Little information is available concerning the prevalence of caries among patients with oral clefts in Eastern China. Consecutive patients aged 6-18 with oral clefts were recruited. Patients were stratified into 2 groups according to their ages, namely Group I with aged 6-12 and Group II with aged 13-18. For each age group, the children were further divided into three subgroups according to the types of oral clefts they had: cleft lip/cleft lip and alveolus (CL), cleft palate only (CP), and cleft lip and palate (CLP). Dental caries were examined by using the decayed, missing, and filled index for primary teeth (dmft) and Decay, Missing and Filled index for Permanent teeth (DMFT) according to criteria of the World Health Organization. 268 eligible patients with oral clefts were included in the study. The mean DMFT for Group I was 1.77 (SD2.58) while that for Group II was 6.96 (SD4.35). The mean DMFT was statistically significant different between the age group I and age group II (t=12.21, P<0.05). In Group I, the dmft scores was 4.68 (SD3.67) for CL group, while that for the CP group was 7.36 (SD3.93), and that for the CLP group was 5.72 (SD 3.87). The mean dmft was no statistically significant different among cleft types (F=3.13, P>0.05). Also in Group I, the mean DMFT was 1.56 (SD2.18) for CL group, while that for the CP group was 1.24 (SD 1.81) and that for the CLP group was 2.08 (SD2.96). There were no statistically significant different in mean DMFT among different cleft types (F=1.09, P>0.05). In Group II, the mean DMFT was 6.06 (SD3.97) for CL group while that for the CP group was 7.71 (SD 4.94) and that for the CLP group was 7.05 (SD4.32). No significant difference was shown in the mean DMFT among different cleft groups (CL, CP, and CLP) (F=0.55, P>0.05). During assess the prevalence of dental caries among Eastern Chinese with oral clefts; the study confirmed that the prevalence of caries was increased with increasing age for oral clefts patients. It was also demonstrated that there was no significant difference in the mean dmft/DMFT scores among different cleft types.
关于中国东部口腔裂隙患者的龋齿患病率，目前可用信息较少。招募了年龄在6至18岁的连续性口腔裂隙患者。根据年龄将患者分为2组，即6至12岁的I组和13至18岁的II组。对于每个年龄组，根据所患口腔裂隙类型将儿童进一步分为三个亚组：唇裂/唇裂合并牙槽突裂（CL）、单纯腭裂（CP）和唇腭裂（CLP）。根据世界卫生组织的标准，使用乳牙龋失补牙指数（dmft）和恒牙龋失补牙指数（DMFT）检查龋齿情况。268名符合条件的口腔裂隙患者纳入研究。I组的平均DMFT为1.77（标准差2.58），而II组为6.96（标准差4.35）。I组和II组之间的平均DMFT在统计学上有显著差异（t = 12.21，P < 0.05）。在I组中，CL组的dmft评分为4.68（标准差3.67），CP组为7.36（标准差3.93），CLP组为5.72（标准差3.87）。不同裂隙类型之间的平均dmft在统计学上无显著差异（F = 3.13，P > 0.05）。同样在I组中，CL组的平均DMFT为1.56（标准差2.18），CP组为1.24（标准差1.81），CLP组为2.08（标准差2.96）。不同裂隙类型之间的平均DMFT无统计学显著差异（F = 1.09，P > 0.05）。在II组中，CL组的平均DMFT为6.06（标准差3.97），CP组为7.71（标准差4.94），CLP组为7.05（标准差4.32）。不同裂隙组（CL、CP和CLP）之间的平均DMFT无显著差异（F = 0.55，P > 0.05）。在评估中国东部口腔裂隙患者的龋齿患病率时；研究证实，口腔裂隙患者的龋齿患病率随年龄增长而增加。还表明不同裂隙类型之间的平均dmft/DMFT评分无显著差异。
