Sugar-containing syrups such as cough medications have been recognised as potentially cariogenic, especially for chronically sick children suffering from otitis media, seizure disorder, congenital cardiac diseases and asthma. Unfortunately, an increasing number of juveniles are addicted to cough syrups containing centrally-acting drugs and these individuals not only end up with medical and social problems, but also with dental manifestations. This paper addresses the latter problem with the help of two illustrative cases.
含糖糖浆，如止咳药，已被认为具有潜在致龋性，尤其是对于患有中耳炎、癫痫症、先天性心脏病和哮喘的慢性病患儿。不幸的是，越来越多的青少年沉迷于含有中枢作用药物的止咳糖浆，这些人不仅最终出现医学和社会问题，还出现牙齿问题。本文借助两个实例探讨了后一个问题。
