“…4 and 20.8 [O'Mullane, 1996]. Caries experience in Jerusalem was lower than in the USA, Canada, France and Denmark [Hescot et al, 1997;Brodeur et al, 2000;Dye Krustrup and Petersen, 2007], and similar to figures reported in Australia . In relation to Mediterranean countries, caries experience in Jerusalem was lower than in Lebanon, Syria and Turkey [Doughan et al, 2000;Beiruti et al, 2001;Namal et al, 2008], but higher than in Jordan and Egypt [World Health Organization, 2010].…”

The Social and Behavioural Pathway of Dental Caries Experience among Jewish Adults in Jerusalem

Aims: To report dental caries status, related health behaviours and social determinants among a representative sample of adults residing in Jerusalem. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted using a stratified sample of 254 Jewish and married adults aged 35–44 years in Jerusalem. Dental caries status was examined according to DMFT, percentage of caries-free persons and of people maintaining all their natural teeth (no teeth missing due to caries). The results were analysed by the independent variables and interpreted by weighted caries scores for the total Jerusalem population. Results: The mean age was 38.63 years. Weighted DMFT was found to be 10.59; 6.8% of the population were caries-free; 67.1% demonstrated maintenance of all natural teeth. Level of education was the distal factor, associated with number of natural teeth, DMFT and untreated decay. Mediating behavioural determinants included dental attendance, plaque level and sugar consumption. Discussion: The findings of this study demonstrated that caries experience among Jewish married adults in Jerusalem was moderate with low unmet dental caries needs. Additionally, data confirmed that a low level of education was a strong distal social determinant of caries experience, which affected dental health status via a pathway mediated by behavioural factors.

“…32 The national trainer and reference examiner for the NHANES (Dr. Bruce Dye) supervised the training and Quality Assurance (QA) using procedures described previously. 32 A local dental epidemiologist, trained and calibrated by the NHANES reference examiner to perform repeat examinations on the study participants, served as the local reference examiner and provided ongoing monitoring of the three dental examiners, evaluating their assessments and providing remediation when necessary. Approximately 9% of the 571 enrolled participants received a repeat dental caries and periodontal examination conducted by the reference examiner.…”

Background The authors used a large community sample of methamphetamine users to verify the patterns and severity of dental disease and establish a hierarchy of caries susceptibility by tooth type and tooth surface. Methods Using a stratified sampling approach, 571 MA users received comprehensive oral examinations and psychosocial assessments. Three calibrated dentists characterized the dental and periodontal disease using National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) protocols. Data were also collected on substance-use history and other attributes linked to dental disease Results On all dental outcome measures, MA users evidenced very high dental and periodontal disease, with older (> 30 years) and moderate/heavy MA users disproportionately affected. Women had higher rates of tooth loss and caries as well as a greater prevalence of anterior caries. Current smokers were more likely to manifest 5 or more anterior surfaces with untreated caries and 3 or more teeth involved with root caries. Nearly 7% were edentulous and a significant percentage (40%) indicated embarrassment with their dental appearance. Conclusions MA users have very high rates of dental and periodontal disease, and manifest a dose-response relationship with greater levels of MA use associated with higher rates of dental disease. Women and current cigarette smokers are disproportionally impacted. The intraoral patterns and hierarchy of caries susceptibility in MA users are distinctive. Practical Implications The prevalence and patterns of dental and periodontal disease could be used to alert dentists to possible covert MA use as well as to plan treatment. Concerns about dental appearance have potential as triggers for behavioral interventions.

“…Clinical attachment level was calculated as the difference between PD and GR. Reliability analyses conducted on the periodontal data collected over the 2009–2010 interval indicated acceptable levels of agreement and quality . Information regarding the reliability of the data collected from 2011–2012 is currently unavailable …”

Overview and quality assurance for the oral health component of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES), 2009‐2010

Abstract: Overall, the data reliability analyses conducted for 2009-2010 indicate an acceptable level of data quality and that examiner (dental hygienist) performance in this data collection cycle is similar to prior survey periods since the NHANES continuous survey began in 1999.
