AIM
The aim of this study was to investigate possible risk factors for dental caries in primary school children.
METHODS
Children aged 10-12 years (n = 257) residing in Lithgow, a non-fluoridated community in New South Wales, Australia, were examined for caries experience in the permanent dentition. Information on dental practices, diet, residential movements, and socioeconomic status were obtained from self-completed questionnaires.
RESULTS
Caries risk in the permanent teeth was associated with social disadvantage and diet. Among the dietary factors, the frequency of fruit consumption was associated with higher odds of caries experience (odds ratio: 1.52, 95% confidence intervals: 1.05, 2.21).
CONCLUSIONS
Exposure to a high level of fruit consumption was suggestive of increased caries risk. Longitudinal studies are required to investigate the relationship between fruit consumption and dental caries.
目的
本研究旨在调查小学生患龋齿的可能危险因素。
方法
对居住在澳大利亚新南威尔士州非氟化社区利思戈的10至12岁儿童（n = 257）进行恒牙龋齿检查。通过自行填写的问卷获取有关口腔卫生习惯、饮食、居住迁移和社会经济地位的信息。
结果
恒牙龋齿风险与社会劣势和饮食有关。在饮食因素中，水果食用频率与患龋齿几率较高有关（优势比：1.52，95%置信区间：1.05，2.21）。
结论
大量食用水果表明患龋齿风险增加。需要进行纵向研究以调查水果消费与龋齿之间的关系。
