RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: This 3-year multicentre randomised controlled trial compared, in 6-7-year-old Colombian children, the effectiveness of the ICCMS (International Caries Classification and Management System) with a conventional caries-management system (CCMS) in terms of individual caries-risk, caries lesions, and secondarily, oral-health-related knowledge/attitudes/practices, and number of appointments. MATERIAL AND METHODS: With ethical approval, 240 6-7-year olds from six Colombian clinics were recruited. Trained examiners conducted the following baseline/follow-up assessments: Caries risk (Cariogram-ICCMS); caries severity/activity staging (ICDAS-merged combined radiographic/visual); sealants/fillings/missing teeth, and oral-health-related knowledge, attitudes and practices. Children received their randomly allocated (ICCMS/CCMS) care from dental practitioners. Outcomes: caries-risk control (children); caries-progression control (tooth surfaces); oral-health-related knowledge/attitudes/practices improvement (parents/children), and appointments' number (children). Descriptive and non-parametric/parametric bivariate analyses were performed. RESULTS: Three-year-follow-up: n = 187 (77.9%; ICCMS: n = 92; CCMS: n = 95) disclosed a baseline-to-3-year overall high-caries-risk children decrease (ICCMS: 60.9-0%, p < .001; CCMS: 54.7-5.3%, p < .001) (p > .05). ICCMS versus CCMS showed: fewer tooth-surface caries progression (6.2% vs 7.1%, p = .010) and fewer active-caries lesions (49.8% vs. 59.1%, p < .05); higher proportion of children with ≥2/day fluoride-toothpaste tooth-brushing practice (p < .05); similar mean number of appointments (10.9 ± 5.9 vs. 10.0 ± 3.8, p = .15). CONCLUSION: Both caries-management systems showed similar effectiveness in caries-risk control, with ICCMS more effectively controlling tooth-surface caries progression and improving toothbrushing practices.

Resumen Introducción y objetivo: la severidad de la fluorosis dental refleja exposición a fluoruros durante el desarrollo del esmalte. Recientemente se han reportado asociaciones entre la exposición prenatal y postnatal a fluoruros y efectos negativos en el neurodesarrollo. El objetivo de este estudio fue describir y comparar la severidad y el patrón de distribución de la fluorosis en las denticiones primaria y permanente, como base para discutir la temporalidad de la exposición en niños viviendo en áreas endémicas en el departamento del Huila. Materiales y métodos: odontólogos entrenados diagnosticaron fluorosis en 840 niños (preescolares y escolares) de cuatro municipios usando el índice de Thylstrup & Fejerskov. Para estimar la prevalencia de las diferentes severidades, cada niño se clasifico de acuerdo con la severidad más alta en boca. La distribución de la prevalencia de severidades por grupo etario y tipo de dentición se reportan como tasas de prevalencia (%). Resultados: la prevalencia en preescolares y escolares fue de 97.2% y 99.9%, respectivamente y la fluorosis moderada la más prevalente (75.6% y 63.5%, respectivamente). En ambas denticiones, la fluorosis leve fue más prevalente en los dientes anteriores que en posteriores. Las severidades moderada y severa tuvieron mayor prevalencia en dientes posteriores que en anteriores. Conclusiones: el patrón de distribución de la severidad de la fluorosis sugiere exposición prenatal y postnatal a fluoruros, por encima de los niveles recomendados. Este estudio resalta la importancia de la alidación de la fluorosis del dental como un potencial biomarcador histórico de exposición a luoruros en momentos críticos para el neurodesarrollo.
Resumo Introdução e objetivo: a severidade da fluorose dentária reflete a exposição a fluoretos durante o desenvolvimento do esmalte. Recentemente, associações entre a exposição pré-natal e pós-natal ao fluoretos e efeitos negativos no desenvolvimento neurológico foram relatadas. O objetivo deste estudo é descrever e comparar o padrão de severidade e distribuição da fluorose na dentição decídua e permanente, como intuito para a discussão sobre a temporalidade da exposição em crianças moradoras em áreas endêmicas de fluorose no departamento de Huila, Colômbia. Materiais e métodos: Cirurgiões-dentistas treinados diagnosticaram fluorose em 840 crianças (pré-escolares e escolares) de quatro municípios, utilizando o índice de Thylstrup & Fejerskov. Para estimar a prevalência dos diferentes estágios de severidade, cada criança foi classificada de acordo com o escore mais severo da boca. A distribuição da prevalência de fluorose nos diferentes estágios de severidade por faixa etária e tipo de dentição é apresentada como taxa de prevalência (%). Resultados: a prevalência de fluorose em pré-escolares foi de 97,2% e em escolares de 99,9%. Fluorose moderada foi a mais prevalente (75,6% e 63,5%, respectivamente). Em ambas as dentições, a fluorose leve foi mais prevalente nos dentes anteriores do que nos posteriores. Porém, tanto fluorose moderada como severa foram mais prevalentes nos dentes posteriores do que nos anteriores. Conclusões: o padrão de distribuição da severidade da fluorose sugere uma exposição pré- e pós-natal a fluoretos acima de níveis recomendados. Este estudo salienta a importância da validação da fluorose dentária como um potencial biomarcador histórico da exposição ao fluoretos durante momentos críticos para o neurodesenvolvimento.
