台灣三歲以下幼兒之齲齒型態

Taiwanese Children Aged under Three Types of Dental Caries

摘要


研究目的:了解台灣三歲以下幼兒之齲齒型態。方法:本研究採分層多階段隨機集束抽樣調查法,收集台灣三歲以下幼兒口腔檢查結果的資料。口腔檢查以WHO頒布之標準為依據,並做齲齒型態的分類。結果:共收集665位三歲以下幼兒的資料。其中下顎第二乳臼齒是最易發生齲齒的乳牙。依O'Sullivan之齲齒型態分類,齲齒型態以「只有上顎前牙齲齒型」佔最多。結論:台灣三歲前幼兒之齲齒狀況不佳,乳齒列齲齒的預防,應該在乳牙萌出前即開始。

Objectives: Purpose of this study is to analyze caries patterns of children aged under three years old in Taiwan.Materials and Methods: The research was conducted on children aged under three years old selected by stratified cluster sampling in Taiwan. The protocol of examination was based upon the criteria from WHO, and the data was analyzed for caries patterns.Results: Data of 665 children under three years of age were collected. The mandibular second primary molars were the most susceptible teeth in the primary dentition. According to the O'Sullivan's Caries Classification, the caries patterns are mainly ”restricted to maxillary anterior teeth”.Conclusions: The caries status of children under three years of age is still poor in Taiwan. Early caries prevention programs should start with children before tooth eruption.
