Dental caries, sugar-eating habits and toothbrushing in groups of 4-year-old children 1967-1997 in the city of Umeå, Sweden.

Four-year-old children in the city of Umeå, northern Sweden, have been the subjects for studies of dental caries at regular intervals between 1967 and 1997. Similar methods and criteria were used in all studies and the children were selected from the same catchment areas. The results of this study signified a shift in the trend towards a declining caries prevalence among 4-year-old children. There was a slight non-significant increase in the number of children with caries as well as in the mean dmft and dmfs values between 1992 and 1997. The mean dmfs value was 7.8 in 1967 and declined to 4.5 in 1971. It was 2.9 in 1976 and 2.0 in 1980 and 1987, 1.8 in 1992 and increased to 2.0 in 1997. Ten percent of the children were immigrant or refugee children in 1997 compared to 6% in 1992 and they had a significantly higher caries prevalence than children with a Swedish background (p<0.001). In 1997, 58% of the children had one or more daily intakes of sugary snacks such as buns, cakes sweets, soft drinks, etc. There was an increasing consumption of sweets and soft drinks between 1987 and 1997.

Oral fluoride retention in saliva following toothbrushing with child and adult dentifrices with and without water rinsing.

Ten healthy adult volunteers were recruited to participate in this double-blind randomised 18-leg crossover designed study. The subjects either rinsed their mouth with 10 ml de-ionised distilled water for 10 s or just spat out once after 1-min brushing with one of nine different toothpastes: NaF (500, 1,000 and 1,450 ppm F), SMFP (525, 1,000, 1,450 ppm F), AmF (250, 1,400 ppm F) or fluoride-free dentifrice. Samples of whole mixed unstimulated saliva were collected at different time intervals. The results showed that the use of the AmF toothpaste (1,400 ppm F) resulted in the highest fluoride content of saliva without water rinsing after 120 min (0.52 ppm F, CI 0.23, 0.81). Two hours after brushing with fluoride toothpaste containing AmF and NaF, the salivary fluoride levels were still higher than baseline levels.
