The longitudinal aspect of dental caries has not been previously reported for the Italian population. The primary object of the present study is to collect information of the prevalence of dental decay among the schoolchildren of primary school of Gradisca d'Isonzo (GO) and to analyze the tendency of caries among the students followed since the first year of school.
Subsequent examinations hold from 2011 to 2015 has been conducted by two calibrated examiners. Oral hygiene instruction and motivation followed the visits. According to WHO principals DMFT and dmft were recorded. The children in the survey were divided into 5 groups according to their ages (6, 7, 8 and 9 years), and these groups were considered separately. Descriptive and statistical analysis of the data was conducted.
More than 400 pupils were recruited, resulting in almost 900 examinations during 5 years. Overall, the %dft ≥1 children range from 18.9% (10 years, 2013) to 53.5% (8 years, 2011) across the different age groups. Overall, the %DFT≥1 children range from 8.3% (6 years, 2011) to 44.1% (10 years, 2012) across the different age groups.
Within the limits of the present study, the WHO goals are still not met, among the population in exam. Our results show a trend of decay diminution that enhances in the cohort of 10-aged children suggesting the importance of dental education. Furthermore, the lack of pediatric initiatives of oral hygiene may be overcome by a national intensive educational program, supported by further scientific evidence.
此前尚未有关于意大利人群龋齿纵向情况的报道。本研究的主要目的是收集伊松佐河畔格拉迪斯卡（戈里齐亚省）小学学龄儿童龋齿患病率的信息，并分析自入学第一年起跟踪的学生龋齿发病趋势。
2011年至2015年由两名经过校准的检查人员进行后续检查。检查后进行口腔卫生指导和激励。根据世界卫生组织的标准记录DMFT和dmft。调查中的儿童按年龄分为5组（6岁、7岁、8岁和9岁），并分别对这些组进行分析。对数据进行描述性和统计分析。
招募了400多名学生，在5年期间进行了近900次检查。总体而言，不同年龄组中dft≥1的儿童比例从18.9%（10岁，2013年）到53.5%（8岁，2011年）不等。总体而言，不同年龄组中DFT≥1的儿童比例从8.3%（6岁，2011年）到44.1%（10岁，2012年）不等。
在本研究的范围内，受检人群仍未实现世界卫生组织的目标。我们的结果显示龋齿发病率呈下降趋势，在10岁儿童队列中更为明显，这表明口腔教育的重要性。此外，国家强化教育计划可能会克服儿科口腔卫生措施的不足，这需要更多科学证据的支持。
