Abstract: Taking into consideration the problem, which the patients face, with erosions of the teeth, our study is focused toward examining the consumption of carbonated and fruit drinks during the day, as a potential risk factor, in the development of erosive tissue, depending on the age of the patients, and salivary values of calcium and phosphates, and their association with the onset of dental erosions. In the presented distribution of data which take into consideration the consumption of carbonated drinks in the listed groups, for Pearson Chi-square=12,75and p<0,05(=0,047, there is a significant difference. In the displayed distribution of information relating to the consumption of fruit juices in these groups the Pearson Chi-square = 16,19 and p <0,05 (p = 0,01) and there is no significant difference. The average value of calcium (x=0,02mmol/l), in the group of examinees from 50 and > years, for p<0,05(p=0,04), is significantly lower, than, the average value of cal...

Objective To determine the strength of association (expressed as Odds Ratios) of potential risk factors with erosion and tooth wear in 14-yearold schoolchildren. Design A random sample of 2,385 children were selected by a stratified two-stage technique based on schools and children. Setting Schools in NW England. Methods Tooth wear was assessed by one examiner on three surfaces of all 12 anterior teeth (labial, incisal and palatal) and the occlusal surface of all four first molars using a four-point scale. Enamel wear was scored 0, dentine exposure <1/3 scored 1, >1/3 scored 2 and secondary dentine or pulpal exposure, scored 3. A questionnaire enquired about general health, dental health, habits and the frequency of intake of a wide range of foods and drinks. Results The Odds Ratios for tooth wear on any surface for habits, reflux and certain foods were: bruxism, 1.10; stomach upset, 1.45; pickles 1.86; vinegar 1.36; salt and vinegar crisps 1.33; brown/other sauces 1.57. Similarly, the odds ratios for potentially erosive drinks were: fizzy drinks 1.32; sport drinks 1.58; herbal/lemon tea 3.97. The frequency of intake was bi-modal with 397 children drinking a can per day and 207 drinking two cans per day. A significant number drank acidic beverages at bedtime but this was not associated with dental erosion. Conclusion Although odds ratios greater than unity indicate an association, this was not high for carbonated beverages and many other acidic foods or drinks. Examining at fourteen years may not be ideal, as the determinants of erosion/tooth wear have not acted for long, the indices do not discriminate sufficiently and proportionately few subjects have dentine exposed on smooth surfaces.

