INTRODUCTION
With an increasing number of retained teeth, there is an enhanced susceptibility to periodontal problems with gingival recession, which led root surface exposure to the oral environment and develops the root caries later stages among adults.
AIM
Evaluate the root caries experience and its association with risk indicators among middle-aged South Indian adult dental patients using root caries index (RCI; Katz RV - 1979).
MATERIALS AND METHODS
The study was conducted among middle-aged (35 to 44 year) adults in the Outpatient Department of Private Dental Institute. Root caries experience was evaluated using the Katz RCI on a full mouth basis. Statistical analysis was done by using SPSS software.
RESULTS
The prevalence of root caries among study population was 8.9% with a mean RCI score of 1.04 ± 5.10. As age increased mean number of teeth with gingival recession (45.25 ± 27.09), decayed root surfaces (0.34 ± 1.11), filled root surfaces (0.39 ± 2.99), mean number of teeth missing (3.78 ± 6.42), and RCI (1.68 ± 6.93) also increased.
CONCLUSION
Age, gender and higher number of retained teeth were concluded as a significant risk indicators for root caries.
引言
随着保留牙齿数量的增加，患牙周问题和牙龈退缩的易感性增强，这导致牙根表面暴露于口腔环境中，并在成年人后期发展为根龋。
目的
使用根龋指数（RCI；Katz RV - 1979）评估南印度中年成年牙科患者的根龋经历及其与风险指标的关联。
材料与方法
该研究在一家私立牙科机构门诊部的中年（35至44岁）成年人中进行。基于全口使用Katz RCI评估根龋经历。使用SPSS软件进行统计分析。
结果
研究人群中根龋的患病率为8.9%，平均RCI评分为1.04±5.10。随着年龄的增加，牙龈退缩的平均牙齿数（45.25±27.09）、龋坏牙根面（0.34±1.11）、充填牙根面（0.39±2.99）、平均缺失牙数（3.78±6.42）和RCI（1.68±6.93）也增加。
结论
年龄、性别和保留牙齿数量较多被认为是根龋的重要风险指标。
