Epidemiologic Studies of Caries-Free and Caries-Active Students: II. Diet, Dental Plaque, and Oral Hygiene
1972
Diet, extent of dental plaque, and oral hygiene scores for caries-free and caries-active students were significantly different. Results of this study suggest that these three parameters are contributing supplementary factors to the development of dental caries in the caries-active group. An experimental dietary questionnaire method used in this study may be used by dentists to identify children with a caries-conducive diet and to prescribe treatment accordingly.
