The aims of this study were 1) to investigate whether oral hygiene and dietary habits established at 1 year of age are maintained at 2 years of age and 2) to analyze caries-related factors with regard to oral health between the age of 1 and 3 years by using the salutogenic theory-that is, focusing on behavioral factors that do not result in impairment of health. Altogether 289 children were examined at 1, 2, and 3 years of age, and their parents were interviewed about the children's oral hygiene and dietary habits at 1 and 2 years of age. The result shows that caries-related habits, such as oral hygiene and dietary habits, established during infancy are maintained throughout early childhood. The principles of the salutogenic theory were found to be applicable when studying caries-related habits and oral health. Thus, if a dietary risk behavior is established at 1 year of age, the chance of remaining caries-free until 3 years of age is highest if good oral hygiene habits, including the use of fluoride toothpaste, are present at 2 years of age. We therefore conclude that comprehensive knowledge of a child's future dental health can be obtained by using chairside information-that is, interview of the parents and clinical examination of the children.
1）调查1岁时养成的口腔卫生和饮食习惯在2岁时是否得以保持；2）运用健康生成理论分析1至3岁儿童口腔健康方面与龋齿相关的因素，即关注不会导致健康受损的行为因素。共有289名儿童在1岁、2岁和3岁时接受了检查，并就其1岁和2岁时的口腔卫生及饮食习惯对他们的父母进行了访谈。结果显示，婴儿期养成的与龋齿相关的习惯，如口腔卫生和饮食习惯，在整个幼儿期都会持续存在。研究发现，在研究与龋齿相关的习惯和口腔健康时，健康生成理论的原则是适用的。因此，如果在1岁时养成了饮食风险行为，那么在2岁时养成良好的口腔卫生习惯（包括使用含氟牙膏），则直到3岁时保持无龋的几率最高。我们因此得出结论，通过现场提供信息，即对父母进行访谈并对儿童进行临床检查，可以全面了解儿童未来的牙齿健康状况。
