“…Cross-sectional studies are important in estimating the prevalence of OC and in identifying highrisk individual. In this study, the male:female ratio was (1.04:1), slight male predominance had been noticed, agree with studies (Cavalcante et al, 2016, Ha et al, 2014and Patil et al, 2017, and disagree with Taweevisit et al (2018) and Ambika et al (2011) both showed slight female predominance. The prevalence of oral conditions in this study was 54.4% which was higher than reported in the nearby countries such as Turkey (26.2 %) (Parlak et al, 2006) and Iran (28%) (Jahanfar et al, 2012), possibly because the sample of the current study was from a dental center and not from general hospital, beside; high number of subjects was examined, but it was lower than a study done in India (Ambika et al, 2011), in which 1003 children 4-14 years were included in the study, the prevalence was 64.11%.…”

Prevalence studies on oral conditions affecting children are rare worldwide, and none of them was conducted in in Erbil/Kurdistan region/Iraq. The aims in the this study were to determine the prevalence and distribution of oral conditions which include both lesions and normal variations in group of patients referred to a main, public specialized poly clinics dental center. A prospective cross-sectional study was performed, the including data collected were age, gender, and site of a condition. The examination of the patients was performed under standardized conditions; using artificial light, disposable gloves, retractors, and mirror with sterile gauze to hold tip of the tongue. Statistical analysis was performed using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version 22; Fisher’s exact test; and Chi-square test. A sample of 520 children, aged range (0–13) years included in this study, 265 (51.0%) were males and 255 (49.0%) were females, divided into three age groups; 100 (19.2%) were <5 years, 274 (52.7%) were 5–9 years, and 146 (28.1%) were 10–13 years. The prevalence of oral conditions was significantly higher in 5–9 years (52.7%). The most commonly clinically diagnosed oral conditions were fissure tongue (13.1%), followed by gingivitis (9.0%) and dentoalveolar sinus (8.3%). As a first study in this age group in Erbil/Kurdistan region/Iraq, oral conditions are relatively common in the sample examined; dentist and dental practitioner should be aware for their recognition and referral for management.

“…The 6% prevalence of paediatric cases in our study was comparable with that of previous surveys of paediatric oral lesions carried out by dental facilities in different countries (see Table 4). These studies reported that~10% of specimens submitted for pathology examination come from children [1][2][3]5,7,8,14,16 . A slight female predominance was observed in the present study, in contrast to no gender predilection or a slight male predominance in these other studies.…”

“…Oral lesions in children show a spectrum which differs from that in adults, being related to growth and development, as well as specific lesions that predominate in the paediatric age group, such as vascular tumours and some types of lymphoma 1,2 . Previous studies regarding the prevalence of oral lesions in children have been based on retrospective review of pathology reports published from different regions of the world, including Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Chile, India, Nigeria, Turkey, Taiwan and Thailand, the UK and the USA [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19] . In total, 2.8-16.2% of specimens come from patients in the paediatric age group, depending on the age cut-off used to define a paediatric patient 10,11 .…”

“…Interestingly, in the qualitative analysis of this study, the age group proved to be an important modifying factor in the prevalence of oral malignancies 14 . There was a significant variation in the patients' age ranges, such as ≤12 years old 29,53 or ≤20 years old 16,19,30,36 .…”

Background Malignant neoplasms that affect children and adolescents are predominantly embryonic and generally affect blood system cells and supporting tissues. Aim This study aimed to summarize the scientific evidence about the prevalence of malignant lesions in the oral cavity of children and adolescents. Design In this systematic review and meta‐analysis (PROSPERO CRD42020158338), data were obtained from seven databases and the gray literature. Cross‐sectional observational studies on the prevalence of biopsied oral pediatric malignancies were included. The Newcastle‐Ottawa Scale assessed the quality of the included studies, and the GRADE approach evaluated the evidence certainty. The meta‐analysis prevalence was calculated using MedCalc® software, adopting a 95% confidence level (CI; random‐effect model). Results Forty‐two studies were included in the meta‐analysis. Of the 64,522 biopsies, the prevalence of malignant lesions was 1.93% (n = 1,100; 95% CI = 1.21%‐2.80%). Countries with a low socioeconomic profile showed the highest prevalence. The sample size did not influence the prevalence of oral malignancies, and unspecified lymphomas (12.08%; 95% CI = 5.73%‐20.37%) and rhabdomyosarcoma (10.53%; 95% CI = 7.28%‐14.30%) were the most common lesions. Conclusions Oral malignant lesions biopsied in children and adolescents had a prevalence of <3%, and lymphomas and sarcomas were the most prevalent lesions.
