  6. Active Ageing When the risk factors for chronic diseases and functional decline are kept low while the protective factors are kept high, people will enjoy both a longer quantity and quality of life Health When labor market, employment, education, health and social policies and programs support their full participation in socio-economic, cultural and spiritual activities, people will continue to make a productive contribution to society Participation When policies and program address the social, financial and physical security needs and rights of people as they age, elderly are ensured of protection, dignity and care in the event that they are no longer able to support and protect themselves Security

  7. Oral health is an important component of ‘Active Ageing’ and is included in policy proposals related to health, one of the three basic pillars. Petersen & Yamamoto, 2005

  8. Reduce risk factors associated with major diseases and increase factors that protect health throughout the life course - Tobacco - Physical activity - Nutrition - Healthy eating - Oral Health - Psychological factors - Alcohol and drugs - Medication

  11. Dental Caries • Dental caries is an infectious, communicable disease resulting in destruction of tooth structure by acid-forming bacteria found in dental plaque, in the presence of sugar • During the past few decades, changes have been observed not only in the prevalence of dental caries, but also in the distribution and pattern of the disease in the population NIH, 2001

  12. Dental Caries • It is identified a shift toward improved diagnosis of noncavitated, incipient lesions and treatment for prevention and arrest of such lesions • Restorations repair the tooth structure, do not stop caries, have a finite life span and are susceptible to disease Fontana and Zero, 2006

  13. Diagnosis Distribution Pattern Identify Risk Factor Dental Caries Prevalence Company Logo

  14. Risk factors • An environmental, behavioral, or biologic factor confirmed by temporal sequence, usually in longitudinal studies, which if present directly increases the probability of a disease occurring, and if absent or removed reduces the probability • Risk factors are part of the causal chain or expose the host to the causal chain • Once disease occurs, removal of a risk factor may not result in a cure Beck, 1996

  15. Caries Risk Assessment • Caries risk assessment determines the probability of caries incidence in a certain period • Modern caries management also focuses on the detection of incipient, non-cavitated lesions and the practitioner’s ability to diagnose whether those lesions are active

  16. Caries Risk Assessment • Evaluate the degree of patient’s risk of developing caries to determine the intensity of the treatment and frequency of recall appointments or treatment • Help identify the main etiologic agents that contribute to the disease or that, because of their recent onset, may contribute to future disease, to determine the type of treatment

  17. Caries Risk Assessmemt • Determine if additional diagnostic procedures are required • Aid in restorative treatment decision • Improve the reliability of the prognosis of the planned treatment • Assess the efficacy of the proposed management and preventive treatment plan at recall visits

  21. Low indices of socioeconomic status (SES) have been associated with elevations in caries, although the extent to which this indicator may simply reflect previous correlates is unknown • Low SES is also associated with reduced access to care, reduced oral health aspirations, low self efficacy, and health behaviors that may be enhance caries risk NIH 2002

  22. Diet • Sugar exposure is important factor in caries development • Frequency and amount of sugar intake has been shown related to dental caries incidence

  25. The best available evidence indicates that the level of dental caries is low in countries where the consumption of free sugar is below 15–20 kg/person/yr. This is equivalent to a daily intake of 40–55 g and the values equate to 6–10% of energy intake. • Individuals should be recommended to reduce the frequency with which they consume foods containing free sugars to four times a day and thereby limit the amount of free sugars consumed (European workshop on oral care and general health, 2003)

  26. Vipeholm Study • 1945-1953 • 964 mentally deficient patients • Sugars and potential in caries induction • Non sticky form • Sticky form • Between meal and sticky form • 1 control and 6 main test groups

  27. Vipeholm Study • Control group • Sucrose group • Bread group • Chocolate group • Caramel group • 8 toffee group • 24 toffee group

  29. The Vipeholm Study

  30. The Vipeholm Study • Sugar has a topical effect on teeth • Bread is not as cariogenic as sugar • The amount of sugar is not critical • The frequency of eating is more important • Liquid sweet are not as cariogenic as retentive sweet • Carious lesions occurred despite avoidance of sugar

  35. Thus far, the most consistent predictor of caries risk in children is past caries experience NIH, 2001 • Previous caries experience was an important predictor in most models tested for primary, permanent and root surface caries Zero et al., 2001

  39. Ecological Plaque Other oral bacteria are sufficiently acidogenic. Adherence of plaque without mutan streptococci. Mutan streptococci Lactobacilli Innoculation of S.mutans shows higher caries activity. High acid production activity of S.mutans Association of Lactobacilli and dental caries. Association of Lactobacilli and fermentable carbohydrates.

  43. Overall, the data in the table indicate that the prediction of high caries risk in children, including the very young and adolescents, on the basis of a single microbial factor is problematic, whereas prediction of low caries risk is more reliable Van Houte, 1993