Abstract Introduction and objective: dental fluorosis severity reflects fluoride exposure during dental enamel development. Recently, prenatal and postnatal exposure to fluoride has been associated with negative neurodevelopmental outcomes. The aim of this study was to describe and compare the severity and distribution pattern of dental fluorosis in the primary and permanent dentition, as a basis to discuss the timing and extent of fluoride exposure of children living in endemic areas of fluorosis in the department of Huila. Materials and methods: 840 children (preschoolers and schoolchildren) from four municipalities of the Huila Department were examined by trained dentists for dental fluorosis using the Thylstrup & Fejerskov Index. To estimate the prevalence of severities of fluorosis, each child was classified according to the most severe score. The distribution of the prevalence of enamel fluorosis severity by age-group and type of dentition were reported as prevalence rates (%). Results: Prevalence of dental fluorosis in preschoolers was of 97.2% and in schoolers of 99.9%. For both preschoolers and schoolers moderate fluorosis was the most prevalent (75.6% and 63.5%, respectively). For both primary and permanent teeth, mild fluorosis was more prevalent in anterior teeth than in posterior teeth. Moderate and severe fluorosis were more prevalent in posterior teeth than in anterior teeth. Conclusions: the distribution pattern of the severity of dental fluorosis suggests both prenatal and postnatal exposure to fluoride above recommended levels. This study raises the importance of the validation of dental fluorosis as a potential historical biomarker of fluoride exposure at moments that are critical for neurodevelopment.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: To assess common dietary erosive-tooth-wear (ETW) risk in university students from an exotic-fruit country comparing index teeth vs. full mouth ETW assessment. METHODS: A risk factors' questionnaire was applied on 601 18-25 years old subjects in Bogotá-Colombia. Trained examiners assessed clinically: ETW (BEWE) on all buccal, occlusal and lingual surfaces and ICDAS caries experience (ICDAS-DMFS). Full-arch and index-teeth (buccal of upper-central incisors and occlusal of lower-first molars) maximum-BEWE score categorized patients into: with- (2-3) and without wear (0-1). These were compared in terms of demographic, clinical, dietary and other factors with crude and logistic regression models. RESULTS: Students' mean age was 20.0⯱â¯1.9 (77.7% females). Most consumed fruits were erosive/extremely erosive (57%). Prevalence of wear was 73% (full-mouth) vs. 19.6% (index-teeth). Full-mouth-BEWE correlated significantly with teeth-index-BEWE score but low (0.31, pâ¯<â¯0.001). Besides anterior-teeth incisal surfaces, occlusal of lower molars (16%) and buccal of upper central incisors (3.3%) showed highest wear frequency. Straw use or 1â¯-h waiting for toothbrushing didn't show a protective effect. ETW was significantly associated on index teeth with frequent intakes of dietary acids (≥3 daily-acidic drinks and ≥4 daily-fruit portions) (single-variable-logistic regression: OR 4.41, pâ¯=â¯0.22 and OR 1.60, pâ¯=â¯0.035; multivariable-logistic regression: OR 4.47, pâ¯=â¯0.022 and OR 1.63, pâ¯=â¯0.036 respectively). No significant differences were noticed between groups when the full-mouth maximum score was used. CONCLUSION: This young cohort showed dietary ETW associated with frequent dietary acids' intakes and grading ETW on index teeth vs. full mouth was a more sensitive measurement method to assess underlying ETW risk factors. The teeth index has promising usefulness for the clinic and epidemiology. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: Using index teeth (buccal of upper central incisors and occlusal of lower first molars) for ETW (BEWE) assessment allowed to show association in young adults between frequent daily exotic fruits/fruit juices dietary-acid consumption and ETW, representing a less time consuming clinical/epidemiological method of ETW measurement than a full mouth examination.

