“…In Croatia 30% of children aged 3-5 develop early childhood caries (9). Similar results were reported for some parts of Serbia (30.5%) (15), and in Bulgaria (32%) (16). The lowest prevalence of early childhood caries was reported in Canada, at 5% (17).…”

“…Generally, ECC aetiology cannot be discussed without mentioning the socioeconomic aspect supported by different variables. Tušek et al find higher rates of ECC in ethnic minorities in the South Backa District, Republic of Serbia (9). Similarly, in Rotterdam, the Netherlands, caries is found to be more prevalent in children living in socially disadvantaged districts (20).…”

“…Fermentable carbohydrates, unhealthy nutritional habits mainly related to breastfeeding and bottle-feeding at night, frequent meals and high intake of sugary food/drinks between meals play an inevitable role in the development of ECC (5). Moreover, there are a number of other examined factors that predispose infants to ECC and that are related to poor oral hygiene, non-use of dental services, children's general health, socioeconomic background, parental education, living conditions, race, culture, ethnicity, and many more (7)(8)(9)(10). Specific life circumstance of participants will determine which of these factors are significant.…”

Objective: The aim of the study was to investigate risk factors for S-ECC among infants under 24 months of age living in Banja Luka, Bosnia and Herzegovina.Methods: A cross-sectional population-based study was carried out. Considering inclusion criteria, the total sample consisted of 192 examined infants under 24 months of age. Parents/caregivers were interviewed ahead of each dental examination of children. Following data collection, outcome measures were: the presence/absence of S-ECC (children with at least one active early carious lesion on the smooth surfaces of the maxillary anterior teeth/caries-free children) and the severity of dental caries (no caries, initial caries and cavitated caries lesion).Results: Overall results of the study indicated that 22.9% of infants had initial caries, while 12.0% (95% CI: 8.1-17.3) of infants had at least one cavitated carious lesion. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the age of infants (p < 0.001) and family monthly income (p = 0.003) variables were statistically significant predictors for the development of caries.Conclusions: This research found that the most important risk predictors for the development and severity (intensity) of S-ECC in infants under 24 months of age were low monthly income of parents and the infant's age.

ObjetivoDeterminar la prevalencia y factores de riesgo asociados a la caries temprana de la infancia (CTI) en la población urbana rural de la comuna de Panguipulli.Materiales y métodosEstudio de corte transversal. Cuatro examinadores calibrados (kappa = 0.82) utilizaron los criterios de la OMS (ceod) modificados para incluir lesiones no cavitadas (c1). Se consideró CTI utilizando el criterio de la AAPD. Se invitó a participar a los padres y preescolares matriculados al 2013 en la comuna dePanguipulli. Se obtuvo la autorización del comité de ética de investigación del Servicio de Salud Valdivia. El tamaño muestral requerido fue de 271 asumiendo una prevalencia del 70% y un error del 5%. Los datos de riesgo se obtuvieron mediante un cuestionario administrado personal o telefónicamente Se realizaron análisisunivariados, bivariados y multivariados para identificar el mejor modelo explicativo de CTI en esta población.ResultadosLa muestra final fue de 330 niños con 178 niños y 152 niñas. La edad promedio (desviación estándar) fue 4.4(0.74) años en niños y 4.3(0.74) en niñas. La prevalencia de CTI fue de 66.4% IC95%[61.3, 71.5]. Luego de excluir variables con bajo poder explicativo, el modelo final que mejor explica la CTI en esta poblaciónincluyó la presencia de placa dental visible, falta de huerta y consumo de bebidas azucaradas.ConclusiónLa prevalencia de CTI en la comuna de Panguipulli es mayor a la media nacional. Esto sugiere que la intervención debe comenzar antes de los 6 años. Los factores de riesgo asociados sugieren la necesidad de intervenciones sociales. El hallazgo que la falta de huerta sea un factor de riesgo abre alternativas interesantes deintervenciones preventivas en comunidades de bajo nivel socioeconómico.
