Diet refers to the customary allowance of food and drink taken by a person from day to day. The diet may affect dental caries by reacting with the enamel surface and by serving as a substrate for cariogenic microorganisms. This study examined the role of specific nutrients in the caries experience of elementary school children. 120 children aged between 6-11, who attended the Pedodontics Department of Marmara University, Faculty of Dentistry for routine dental treatment received a dental examination, parent interview, and a 3-day diet diary. The diary was completed adequately for 100 children (83%). The average daily intake of nutrients were computed and total sugar consumption and Ca/P ratio were calculated. Each child's gender, age, fluoride history, socio-economic state of the family, previous dental experience, brushing habit, and nutrient intake were examined as independent variables. No association was apparent between dental caries and the intake of specific nutrients or Ca/P ratio, except with total sugar consumption.
饮食是指一个人日常习惯摄入的食物和饮品。饮食可能通过与牙釉质表面发生反应以及作为致龋微生物的底物来影响龋齿。本研究考察了特定营养素在小学生龋齿经历中的作用。120名年龄在6至11岁之间、前往马尔马拉大学牙科学院儿童牙科接受常规牙科治疗的儿童接受了牙科检查、家长访谈以及一份为期3天的饮食日记记录。100名儿童(83%)充分完成了日记记录。计算了营养素的平均每日摄入量,并计算了总糖消耗量和钙磷比。将每个孩子的性别、年龄、氟化物接触史、家庭社会经济状况、既往牙科经历、刷牙习惯和营养素摄入量作为自变量进行考察。除了总糖消耗量外,龋齿与特定营养素的摄入量或钙磷比之间未发现明显关联。
