Relationship Between Vitamins Deficiency and Caries Experience Among a Group of Egyptian Children

Dental Caries Clinical Trial

Official title:
Relationship Between Vitamins Deficiency and Caries Experience Among a Group of Egyptian Children: A Cross-Sectional Study

Clinical Trial Summary

Dental caries is a worldwide condition characterized by localized destruction of dental hard tissue by acidic by-products from bacterial fermentation of dietary carbohydrates . Dental caries is considered to be the single most common chronic childhood disease, and its prevalence is thought to have increased recently.

Clinical Trial Description

According to the World Health Organization "WHO", dental caries is considered a major health problem in most industrialized countries, where 60-90% of children and the vast majority of adults are affected by dental caries . Oral hygiene, salivary flow rate and unhealthy nutritional habits are considered as an etiologic factor of dental caries. Vitamin deficiencies remain common globally. Unless severe, they are often clinically unrecognized, yet even mild deficiency may have significant adverse consequences. Vitamin deficiencies affect all ages. The groups most susceptible to vitamin deficiencies are pregnant and lactating women and young children, because of their relatively high needs for these compounds and susceptibilities to their absence. These include death from infectious diseases, anemia, death during pregnancy or childbirth, and impaired cognition and physical development. The effects of vitamin deficiencies are related to the biochemical roles they play . ;
