The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of dental erosion in young Icelandic adults (19-22 years old) and patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), in relation to their soft drink consumption and gastroesophageal reflux. Eighty subjects (40 males and 40 females), comprising 57 young adults (mean age 21 +/- 2 years) and 23 GERD patients (mean age 35 +/- 10 years), were enrolled in this study. All subjects answered a detailed frequency questionnaire of soft drink consumption and participated in a clinical examination. Erosion was scored for incisor and molar teeth separately. No significant difference was observed in the prevalence of dental erosion between young adults and GERD patients. However, by combining the two study groups a three-fold higher risk of having erosion in molars or incisors was found for subjects drinking Coca-Cola three times a week or more often ( p < 0.05). Additionally, significantly higher erosion scores were found in molars among subjects drinking more than 1 litre of carbonated drinks (all brands) per week ( p < 0.05). It is concluded that the frequency of soft drink consumption is a strong risk factor in the development of dental erosion.
本研究的目的是确定冰岛年轻成年人(19 - 22岁)和胃食管反流病(GERD)患者中牙齿侵蚀的患病率,以及其与软饮料消费和胃食管反流的关系。本研究纳入了80名受试者(40名男性和40名女性),其中包括57名年轻成年人(平均年龄21±2岁)和23名GERD患者(平均年龄35±10岁)。所有受试者均回答了一份关于软饮料消费的详细频率问卷,并参与了临床检查。分别对门牙和臼齿的侵蚀情况进行评分。在年轻成年人和GERD患者之间,牙齿侵蚀的患病率未观察到显著差异。然而,将两个研究组合并后发现,每周饮用可口可乐三次或更频繁的受试者,其臼齿或门牙出现侵蚀的风险高出三倍(p < 0.05)。此外,每周饮用超过1升碳酸饮料(所有品牌)的受试者,其臼齿的侵蚀评分显著更高(p < 0.05)。研究得出结论,软饮料消费频率是牙齿侵蚀发展的一个重要风险因素。
