Increased caries prevalence in 2.5‐year‐old children with cleft lip and/or palate

Abstract: The prevalence of dental caries was determined clinically in 2.5-year-old Dutch cleft lip and/or palate children (n = 76) and in children without congenital malformation (n = 75). The parents were given a structured questionnaire regarding the child's dietary habits, oral hygiene, fluoride exposure and social economic background. The prevalence of dental caries was higher in children with oral cleft than in children without oral cleft. Initial caries (white spots) was diagnosed in 17.1% of the subjects with or… Show more

“…In deciduous teeth, 37.37% children with clefts were caries free and 55.03% normal children were caries free, which is similar to the study done by Chapple and Nunn 3 but more than the study done by Dahllöf et al 5 and Turner et al 6 In permanent teeth, 24.39% children with clefts were caries free; this is similar to the study done by Hewson et al 7 but less than the study done by Paul and Brandt 8 in which 53.5% of children were caries free. The mean dmft and dmfs were signifi cantly more in children with clefts as compared with children without clefts, which is similar to the studies done by Chapple and Nunn, 3 Hewson et al, 7 and Paul and Brandt, 8 and more than the study done by Bokhout et al 9 However, the mean caries experience in the present study was less than that in the other studies, which considered caries among children with cleft only, by Bian et al 10 (dmft, 3.7 ± 3.3),…”

“…The fa m i ly of t h is ca se report had low socioeconomic status, agreeing with the study of Bokhout et al [6], who reported that children with clefts, with poor oral hygiene, and cariogenic diet were from families with monthly low income. The authors believe that families with higher incomes followed better the recommendations and restricted the consumption of cariogenic foods high in sucrose.…”

“…Lauterstein and Mendelsohn [22], Lucas et al [24], and Hewson et al [16] did not observed significant difference in the caries prevalence of these two groups. But, other studies [1,4,6,14,18] found greater risk for individuals with CLP.…”

“…e literature on CL/P subjects and dental caries is con�icting with reports suggesting that individuals born with oral cles have a higher risk of caries [5][6][7][8][9][10][11] and there also exist studies that did not �nd any difference in caries experience between individuals born with cles and unaffected controls [12][13][14][15][16]. A recent meta-analysis on the frequency of caries in individuals born with cles was inconclusive [17].…”