We estimated the impact of the Zika virus outbreak on birth rates and demand for health care services in Colombia. Our analysis exploits the variation in the level of natural protection against mosquito-transmitted diseases across the country. This characteristic induced exogenous variation in Zika incidence, which allows us to construct a control group of municipalities with similar historical fertility trends but with differential exposure to the Zika crisis. We implemented a difference-in-differences model after matching, as well as synthetic control. We found a decrease in birth rates of approx. 10% in the last two quarters of 2019. The impact of the virus was similar irrespective of the women's education level, and we found no discernible impact on teenage pregnancy.

A caries-epidemiological study using the ICDASepi-merged system was conducted in Colombian young children. This study aimed at associating the time needed for the clinical examination of caries and caries risk in 1 to 5-year-old children according to age and caries risk, and to assess behavior and child pain self-perception during examination according to age. After IRB approval and given parents/caregivers' informed consent, seven trained examiners assessed 1 to 5-year olds in kindergartens under local field conditions. ICDASepi-merged caries experience (depiMEmf) was assessed as follows: Initial-depi (ICDAS 1/2 without air-drying); Moderate-dM (ICDAS 3,4); Extensive-dE (ICDAS 5,6) lesions; due-to-caries fillings-f and missing-m surfaces/teeth. Caries risk was assessed with Cariogram®. Child's behavior (Frankl-Behavior-Rating-Scale) and self-perceived pain (Visual-Analogue-Scale-of-Faces) during examination were evaluated. Clinical examination time was recorded with a stopwatch. A total of 592 children participated (1-yr.: n=31; 2-yrs.: n=96; 3-yrs.: n=155; 4-yrs.: n=209, 5-yrs.: n=101). The depiMEmfs prevalence was of 79.9% and the mean 8.4±10.4. Most were high-caries-risk children (68.9%). The majority (58.9%) showed ≥ positive-behavior and ≤ light-pain self-perception (88.4%). Mean clinical examination time was around 3.5 minutes (216.9±133.9 seconds). For 5-yr. olds it corresponded to 4 minutes (240.4±145.0 seconds) vs. 2 minutes (122.8±80.1 seconds) for 1-yr. olds (Kruskal-Wallis; p=0.00). For high- and low-caries risk children it was around 4.3 minutes (255.7±118.5 seconds) and 3.3 minutes (201.3±129.4 seconds), respectively (ANOVA; p=0.01). This study demonstrates using the ICDAS system in young children is feasible, taking less than 4 minutes for the clinical examination without children behavior/pain self-perception issues.

Resumo Um estudo epidemiológico de cárie usando o sistema ICDAS foi realizado em crianças pequenas colombianas. O objetivo deste estudo foi associar o tempo necessário para o exame clínico da cárie e o risco de cárie em crianças de 1 a 5 anos de acordo com a idade e o risco de cárie e avaliar a autopercepção do comportamento e da dor na criança durante o exame, de acordo com a idade. Após a aprovação do comitê de ética e do consentimento informado dos pais/responsáveis, sete examinadores treinados avaliaram crianças de 1 a 5 anos em creches em condições locais de campo. A experiência de cárie do ICDAS (depiMEmf) foi avaliada da seguinte forma: Epi-depi inicial (ICDAS 1/2 sem secagem ao ar); Moderado-dM (ICDAS 3,4); lesões extensas de dE (ICDAS 5,6); restaurações devido a cárie -f e superfícies/dentes ausentes-m. O risco de cárie foi avaliado com Cariogram®. O comportamento de crianças (Frankl-Behavior-Rating-Scale) e a autopercepção de dor (Escala Visual-Analógica-de-Rostos) durante o exame foram avaliados. O tempo de exame clínico foi registrado com um cronômetro. 592 crianças participaram (1 ano: n = 31; 2 anos: n = 96; 3 anos: n = 155; 4 anos: n = 209, 5 anos: n = 101 ). A prevalência do depiMEmfs foi de 79,9% e a média de 8,4 ± 10,4. A maioria era de crianças com alto risco de cárie (68,9%). A maioria (58,9%) apresentou ≥ comportamento positivo e ≤ autopercepção de dor leve (88,4%). O tempo médio de exame clínico foi em torno de 3,5 min (216,9 ± 133,9 s). Para crianças de 5 anos, correspondeu a 4 min (240,4 ± 145,0 s) vs. 2 min (122,8 ± 80,1 s) para crianças de 1 ano de idade (Kruskal-Wallis; p = 0,00). Para crianças com alto e baixo risco de cárie, foi em torno de 4,3 min (255,7 ± 118,5 s) e 3,3 min (201,3 ± 129,4 s), respectivamente (ANOVA; p = 0,01). Este estudo demonstra que a utilização do sistema ICDAS em crianças pequenas é viável, levando menos de 4 min para o exame clínico sem problemas de autopercepção de comportamento/ dor em crianças.

