RESUMO
Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have been reported to play an important role in the etiology of dental caries. The aim of this research was, through a systematic review, to identify SNPs recently associated with dental caries in pediatric populations. We included studies performed in humans up to 18 years of age that evaluated the relationship between SNPs and dental caries from 2017 to 2022. Articles that covered other study variables were excluded. PubMed, ScienceDirect and Web of Science were used to search for information and the included articles were evaluated with one of the Joanna Briggs Institute's tools. Twenty-five articles were selected, 60% of which were given high methodological quality. A total of 10,743 research subjects, ranging in age from 20 months to 17 years, participated in the study. The SNPs considered risk factors were identified in the genes miRNA202, VDR, AMELX, TUFT1, KLK4, MBL2, ENAM, DEFB1, HLA-DRB1, TAS1R1, DSPP, RUNX2 and MMP13; those considered protective factors were identified in the genes MMP20, AMBN, MMP9, TIMP2, TNF-α, VDR, IL1B, ENAM and HLA-DRB1. This systematic review presents the genetic polymorphisms that are associated with the etiology of caries in children and adolescents, some of which act as risk factors and others as protective factors against the disease.
Se ha reportado que los polimorfismos de nucleótido único (SNPs) juegan un papel importante en la etiología de la caries dental. El objetivo de esta investigación fue, a través de una revisión sistemática, identificar los SNPs asociados recientemente a la caries dental en poblaciones pediátricas. Se incluyeron estudios realizados en humanos de hasta 18 años de edad que evaluaron la relación entre los SNPs y la caries dental, publicados desde el 2017 hasta el 2022. Se excluyeron los artículos que abarcaron otras variables de estudio. PubMed, ScienceDirect y Web of Science se utilizaron para la búsqueda de información y los artículos incluidos fueron evaluados con una de las herramientas del Instituto Joanna Briggs. Fueron seleccionados 25 artículos, al 60% de ellos se le otorgó calidad metodológica alta. En total participaron 10,743 sujetos de invetigación, cuyas edades variaron de 20 meses a 17 años. Los SNPs considerados factores de riesgo fueron identificados en los genes miRNA202, VDR, AMELX, TUFT1, KLK4, MBL2, ENAM, DEFB1, HLA-DRB1, TAS1R1, DSPP, RUNX2 y MMP13, los considerados factores de protección se identificaron en los genes MMP20, AMBN, MMP9, TIMP2, TNF-α, VDR, IL1B, ENAM y HLA-DRB1. Esta revisión sistemática expone los polimorfismos genéticos que se encuentran asociados a la etiología de la caries en niños y adolescentes, algunos de los cuales actúan como factores de riesgo y otros como factores de protección ante la enfermedad.

Genetic factors contribute to susceptibility and resistance to fluoride exposure. The aim of this systematic review was to identify alleles/genotypes of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with dental fluorosis (DF) and to identify them as protective or risk factors. PubMed, ScienceDirect, Cochrane Library, Scopus and Web of Science were searched for articles; the last search was performed in August 2022. Human studies that analyzed the relationship between SNPs and DF published in English were included; systematic reviews and meta-analyses were excluded. Methodological quality was graded using the Joanna Briggs Institute checklist and risk of bias was assessed using the Cochrane Collaboration's tool. Eighteen articles were included, 44% of which showed high methodological quality and data from 5,625 participants aged 6 to 75 years were analyzed. The SNPs COL1A2, ESR2, DLX1, DLX2, AMBN, TUFT1, TFIP11, miRNA17, and SOD2 were considered risk factors, and ESR1, MMP20, and ENAM were considered protective factors. In conclusion, there are alleles and genotypes of different single nucleotide polymorphisms involved in increasing or decreasing the risk of developing dental fluorosis.
