < 0.05). Conclusions: The CMCR technique was superior to the mechanical caries removal technique in primary teeth among school children in terms of time, efficacy, and acceptance in both clinical- and community-based settings.

Abstract:
Dental and mouth problems, especially caries, frequently happen to 60-90% school children aged between 5-14 years. Caries happens because children tend to like sweet food, which carries the potential of causing dental caries. Children love candies. If children consume too much sweets and rarely brush their teeth, they will get caries. Sweets are considered as a cariogenic compound, because sweets cause caries. This research aims to determine the correlation between age and frequency of consuming cariogenic food and dental caries incidence among children at ‘Al Huda’ Islamic Elementary School, Karangnongko, Maguwoharjo, Depok, Sleman, Yogyakarta. This is a quantitative non experimental research which used an analytic correlative method with a cross sectional design. The samples for this research were first to fifth graders of both A and B classes, there were 72 respondents selected as samples. The samples were selected using a stratified random sampling method. Data for this research were collected by means of questionnaires and observation sheets. The data collected were analyzed using Mann-Whitney u test and chi-square test. The statistical test on the correlation between age and dental caries incidence showed p-value = 0.043 < 0.05. Whereas the statistical test on the correlation between cariogenic food consumption and dental caries incidence showed p-value 0.620 > 0.05. There was a significant correlation between age and dental caries incidence among children at ‘Al Huda’ Islamic Elementary School, Karangnongko, Maguwoharjo, Depok, Sleman, Yogyakarta, and there was no significant correlation between frequency of consuming cariogenic food and dental caries incidence among children at ‘Al Huda’ Islamic Elementary School, Karangnongko, Maguwoharjo, Depok, Sleman, and Yogyakarta. Future researchers are expected to be able to examine other variables that affect dental caries in children such as heredity, race, chemical elements, saliva, oral microorganisms, plaques, and microorganisms as well as research in a wider population.

Abstract:
Aim: To evaluate the impact of the recording of teeth whose clinical conditions rarely vary (anterior teeth and third molars) in inter-examiner agreement measurements. Methods: Clinical data from 56 schoolchildren, 12 years of age, previously collected by two examiners, according to the “Oral Health Surveys: basic methods” codes and criteria, were analyzed in the present study. The effects from including/excluding such teeth upon reproducibility were measured by general percentage agreement (GPA) and Kappa statistics (к) performances. Results: The exclusion of anterior teeth associated with the inclusion of third molars produced a decrease in GPA that was simultaneous to an increase in the weighted Kappa (nominal data) and simple (dichotomous data) values. The incorrect inclusion of third molars (GPA = 100%; к = + 1) in the reproducibility measurement artificially increased the inter-examiner Kappa values. Conclusion: The inclusion/exclusion of anterior teeth and third molars, seeking a more reliable agreement among examiners, can have a positive or negative impact on the measured reproducibility values. A clear warning about the impact of including third molars in the reproducibility measurement, in the 12 years old age group, should be performed in “Oral Health Surveys: basic methods” and similar manuals.

Dental caries affects temporary and permanent teeth, in some cases in a short time after their eruption. Statistical data show that dental caries affecting 71.2-97.1% of the population worldwide new methods for its prevention, diagnosis and treatment. Epidemiological studies show that in children with recently erupted teeth, predominates caries of the occlusal. The high prevalence of caries necessitates the study and continuous development of surfaces of the molars. For these reasons, the condition of dental fissures, in terms of the presence of dental plaque or bacterial plaque, is a risk factor for the development of dental caries. Fissure sealing is included by WHO as one of the 4 methods for preventing dental caries.

