영구치 우식발생에 작용하는 다양한 요인들의 예측기간에 따른 예측인자로서의 타당성과 안정성을 평가하기 위하여, 부산광역시 D 초등학교 1학년 남녀 학생 249명을 대상으로 연구 1차년도에는 3년간 추적 조사할 우식발생 관련 요인의 확인을 위하여 대상자의 유구치 우식상태, 구강건강관리행위, 인구통계학적 변수, 타액과 구내미생물의 특성에 대하여 조사하였고, 연구 2-4차년도에는 각각 대상자의 1-3년간 영구치 우식발생 여부를 조사하여 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. 1년간 영구치 우식발생은 Dentocult LB 판정결과가 2도 이상인 학생이 1도 이하인 학생에 비하여 2.3배 높았다. 2. 2년간 영구치 우식발생은 우식경험유구치면수가 0개인 학생에 비하여 1-10개인 학생이 5.2배, 11개 이상인 학생이 6.3배 높았다. 3. 2년간 영구치 우식발생은 Dentocult LB 판정결과가 2도 이상인 학생이 1도 이하인 학생에 비하여 2.3배 높았다(p=0.036). 4. 3년간 영구치 우식발생은 우식경험유구치면수가 0개인 학생에 비하여 1-10개인 학생이 3.9배, 11개 이상인 학생이 8.5배 높았다.

The purpose of this study was to make a comprehensive study and to provide information about the dental caries of autistic persons, and to aid improvement of their oral health. The authors examined intraorally 114(male; 87, female; 27) autistic persons and 119(male; 68, female; 51) normal persons as control group. The obtained results were as follows: 1. Autistic persons were found to have lower dft rate than normal persons. 2. There was no significant difference in dental caries incidence between male and female autistic persons. 3. Institutionalized autistic persons were found to have lower dental caries incidence of deciduous teeth than non-institutionalized autistic persons. 4. Autistic persons whose parent's occupation is laborer were found to have higer dft index than those whose parent's occupation is private business or employee.

Salivary microbiota alterations can correlate with dental caries development in children, and mechanisms mediating this association need to be studied in further detail. Our study explored salivary microbiota shifts in children and their association with the incidence of dental caries with dentine involvement. Salivary samples were collected from children with caries and their subsequently matched caries-free controls before and after caries development. The microbiota was analyzed by 16S rRNA gene-based high-throughput sequencing. The salivary microbiota was more diverse in caries-free subjects than in those with dental caries with dentine involvement (DC). Although both groups exhibited similar shifts in microbiota composition, an association with caries was found by function prediction. Analysis of potential microbiome functions revealed that Granulicatella, Streptococcus, Bulleidia, and Staphylococcus in the DC group could be associated with the bacterial invasion of epithelial cells, phosphotransferase system, and ${\text\tiny{D}}-alanine$ metabolism, whereas Neisseria, Lautropia, and Leptotrichia in caries-free subjects could be associated with bacterial motility protein genes, linoleic acid metabolism, and flavonoid biosynthesis, suggesting that functional differences in the salivary microbiota may be associated with caries formation. These results expand the current understanding of the functional significance of the salivary microbiome in caries development, and may facilitate the identification of novel biomarkers and treatment targets.

Authors have made a study on the prevalence of the dental caries of distal surface of the lower 2nd molar adjacent to the lower wisdom tooth turned anteriorly. The total number examined was 893 including 542 cases of male and 351 cases of female from the 10s to the 60s. This was taken from the diagnostic charts and intraoral standard films in the infirmary of the college of dentistry, Seoul National University from Jan. 1974 to Aug. 1976. The results are as follows: 1. The caries incidence rate in male was higher than that of female (p<0.01), but the difference between right side and left side was not significant statistically(p>0.1). 3. The Incidence rate of the periapical lesions considered by dental caries of the distal surface of the lower 2nd molar was 3.9%.

The results were as follows; 1. def rate of the poliomyelitis children was 68.63% (male 66.67%, female 71.43%) and was low value compare with that of control group of 78.64% (M 75.93%, F81.63%). 2. def index per person of poliomyelitis children was 2.37 (M 2.00, F 2.91) and was low in number compare with that of 3.29 (M 3.33, F 3.24) in control group children. 3. DMF rate of the poliomyelitis children was 59.41% (M 54.55%, F 62.79%) and was higher value than that of 48.28% (M 37.88%, F 59.96%) in control group. 4. DMF incidence per person in poliomyelitis was 1.62 (M1.48, F1.89) and was also higher in number than that of 1. 220 (M 0.85, F 1.49) in control group. 5. The dental caries incidence was higher in female than in male.