The aim of this study was to assess whether caries risk, nutritional status, access to dental care and socio-behavioral factors are associated to two caries experience outcome variables using the Epidemiologic International Caries Detection and Assessment System (ICDASepi), which includes initial enamel caries lesions: 1- The presence of ICDAS-epi caries experience (dmf-ICDASepi ≥ 1), and 2- Having an ICDAS-epi caries experience (dmft-ICDASepi) higher than national figures for the same age. The sample included 316 eight- to 71-month-old children from the municipality of Anapoima, Colombia. Assessments included: prevalence and mean of caries experience using the ICDASepi system without compressed air-drying of teeth surfaces (dmf-ICDASepi), caries risk and nutritional status. Caregivers completed an elevenitem questionnaire assessing oral health-related social determinants, practices and quality of life (OHRQoL), and children's access to dental care. Data were analysed using the Wilcoxon-rank-sum test, the test, the Fisher-exact test, and bivariate-linear and non-conditioned logistic-multivariate regression models. Prevalence and mean number of teeth with dmft-ICDASepi were 65. 2% and 3. 5±4. 13, respectively. Nutritional status outside the normal status, lower educational level of caregivers and age were significantly associated with dmf-ICDASepi≥ 1. OHRQoL, access barriers to miss and to attend dental care, operative-treatment or emergency being the reason to attend dental care, high caries risk, and age were significantly associated with a higher-than-national dmft-ICDASepi. The significant associations found between early childhood caries experience and other variables represent oral-health inequalities in early childhood in Anapoima, Colombia.
El objetivo de este estudio fue evaluar en la primera infancia la asociación entre el riesgo de caries, el estado nutricional, el acceso a la consulta odontológica y los factores socio-comportamentales y dos variables de desenlace de experiencia de caries usando el Sistema epidemiológico Internacional de Detección y Valoración de Caries (ICDASepi), que incluye lesiones de caries en el esmalte: 1-La presencia de experiencia de caries ICDAS-epi (ceod-ICDASepi ≥ 1) y, 2- Tener una experiencia de caries ICDASepi (ceod-ICDASepi) mayor que los datos nacionales correspondientes para la misma edad. La muestra fue de 316 niños del municipio de Anapoima, Colombia, de 8 a 71 meses de edad. Las valoraciones incluyeron: prevalencia y promedio de experiencia de caries usando el sistema ICDASepi sin secado de las superficies de los dientes con aire comprimido (dmf-ICDASepi); riesgo de caries y estado nutricional. Los cuidadores respondieron un cuestionario de once ítems que valoraba en relación con salud oral, determinantes sociales, prácticas y calidad de vida y, el acceso de los niños a la consulta odontológica. Los datos fueron analizados con la prueba de suma de rangos de Wilcoxon, la prueba de χ2, la prueba exacta de Fisher y, modelos de regresión logística multivariada tipos bivariantelineal y no condicionada. La prevalencia de experiencia de caries (ceod-ICDASepi) fue de 65. 18% y el promedio de dientes con ceod-ICDASepi de 3. 5 ± 4. 13. El estado nutricional por fuera de rangos de normalidad, el bajo nivel educativo de los cuidadores y la edad se asociaron significativamente con ceo-ICDASepi ≥ 1. Se encontró asociación estadísticamente significativa entre tener un ceod-ICDASepi mayor que el promedio nacional y, calidad de vida relacionada con salud oral, barreras de acceso para perder y asistir a consulta odontológica, tratamiento operatorio o urgencia como motivo de consulta odontológica, alto riesgo de caries y edad. Las asociaciones estadísticamente significativas encontradas en este estudio entre la experiencia de caries de infancia temprana y demás variables representan inequidades en salud oral en la primera infancia en Anapoima, Colombia.