Abstract:
Dental caries is very common to people of Bangladesh. The treatment of dental carries is very expensive so alternative lowcost option from plant products are important for the rural people. Bohera (Terminaliabellirica) is known to people for its medicinal values. The antibacterial activity of methanolic extracts of bohera bark and fruits were tested against dental caries causing bacteria Streptococcus mutans. It was found that crude extracts of both bark and fruits of bohera have the antibacterial activity against Streptococcus mutans. The crude extract was purified with sillica gel (230-300mesh)with gradient elution of methanol, ethanol and chloroform. The purified extract of bohera also showed strong antibacterial activity against dental caries causing bacteria Streptococcus mutans. The rural people of Bangladesh may use the barks and fruits of bohera to control the dental caries problem locally.J. Environ. Sci. & Natural Resources, 10(2): 117-120 2017

Abstract:
Although dental caries in the pediatric and adolescent population has consistently declined in the United States, it is still the most common childhood disease. Dental problems are the number one reason for missing school next to the common cold. Dental caries are an infectious, communicable disease resulting in destruction of tooth structure by acid-forming bacteria found in dental plaque, an intraoral biofilm, in the presence of sugar. The etiology of rampant disease is very complex. It is multifactorial and has a close relationship to a number of risk factors. It is important that school nurses identify patients at risk for dental caries early to determine their risk and refer them for disease prevention and control.

Abstract:
Dental Caries can affect attendance, scholastic performance (lack of attention due to pain) and nutritional status. Children suffering from toothache or dental problems avoid or change their regular eating patterns. In neglected oral hygiene along with dental caries, periodontal diseases are seen. Periodontitis from the upper jaw may transmit the infection to the brain. Fluoride plays an important role in the prevention of dental caries, but it also causes fluorosis in excess amounts. Fluorosis aggravates dental carries. It is imperative to diagnose these problems at their early stage to prevent complications & to restore them in case it’s a permanent teeth. Objectives of the study • Assess the existing knowledge of school children regarding dental caries. • To examine by visualization of the oral cavity for the presence of dental caries. • To associate the presence of dental caries with demographic data of children. • To determine the remedial/treatment needs. • To prepare the information booklet on preventive measures and remedial measures as well. Methods: The research design of the study was a descriptive cross-sectional study. The population was school children of age 6-12 years. The study originated with a sample of 150 children from selected schools in Tumkur. The sample of an equal proportion of children was scientifically drawn at random by using a random number table from each age group. Results: The present study shows that the mean knowledge among school children was 44.1%. This study revealed that schoolchildren were having very less knowledge regarding dental caries. Knowledge of prevention was 39.5%. This shows that school children were having very less knowledge regarding the prevention of dental caries. The prevalence of dental caries was 61.3% and this is the proportion referred for treatment needs among school children. The study found a significant association between knowledge of dental caries with the age of the children (χ2 =24.64, df=2), the mother’s education (χ2 =19.87, df=1) father’s education (χ2 =4.62, df=1), Mother’s occupation (χ2 =8.06, df=1), father’s occupation (χ2 =6.04, df=1) and several children (χ2 =17.72, df=1) are resulted as significant at 5% level. The proportion of treatment needs identified among the school children was 83.7% for teeth restoration, 13.0% for tooth extraction, and 3.3% for special treatments. Conclusion: The above findings depict that school children were having an inadequate level of knowledge on the prevention of dental caries. Based on the findings, an information guide sheet was developed to create awareness among school children.

Helicobacter pylori is Gram negative bacteria, the reason for causing peptic ulcer. There is suggestion between the presence of H. pylori in oral cavity and gastritis. The present study aimed to detect H. pylori in dental caries samples. The study included 29 dental caries patients from both sexes (13 males and 16 females), with different age groups (children and adult), and nine apparently healthy subject as a control group (2 males & 7 females). Dental caries samples were collected and investigated for this study from patients with dental caries who visited the Dental Faculty in the College of Dentistry, University of Babylon, Iraq. H. pylori antigen was detected using an enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) technique. Of the 29 dental caries patients, 19 (65.51%) patients were positive for H. pylori antigen test. Most of them were in the age group 20-30 (9 patients) & 30-40 (8 patients). The age groups (10-20) & (40-50) years shows 100% positivity for H. pylori antigen. Also, result was recorded significant higher difference's between H. pylori positive antigen between dental caries patients and H. pylori positive antigen among control group. (t=2.697,df=5, p≤ 0.05). Pearson correlation recorded significantly higher association between the presence of H. pylori antigen and the dental caries infection among test group (r=1, p≤ 0.000), 4 (44.5%) of the 9 control subjects, without dental caries, were positive for H. pylori antigen test. In summary, the H. pylori positive antigen test was recorded in both dental caries patients (65.51%) and in the control group (62.5 %). In conclusion, H. pylori antigen was present in dental caries patients. This could indicate that the bacteria H. pylori present in dental caries samples may contribute to caries processes.

