“…In the United States, dental caries and tooth erosion affect 19 and 30% of school-going children, respectively (1, 2) while 32% of adults have untreated dental caries (1). Dental caries and tooth erosion have been indicated as the outcomes most related to food intake and dietary practices and have, therefore, been assessed by many authoritative organizations as part of dietary recommendations, primarily with respect to sugar (3, 4). For example, the 2015 Dietary Guidelines for Americans included dental caries as one of the chronic health conditions assessed with respect to added sugars (5).…”

Background: The objective of this systematic review was to assess the scope and breadth of publicly available prospective cohort and randomized controlled trial (RCT) literature on 100% fruit juice and dental caries or tooth erosion in humans. Methods: We performed a systematic search in MEDLINE/PubMed, EMBASE, and Web of Science for studies published from inception through May 2018, and the Cochrane Library databases for reports published through January 2018. Prospective cohort studies or RCTs conducted on dental health and 100% fruit juice, and published in English were selected. No restrictions were set for age, sex, geographic location, or socioeconomic status. Results: Eight publications representing five independent prospective cohort studies and nine publications on nine RCTs were included. All prospective cohort studies were in children or adolescents, and all RCTs were in adults. Prospective cohort studies on tooth erosion found no association between juice intake and tooth erosion, while those on dental caries incidence reported either no association or an inverse association between 100% fruit juice intakes and dental caries incidence. RCTs on tooth erosion showed decreased microhardness, increased surface enamel loss, increased erosion depth, greater enamel softening, and/or increased pellicle layer with 100% fruit juice, and those on dental caries showed increased demineralization of enamel slabs with 100% fruit juice. Conclusions: The existing evidence on 100% fruit juice intake and caries and tooth erosion are not conclusive. Overall, prospective cohort studies in children and adolescents found no association between 100% fruit juice intake and tooth erosion or dental caries, but, RCT data in adults suggests that 100% fruit juice could contribute to tooth erosion and dental caries. The RCT data, however, were from small, short-term studies that utilized intra-oral devices generally devoid of normal plaque or saliva action, and generally employed conditions that are not reflective of normal juice consumption.

Objetivo: Identificar a prevalência e fatores associados às Disfunções Temporomandibulares (DTM) em trabalhadores da indústria. Método: Estudo de corte transversal realizado com 1.252 trabalhadores da indústria atendidos pelo Serviço Social da Indústria (SESI), no Distrito Federal de seis estados brasileiros, em 2011. Os dados de risco ocupacional foram coletados na anamnese e entrevista ao paciente ou consulta ao PPRA/PCMSO. Adotou-se o Manual de Critérios do SESI para determinar a presença de DTM através de sinais e sintomas. Procedeu-se à análise multivariada de regressão logística, estimando o OR e Intervalo de Confiança a 95%, analisando o ajustamento pelo método da máxima verossimilhança. Resultados: Dos participantes, 15,50% apresentam algum sinal e sintoma de DTM. O ruído foi o sinal mais expressivo da ocorrência da DTM (10,14%). Observou-se associação com o sexo feminino (OR ajustado = 1,68; 1,19-2,35 IC 95%), raça/cor da pele negra/parda (OR ajustado = 1,76; IC 95%: 1,21-2,56), uso de tabaco (OR ajustado = 1,89; IC 95%: 1,18-3,04) e exposições ocupacionais a agentes físicos (OR ajustado = 1,81; IC 95%: 1,22-2,70) e ergonômicos (OR ajustado: 1,72; IC 95%: 1,18-2,51). Conclusão: Houve baixa prevalência de DTM na população da indústria. Encontrou-se associação estatisticamente significante com sexo feminino, fumante, etnia negra/parda e exposição a agentes físicos e ergonômicos no ambiente laboral, reforçando a importância da adoção de medidas preventivas para a melhoria da qualidade de vida do trabalhador.

“…In this sense, several oral health prevention activities can be implemented in schools to reduce dental caries and other oral diseases, such as discussing the reduction of sugar consumption in the diet, correct tooth brushing, increase young people’s perception of gum bleeding and pain, and educate schoolchildren about the importance of regular dental check-up appointments and the need for fluoride application and use.

Introduction:It is during the school phase that children and adolescents consolidate healthy behaviors, which will contribute to the decrease of diseases, especially in the reduction of dental caries. The main objective of the present study was to assess the decayed, missing and filled deciduous and permanent teeth index and oral health behaviors among Portuguese adolescents. Materials and methods:An observational cross-sectional study was designed including a sample of 694 adolescents between the ages of 12 and 18 years old from five public schools in the Viseu and Guarda districts, Portugal. After a self-administered questionnaire was filled out by the participants, a clinical examination was carried out in order to assess oral status and dental caries identification. A descriptive analysis of the variables was performed using the Chi-square, Mann-Whitney and Kruskal-Wallis tests (p<0.05). Results:The decayed, missing and filled permanent teeth index was 2.91±2.9 and the decayed, missing and filled deciduous teeth index was 1.10±1.4. Of the total sample, 73% consumed sugary food on a daily basis, 54.7% drank bottled water, 50.1% considered oral health good, 70.8% did not report pain in the last 12 months, but noticed gingival bleeding (51.5%). Most adolescents (79.4%) brushed their teeth daily and 60% did not use dental floss. Of the total sample, 96.4% had a dental appointment in the last 12 months, being 46.4% due to prevention treatments. The high decayed, missing and filled deciduous teeth index was associated with low maternal scholarship, male gender and living in a rural residence area (p<0.05). Adolescents who brush their teeth daily presented a good perception about their oral health (p<0.001). Conclusions:Portuguese adolescents presented a low decayed, missing and filled deciduous and permanent teeth index index. The decayed, missing and filled deciduous teeth index was associated with sociodemographic factors. Oral hygiene habits were associated with self-perception of oral health. It is suggested that oral health promotion and prevention programs should be improved in schools in order to reduce the risks of oral disease development.
