Roman city Cibalae (Vinkovci) - the birthplace of Roman emperors Valentinian I and Valens was a very well developed urban ares in the late antique what was evidenced by numerous archaeological findings. The aim of this paper is to get insight in dental health of antique population of Cibalae. One hundred individuals with 2041 teeth dated to 3rd - 5th century AD have been analyzed for caries, antemortem tooth loss, periapical diseases and tooth wear. Prevalence of antemortem tooth loss was 4.3% in males, 5.2% in females. Prevalence of caries per tooth was 8.4% in males, 7.0% in females. Compared to other Croatian antique sites, ancient inhabitants of Roman Cibalae had rather good dental health with low caries prevalence and no gender differences. Statistically significant difference was found between males in females in the prevalence of periapical lesions and degree of tooth wear. Periapical lesions were found only in males.
罗马城市锡巴莱(温科夫齐)——罗马皇帝瓦伦提尼安一世和瓦伦斯的出生地,在古代晚期是一个非常发达的城市区域,众多考古发现证明了这一点。本文的目的是深入了解锡巴莱古代居民的牙齿健康状况。对公元3至5世纪的100名个体的2041颗牙齿进行了龋齿、生前牙齿脱落、根尖周疾病和牙齿磨损分析。生前牙齿脱落的患病率男性为4.3%,女性为5.2%。每颗牙齿的龋齿患病率男性为8.4%,女性为7.0%。与克罗地亚其他古代遗址相比,罗马锡巴莱的古代居民牙齿健康状况相当良好,龋齿患病率低且无性别差异。在根尖周病变患病率和牙齿磨损程度方面,男性和女性之间存在统计学上的显著差异。根尖周病变仅在男性中发现。