Abstract:
Many dental diseases are experienced by humans, one of which is dental caries, there are three types of human dental caries, namely enamel caries, dentin caries and pulp caries. This study contains the detection of caries disease in human teeth using two-dimensional images and radiological results of x-ray periapical radiographs from a test image dataset that has a number of pixels between 374x288 to 672x514 pixels with an image resolution of 96 DPI. The original data of existing dental images was processed using Matlab language to obtain caries features through three stages of the processes: pre-processing stage which are stages of the preprocessing process that converts data from a two-dimensional color image (row/height, column/width) that is stored using three channels Red, Green and Blue (RGB), into a grayscale image with one channel, the process of extracting dental caries features by performing calculations caries area and calculate the distance of the caries area to the nerve canal (pulp), and the process of building learning or reference data from dental caries using 24 radiograph periapical data on molar tooth images processed using Matlab. Dental caries features extraction process and the features learning process to generate references features from dental caries is the main objective of this research. This study result was references features for human dental caries classification.

Abstract:
The objective was to investigate the experience and severity of dental caries, from the medical records of children who visited the Children's Dental Clinic of a Faculty of southern Brazil, for four years. A cross-sectional study was carried out by analyzing 262 medical records containing information sociodemographic, as well as clinical oral data, to investigate dental caries. Amongst all children included in study, 226 (86.3%) had some teeth with experience of dental caries and 161 (61.5%) had three or more dental caries. The mean dental caries in children aged between 6-8 years was 5.3 ± 3.1, and the average in children aged between 9-12 years was 2.0 ± 1.9. There was association between the severity of dental caries (more than three teeth) and not using dental floss, as well as with the geographical location of residence. Older children were considered to be protected from dental caries. In this study, the experience of dental caries was high, especially in primary teeth, and variables such as the geographical location of residence, absence of flossing were related to the greater severity of dental caries.

Abstract:
Although a link between dietary changes, caries, and dental development has been observed, the literature provides little insight about this relationship. The aim of our study was to investigate the association between dental caries and dental development in a clinical sample of Albanian children and adolescents. In total, 118 children and adolescents, born between 1995 and 2004 and aged 6–15 years, were included. Dental caries in the deciduous dentition was assessed using the Decayed, Filled Teeth (dft) index and dental caries in the permanent dentition was assessed using the Decayed, Missing, Filled Teeth (DMFT) index. Dental development during the permanent dentition was determined using the Demirjian method. Linear and ordinal regression models were applied to analyze the associations of dental caries with dental age and developmental stages of each left mandibular tooth. Dental caries in the deciduous dentition, estimated as a median dft of 2.0 (90% range, 0.0–9.1), was significantly associated with lower dental age (β = -0.21; 90% CI: -0.29, -0.12) and with delayed development of the canine, both premolars, and the second molar. Untreated dental caries (dt) was associated with lower dental age (β = -0.19; 90% CI: -0.28, -0.10). Dental caries in the permanent dentition, estimated as a median DMFT of 1.0 (90% range, 0.0–8.0), was not significantly associated with dental age (β = 0.05; 90% CI: -0.04, 0.14). However, the DMFT was associated with the advanced stages of development of both premolars and the second molar. The untreated dental caries in the deciduous dentition delays the development of permanent teeth.

