Cairo University, EgyptTitle: Caries Free Society: Fighting Dental Caries by Nutrition
Abstract
Caries affecting
teeth is one of the most widespread problems in public health worldwide. Being
considered as the major oral problem, it affects 2.4 billion people worldwide;
about 60-90% of children and may reach to 100% of adult population. It is a
disease that is considered multifactorial and is affected by many variables
such as the patient’s general health, the oral hygiene measures, the type and
amount of diet and type of flora of the oral cavity, factors present in the
saliva and fluoride exposure. Caries has been combated using various products,
methods and strategies. However, it is rather important to concentrate on patient
comfort and make oral health care simple and effective. This can be achieved by
preventing exposures to risks that cause injury or disease, and changing
dangerous or unhealthy behaviors that lead to disease, and by making the
resistance higher, against the disease. Amongst primary preventive level, there
are health promotion aspects including diet planning, dental health education
and awareness program, and diet counselling. In this lectures, several recently
published articles will be discussed.
