Relação entre a prevalência da doença cárie e risco microbiológico

Abstract: A cárie dentária é uma doença infecciosa, multifatorial com prevalência na infância, sendo a bactéria Streptococcus mutans principal agente etiológico, existindo uma correlação entre concentração desta na cavidade bucal e incidência da doença. Neste contexto, o trabalho objetivou relacionar incidência clínica da cárie, com concentração da bactéria na saliva de escolares, visando avaliar o risco à doença e implantar ações para seu controle. Foram realizadas avaliações de determinantes sócio-econômicos, dieta, c… Show more

“…The most commonly used indicator of caries experience is an index comprising disease and treatment markers, the DMFT (Decayed, Missing and Filled Teeth). [11,12,14] This index should be analysed together with factors such as a diet, frequency of snacking, social status, oral health in close relatives, dental awareness and past dental history. In studies of Areias et al [11,13,14], the controls were sibling-matched, closest in age, in order to reduce the bias of factors like diet, social status and familiar oral health.…”

“…[11,13,14,36,37] Saliva plays a crucial role in the defense against periopathogenic and cariogenic bacteria in the oral cavity and the equilibrium between demineralisation and remineralisation of enamel and dentin. [3,12,38] Consequently, the protective effects of salivary constituents, salivary flow rates and the salivary buffering capacity are essential. [36,[39][40][41][42][43] It is agreed almost universally that the salivary flow rate is significantly reduced in individuals with Down syndrome.…”