Abstract:
Background: The prevalence of dental caries in children is high. Caries may prevent children from properly digest food, which is then impair nutritional intake and cause malnutrition.Objectives: To assess the relation between the severity of dental caries with nutritional status and nutrient intake of 8-10 years old school children, in the sub district of Lhoknga, Aceh Besar, Nanggroe Aceh Darussalam.Methods: This was a case-control study of 54 undernourished children as cases compared to 54 well-nourished children matched for age as control. The severity of dental caries was assessed by a dentist using a caries severity index used by the WHO.Results: The prevalence of dental caries in undernourished children was 90.7%, while in well-nourished children was 54.7%. The odds ratio (95% CI) for having dental caries in malnourished children was 7.3 (2.2-26.6), p<0,001. Compared to children without caries, the odds (95% CI) for undernourished in children suffering from severe dental caries was 10.3 (3.2-38.5). Dental caries was associated with lower intake of energy. The relative risk (95% CI) for children with severe caries to have inadequate energy intake was 4.9 (1.7–14.7), p<0.001.Conclusions: Nutritional status was associated with the severity of dental caries. Children with severe dental caries had lower energy intake.

Abstract:
Dental caries is the most common chronic childhood disease. Recent studies have suggested that dental caries harbor respiratory infections in adults. We investigated the association between dental caries and influenza in children. In this study, 42,812 children aged 2.5 years, 38,540 children aged 5.5 years, and 34,124 children aged 10 years were included in the analysis from the Longitudinal Survey of Newborns in the 21st Century in Japan, which targeted all children born during a certain period in 2001. We used information on dental caries treated at hospitals and clinics in the past year as exposure and influenza as outcome during the observation periods (1.5–2.5, 4.5–5.5, and 9–10 years of age). We performed a log-binomial regression analysis, adjusting for potential confounders, and stratified analysis according to previous dental caries status. The presence of dental caries increased the incidence of influenza in all three target ages compared with the absence of dental caries. The incidence of influenza increased with the presence of current dental caries, regardless of the presence of past dental caries. These associations were observed irrespective of household income. Early detection and treatment of dental caries may reduce the risk of influenza in children.

Cavities are the most common indication of dental caries, a contagious condition that leads to the deterioration of the tooth's structure. Dental caries has been identified as one of the most common oral health issue. This research has been conducted to identify them early, owing to the discomfort and high expense of treatment. Artificial intelligence has been utilized in recent years to create models which can forecast the risk of dental caries due to restrictions in medical research in oral healthcare, such as the high costs and lengthy requirements. Data for our study were collected from Khyber College of Dentistry and Hospital. On this data, a number of Deep Learning algorithms were implemented, and their performances were evaluated using recall, precision, F1-score, and accuracy. In comparison to CNN, LeNet and AlexNet deep learning techniques, VGG16 has the best performance, scoring accuracy of 98.99%, F1-score of 0.96% with precision of 0.95%, and a recall of 0.97%. This suggested paper demonstrated that DL is strongly advised for dental professionals to use in helping them make decisions for the early diagnosis and treatment of dental caries.

Abstract:
The World Dental Federation (FDI) policy statement in 2016 advocated evidence-based caries-control measures for managing dental caries. The caries management philosophy has shifted from the traditional surgical manners to minimal intervention dentistry. Minimal intervention dentistry aims to extend the longevity of natural teeth. It places the nonrestorative approaches as a priority. The nonrestorative approaches for caries management aim to tackle the etiological factors of dental caries. Caries can be prevented or reversed by restricting the sugar intake and its frequency in the diet, improving oral hygiene practices, and using fluoride toothpaste. This article aims to present strategies for the nonrestorative management of dental caries, which are divided into four components to address the different etiological factors of dental caries. The first component is controlling dental plaque. Strategies for plaque control include oral hygiene instruction, motivational interviewing, mechanical plaque control, and chemical plaque control. The second component for nonrestorative management is reducing the risk of caries by identifying caries risk factors and protective factors, assessing personal caries risk, and customizing a treatment plan. Evidence-based measures for caries prevention include using fluoride, and dental sealants should be provided. The third component includes topical treatment to remineralise early carious lesions. The last component is long-term follow-up. Appropriate strategy adoption for the nonrestorative management of dental caries prolongs the life span of the teeth and sustains the good oral health of patients.