To investigate the prevalence and etiologic factors of nursing caries, oral examination was performed on 1,100 kindergarten children from 6 Seoul areas and 3 Hongchun areas. Parents were asked to fill out questionnaires. The following results were obtained: 1. The prevalence of nursing caries among 1,100 in the sample group(age 30-75 months) was 14.8%. 2. Fathers' education level(p<0.05), mothers' education level(p<0.01) and monthly income was higher in caries-free group children. 3. When the dietary tendencies of nursing caries group and caries-free group were compared, no significant differences in the length and method of feeding were found. However, nursing caries group showed higher frequency of bedtime nursing habit(p<0.01), daytime use of bottle as a comforter(p<0.01) and other beverage feeding in addition to milk(p<0.01). 4. When the parents' awareness of caries prevention was compared, caries-free group per formed more frequent tooth cleansing(p<0.05) and periodic dental examination(p<0.01).5. Dental caries experience of mothers was significantly lower in the caries free group(p<0.05). From the above results, it can be concluded that deleterious nursing habit had great effect on developing nursing caries and the incidence of nursing caries was lower among children with parents of higher socioeconomic status.

본 연구는 상악 유전치부의 치간공간과 인접면 우식의 상관관계를 평가해보고자 하였다. 익산에 거주하는 만3-7세의 어린이 555명을 대상으로 하였으며 탐침이 통과하는지 여부로 치간공간이 있음과 없음으로 분류하였고 와동이 형성되었거나 법랑질 표면이 연화되었을 경우 인접면 우식이 존재하는 것으로 판단하였다. 연구 결과 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. 상악 유전치부의 치간공간은 영장류 공간이 77.4%, 발육공간이 유측절치와 유중절치 사이에서 54.4%, 양유중절치 사이에서 39.0%로 나타났다. 2. 인접면 우식발생율은 우측유견치가 6.3%, 우측유측절치가 14.7%, 우측유중절치가 33.5%, 좌측유중절치가 33.7%, 좌측유측절치가 16.0%, 좌측유견치가 4.7%로 나타났다. 3. 치간공간의 수가 많을수록 상악 유전치의 우식발생율은 낮아졌으나 그 상관관계(r=-0.024)는 미약하였다. 4. 상악 유전치부에 공간이 존재하지 않을 경우 존재할 때 보다 평균 우식발생율이 높았으며, 치간공간이 전혀 존재하지 않는 경우 한 곳이라도 치간공간이 존재하는 경우보다 평균 우식발생율이 2배 이상 높은 것으로 나타났다.

The author examined 515 full mouth roentgenograms stored in the Dept. of Oral Radiology, College of Dentistry, Seoul National University. For evaluating the efficiency of the routine full mouth roentgenogram, each of abnormal conditions such as impacted teeth, missing, caries, crown, filling and apical lesions was observed. The results obtained were as follows; 1. Among 14.420 teeth examined, missing teeth were 174, impacted 16, caries 161 and treated 1,162. 2. The incidence of impacted third molar was close to 18.7 percent and the incidence of missing third molar was about 33.4 percent. 3. Among carious and treated teeth, 178 teeth (1.2%) were needed observation of root apex. And of these teeth, 119 teeth 0.8% were observed with apical lesion. 4. There is a considerable relation between the incidence or size of apical lesion and the accuracy of endodontical treat. 5. Among the teeth with apical lesion, upper and lower first molars were most frequent (about 41%), upper and lower canine were rare (about 1.7%).

Dental caries is multifactorial local disease which involves destruction of the hard tissues of the teeth by metabolities produces by microorganisms. Recently, there has been growing interest in the role of nitric oxide (NO) and glutathione (GSH) in caries incidence. The aim of the study was to survey the studies reported the association among salivary NO, GSH and dental careis. Three studies reported the association between NO and dental caries. However, the results were contradictory. Only one study showed negative association between GSH and dental caries. In Korea, NO showed negative association with Lactobacilli and GSH showed positive association with dental caries. These observations suggest the possibility that NO and GSH could be new biomarkers for dental caries. However, further study should be needed.
