  • The risk of caries at age 3 years was 14.0% (no smoker in family), 20.0% (smoking in household but without evidence of exposure to tobacco smoke), and 27.6% (exposure to tobacco smoke). (bmj.com)
  • Objective Eating cheese by itself increases plaque calcium concentration - which is probably one mechanism of the well-established action of cheese in reducing experimental caries. (nature.com)
  • Our objective was to describe the characteristics of people who have a low intake of drinking water and to determine associations between their behaviors and attitudes and their intake of water. (cdc.gov)
  • However, the efficacy of caries prevention by chlorhexidine, which effectively eliminates S mutans , is inconclusive. (bmj.com)
  • Although direct drinking water (DDW) systems that utilize a reverse-osmosis technique are thought to be harmful to children's development by reducing their daily mineral intake, few population data are available regarding this topic. (fluoridealert.org)
  • These data suggested that no differences were occurred between the levels of dairy intake and the dental caries. (jrmds.in)
  • Recent national data from Sweden[ 5 ] suggest a positive correlation between dental caries and Body Mass Index (BMI), and showed that obesogenic behaviour such as snacking in early childhood predicted caries development in adolescence. (biomedcentral.com)
  • Eating cheese: does it reduce caries? (nature.com)
  • Eating cheese as part of a cooked meal (or on its own) may protect against dental caries. (nature.com)

  • Introduced by HODLEY IN 1933 PRINCIPLE: This caries activity & caries susceptibility test estimates the number of acidogenic and aciduric bacteria in the patients' saliva by counting the number of colonies appearing on tomato peptone agar plates after inoculation with a sample of saliva. (dentalpockets.com)
  • Several modifications of Snyder test have been proposed to further simplify the method for use in dental office- A smaller volume(0.2ml) of culture media is inoculated with saliva using calibrated wire loop. (dentalpockets.com)
