“…These different prevalence values may be caused by the differences in eating/oral hygiene habits, related oral microbiological differences and also population sampling methods employed in these studies (4). Black stain prevalence was not different among boys and girls in our study, in agreement with previous studies (18,24,26).…”

Siyah dışsal renkleşmesi olan ve olmayan çocukların sayısı DMF-T ve df-t değerlerine, cinsiyete, ebeveyn eğitim seviyesine ve diş fırçalama sıklığına göre fark göstermedi (p> 0.05). Sonuçlar:Ortalama df-t ve DMF-T değerleri, siyah dışsal renkleşmesi olan ve olmayan çocuklar arasında anlamlı fark göstermedi. Siyah dışsal renkleşme ile df-t ve DMF-T değerleri arasında anlamlı ilişki saptanmadı.Çalışmamıza dahil olan çocuklarda siyah dışsal renkleşme prevalansı literatürdeki Brezilya, İtalya, Almanya, İspanya, Polonya, Filipinler, Hindistan, Yunanistan ve Çin'deki çocuklardakinden daha yüksek, İsviçre ve Birleşik Krallık'taki çocuklardakinden daha düşük bulundu.

Methods: Presence of black stain and WHO df-t/DMF-T scores wererecorded from randomly selected 325 (boys: 167, girls: 158) schoolchildren between 5 to 13 years of age who reside in Istanbul and attend Marmara University Pediatric Dentistry Clinic.Results: Black stain was observed in 60 children (27 boys, 33 girls).The overall percentage of children affected by black stain was 18.5%.The mean df-t, DMF-T scores for children with black stain (3.67 ± 3.25;1.39±1.68) did not differ from children without black stain (4.29±3.48;1.79±2) (p>0.05). Number of children with and without black stain did not differ according to DMF-T and df-t scores, gender, parental education levels and toothbrushing frequency (p>0.05). Conclusions:The mean df-t and DMF-T scores were not statistically different between the groups with stain and without stain. Black staining and df-t, DMF-T scores were not associated with each other.The prevalence of staining in our sample was found higher than the prevalence reported from Brazil,

“…Black stain occurrence has been associated with lower risk for caries in preschoolers by França-Pinto et al (19), Boka et al (25) and Chen et al (26). Bhat (22) reported lower caries experience in 7-11 year olds and Sutcliffe (24)[in 11-13 year olds with black stain.…”

“…This finding corroborates the findings of a previous population-based study wherein black stains were associated with lower dental caries occurrence in primary dentition, when adjusting for social, demographic and behavioral factors 12,14 . Other non-populational studies found this association in permanent dentition 9,10 .…”

“…Some studies have shown that the presence of black stains (BS) could be associated with a lower prevalence of dental caries in children 9,10,11,12 , possibly due to differences in microbial composition in individuals with BS 13 . A population study in a birth cohort showed that when the researchers controlled for potential confounding and mediator factors, the presence of BS could have a protective effect for the occurrence of dental caries in primary dentition (age 5) 14 .…”

Black stains and dental caries in Brazilian schoolchildren: a cross-sectional study Abstract: The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence of black stains (BS) and factors associated with their occurrence and to investigate the association of BS with caries experience after adjusting for other risk indicators. A school-based, cross-sectional study using multistage sampling of children aged 10-12 years from 20 private and public schools in Pelotas/Southern Brazil was conducted (n = 706). Children were evaluated for BS and dental caries (DMFT/dmft index) and socioeconomic information was collected by questionnaire. Univariate and multivariate Poisson regressions were used to assess variables associated with the prevalence of BS and with caries experience. The prevalence of BS was 5.81%. The mean DMFT/dmft was 1.54 (±1.91), with a maximum value of 10. Among the children with BS, mean dmft/DMFT was 1.22 (SD 1.68), with a maximum value of 6. After adjustments for demographics and socioeconomic variables, dental plaque and tooth brushing habits, prevalence of BS was associated with lower caries experience (RR 0.67; 95%CI 0.49-0.92).In conclusion, the presence of BS showed an association with lower dental caries experience in the evaluated population. Future studies should investigate the mechanisms behind this association.

Factors associated with black tooth stain in Chinese preschool children

Abstract: In clinics, dentists should pay more attention to this aesthetic problem for the relative high prevalence of black tooth stain in primary dentition. Also, the related factors can be explained to parents for the prevention of black tooth stain in children.