Abstract:
Contemporary tendencies in dentistry are based on the concept of maximal protection of healthy tooth tissues. Caries removal has been done traditionally with mechanical rotary instruments that are fast and precise. However, conventional cavity preparation has potential adverse effects to the pulp due to heat, pressure and vibrations. Moreover, drilling often causes pain and requires local anaesthesia, and these procedures are frequently perceived as unpleasant. Etiology, development and prevention of dental caries are better understood today and new restorative materials that bond micromechanically and/or chemically to dental tissues have been introduced. Thus, development of a new, less destructive caries removal technique is allowed. In the last decades, many alternative methods have been introduced in an attempt to replace rotary instruments. These are claimed to be efficient and selective for diseased tissues and to offer comfortable treatment to the patients. New methods include air abrasion, air polishing, ultrasonic, polymer burs, enzymes, systems for chemo-mechanical caries removal, and lasers. The aim of this paper was to discuss various caries removal techniques and possibilities of their use in clinical practice. Based on the literature review it can be concluded that none of the new caries removal methods can completely replace conventional rotary instruments.

Abstract:
La caries dental es originada por interacciones complejas que provo-can la desmineralización del tejido dental, debido a la presencia de ácidos que son producidos por las bacterias cariogénicas. El dolor y la infección causada por la caries dental genera deterioro funcional y disminución de la calidad de vida. La caries es considerada un proble-ma de salud de alcance mundial que afecta entre el 60% y el 90% de la población escolar con una mayor prevalencia en niños de grupos socioeconómicos bajos. El alto consumo de azúcares libres ha sido implicado en el desarrollo de enfermedades crónicas no transmisibles, incluyendo la obesidad, las enfermedades cardiovasculares, la diabetes mellitus tipo 2 y la ca-ries dental. Es por tal motivo que la Organización Mundial de la Salud (OMS) en el año 2015 recomendó reducir la ingesta de azúcares libres a menos del 10% de la ingesta total de energía y preferiblemente por debajo del 5%, tanto en adultos como en niños. Por consiguiente, una orientación temprana a los padres en la consulta odontológica sobre el consumo de azúcares libres tendría el potencial de beneficiar tanto a la salud oral como a la salud general. El propósito del presente artículo es revisar la bibliografía actual rela-cionada con el consumo de azúcar y la caries dental.

The entire population(n=1000) was invited to participate in the quality evaluation of dental restorations in the hospital.However, only those patients who had been willing to participate in the evaluation were included.As mentioned above, a total of 1000 out of 1037 patients had agreed in this specific evaluation. Atooth was recorded as “decayed” if it was presented with deteriorated and discolored conditionor it had a presentably softened floor or created an ecological imbalance in the equilibriumbetween tooth, minerals and oral bio-films (plaque). The result of conducted study depicts thatMean DMFT is higher in males i.e 0.99 and in females its 1. The present study confirmed thefindings comparing to previous studies by stating that DMFT keeps on increasing as the ageincreases. The mean DMFT in age 11-20 is 0.005, 21-40 is 0.003 and 40-60 is 0.001. However, thefindings of the current study cannot be generalized because selective nature of inhabitants.Conclusions: Therefore it’s the responsibility of family dentist to educate patients aboutavailable treatment options and their expected outcomes. The research has evaluated the dentalcaries risk profile in the adult population and the caries-related factors which can contribute to therisk which were identified. The core reason for this unacceptable rating of such restorations wasrecurrent level of dental caries.