OBJECTIVE: To report (1) the caries experience prevalence and mean, and the caries severity and distribution patterns, expressed clinically and combined with radiographs with the conventional and ICCMS™ systems in young children from Bogotá, Colombia; (2) the contribution of including radiographs to the clinical caries scoring and (3) in which surfaces the radiograph adds to the clinical caries registration. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Six hundred children from kindergartens/schools were enrolled: Cohort A: 2-year (n = 200), Cohort B: 4-year (n = 200) and Cohort C: 6-year (n = 200) olds. Radiographs were taken of the 4- and 6- year olds. Children were examined clinically using the Clinical (C) and Radiographic (R) ICCMS™-epi Caries Scoring Systems, staging caries lesions (d) as: Initial (Cepi/RA), Moderate (CM/RB) or Extensive (CE/RC). Caries experience including missing (m) and filled (f) surfaces was expressed as follows: clinical conventional (CdMEmfs); clinical ICCMS™ (CdepiMEmfs); combined conventional (C + RdMEmfs) and combined ICCMS™ (C + RdepiMEmfs). RESULTS: The prevalence of CdMEmfs was: Cohort A: 32%; Cohort B: 59%; Cohort C: 67.5%, increasing to 73.5%, 99.8% and 100%, respectively, with the C + R depiMEmfs. The CdMEmfs means doubled when initial caries lesions (Cdepi) and radiographs (R) were included. The d component corresponded to over two-thirds of the caries experience. Findings on the radiographs significantly raised caries experience prevalence and means (p < .02), detecting primarily approximal lesions. Surfaces with highest caries frequency were occlusal/approximal of molar teeth and buccal of upper incisor teeth. CONCLUSION: Participants' caries experience was high. The radiographic assessment significantly contributed to caries experience. Molar and upper incisor teeth were most prone to caries.

Describe el desarrollo de la dentición permanente (Nolla), la frecuencia de agenesias/supernumerarios en radiografías panorex de niños con/sin labio-paladar-fisurado. Evalúa la asociación de riesgo entre agenesias y labio-paladar-fisurado. Se evaluaron 153-radiografías panorámicas de niños de 6-8-años sin historia de exodoncias, 53 con labio-paladar-fisurado (59.6 porciento-hombres-40.4 por ciento-mujeres) 37 con fisura-unilateral (13 derechos / 24-izquierdos), 16 con fisura-bilateral y 100 controles-sin-fisura. Los resultados se expresaron en distribución de frecuencias. Para detectar diferencias en el desarrollo de la dentición entre dientes pares se utilizó la prueba t-pareada y para evaluar riesgo de agenesias el Odds Ratio-(IC 95 por ciento). El número de dientes erupcionados y sin erupcionar mostró una distribución similar en ambos grupos (p=0.964); el desarrollo de la dentición-Nolla se encontró simétrico y acorde con la edad excepto en el par 11-21-(p=0.025) y 37-47-(p=0.02) del grupo sin-hendidura y en 11-21-(p=0.018) del grupo con hendidura-unilateral-derecha donde se observó un desarrollo diferente entre pares. La agenesia y supernumerarios se encontraron más en el grupo con-hendidura-(p menor que 0.05)-con 55 por ciento-9 por ciento respectivamente; el diente comprometido con mayor frecuencia fue el lateral superior. Se pudo establecer asociación de riesgo entre agenesia dental y fisura-unilateral (derecha OR=45/izquierda OR=32) y agenesia dental con hendidura-bilateral-(OR=19). Los resultados evidencian que la hendidura es un factor de riesgo significativo para presentar anormalidades en la formación dental como agenesia dental.
Describes permanent dentition development (Nolla-criteria), the frequence of congenitally missing/supernumerary teeth in panorex-x-rays (radiographies) of children with/without cleft-lip-plate. Evaluates the risk-association between congenitally missing teeth and cleft-lip-plate. 153 panoramic- x-rays (radiographies) of 6-8 years old children without history of exodontias were evaluated; 53 with cleft-lift-palate (59.6-male, 40.4 per cent-female): 37-unilateral-cleft (13-right/24-left), 16-bilateral-cleft, and 100 control individuals without cleft-lip-palate. Results were expressed in frequence-distribution. Paired T-test was used to detect development differences between pair-teeth, and Odds Ratio (IC 95 per cent) to evaluate the risk of congenitally missing teeth. The number of erupted and no-erupted teeth showed a similar distribution in both groups (p=0.964); dental development (Nolla) was found symmetrical and corresponding to age except in pairs 11-2 (p=0.025) and 37-47 (p=0.02) of the group without cleft, and in 11-21 (p=0.018) of the group with unilateral ûright-cleft where different development among pairs is observed. Congenitally missing teeth and supernumeraries were more common in the group with cleft-lip-palate (p less than 0.05) with 55 per cent-9 per cent respectively; the tooth more frequently involved was the upper lateral incisor. Risk association between congenitally-missing-teeth and unilateral-cleft (right OR=45/left OR=32), and cleft-lip-palate is a significant risk factor to present dental development abnormalities like congenitally missing teeth.