Objective To assess the association between erosive tooth wear (ETW) and consumption of different kinds of beverages in a group of schoolchildren 11-14 years old in Mexico City. Methods Cross-sectional study in a sample of students (n = 512) in Mexico City. The Basic Erosive Wear Examination (BEWE) was used to quantify ETW. Beverage consumption (BC) was determined using a frequency questionnaire; beverages included pure water, natural fruit juices, milk, hot beverages, and soft drinks. Ordinal logistic regression model was used to evaluate the association between the presence of ETW and BC. Results In total, 45.7% of the schoolchildren showed an initial loss of surface texture (BEWE = 1) and 18.2% a distinct defect involving loss of dental tissue (BEWE ≥ 2) in at least one tooth. For each glass (350 ml) of milk/week, the odds of not having erosive wear (BEWE = 0) versus having an initial loss of surface texture (BEWE = 1) or of having an initial loss of surface texture versus the presence of a defect involving the loss of dental tissue (BEWE ≥ 2) decreased 4% (OR = 0.96, 95% CI 0.93-0.99, p = 0.008); for each portion of sweet carbonated beverage consumed (350 ml), the odds increased 3% (OR = 1.03, 95% CI 1.001-1.07, p = 0.046). Conclusion The intake of milk and milk-based products could be a dietary means of helping prevent ETW, especially if their consumption could replace sweet carbonated drink consumption. Clinical relevance Knowing the impact of beverage consumption on ETW helps to provide suitable recommendations for the prevention and control of ETW in order to promote tooth longevity.
The relationship between consumption of beverages and tooth wear among adults in the United States
Journal of Public Health Dentistry, 2015
To investigate the prevalence and severity of tooth wear (TW) and its relationship with consumption of beverages among adults in the United States. Methods: The National Health and Nutrition Examinations Survey data for 2003-2004 was analyzed. TW was defined as "wear on at least one surface of at least one examined tooth." Drink/juice consumption was ascertained via a Food Frequency Questionnaire processed with Diet*Calc software to obtain the average daily consumption frequency for all queried drinks and juice categories including milk. Survey-weighted descriptive and multivariable analyses with interaction terms were performed. Results: Our study sample consisted of 3,773 adults (aged 20 and above). Eighty percent of the subjects had evidence of TW, and soft drinks were the most consumed beverage. Significant interactions between the effects of age, gender, and race/ethnicity on TW were found (P < 0.001). After adjustment for demographic factors, consumption of fruit drinks was found to be significantly associated with the severity [odds ratio (OR) = 1.32 and 1.42], but not prevalence of TW. However, this trend was reversed for grape juice consumption (OR = 0.34, 0.41). Conclusions: This study demonstrates that a substantial proportion of adults had evidence of TW, which was affected by demographic factors in a complex way. Fruit drinks consumption in adults was associated with the severity of TW, but not with the prevalence of TW after adjusting for demographics. These findings are important for the development of appropriate treatment guidelines, public policy, and programs aimed at reducing TW in adults.
A multifactorial analysis of factors associated with dental erosion
British dental journal, 2004
Objectives This study prospectively examines the relationship of possible aetiological factors to the presence of tooth erosion in a cohort of children. Patients and methods A random sample of 1,753 children was examined at age 12 and 1,308 of the same children were re-examined at age 14 years. The children were asked to complete questionnaires on both occasions, 1,149 subjects gave usable replies. The erosion index used was based upon the 1993 Survey of Children's Dental Health. Results were analysed using logistic regression. Results At age 12 significant positive associations were found between erosion and decay experience (odds ratio [OR]=1.48), drinking fruit juice (OR=1.42) or fizzy pop (OR = 1.59-2.52, depending on amount and frequency). The presence of calculus (OR 0.48) or eating fruit other than apples or citrus fruit (OR 0.48) reduced the chances of erosion. High consumption of carbonated drinks increased the odds of erosion being present at 12 years by 252% and was a strong predictor of the amount of erosion found at age 14. Conclusions Of the factors investigated, a history of dental caries and a high consumption of carbonated drinks were most closely related to the presence of dental erosion. The risk of erosion bore a strong relationship to the amount and frequency of carbonated drink consumption.

A cross sectional was conducted to assess the patterns and habits of tooth surface loss in association with tooth brushing/ soft drink consumption amongst 18-34 years old. One hundred healthy patients of 18-34 years of age with tooth surface loss were included in the study. A structured Questionnaire was filled by each patient which included patients' demographic data, information on patients presenting complaints. Past dental history was also asked. Data was statistically analyzed for descriptive statistics by performing chi-square test, using SPSS version 19. p-value was set at 0.05. 12(60%) of females who consumed soft drinks sometimes, reported localized tooth surface loss in anterior teeth and 2(66.7%) of females reported generalized tooth surface loss on consumption of soft drinks. 10(52.6%) of females who brushed their teeth regularly reported localized tooth surface loss in anterior teeth and 2(50%) of females reported generalized tooth surface loss. 11(55%) of females reported localized tooth surface loss who brushed their teeth once a day and 3(60%) of females reported generalized tooth surface loss. 19(70.4%)of males who brushed their teeth for 1min reported localized tooth surface loss in anterior teeth and 2(66.7%) of males reported generalized tooth surface loss .Soft drink intake in daily life has become challenging. The present survey was done in a small sample of population to assess the correlation of tooth surface loss with soft drink consumption and improper brushing habits.
Impact of Light and Sugar-Free Beverages on Dentin Erosion - an in Vitro Study
Journal of Research in Dentistry, 2014
AIM: To compare the erosive effect of different light and sugar free beverages in relation to their regular version, on dentin. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Bovine root dentin samples were randomized into 9 different types of drinks (each n=12): Coca-cola®, Light Coca-cola®, Coca-cola® Zero, Guaraná Antartica®, Guaraná Antartica® Zero, Sprite®, Sprite® Zero, Del Valle® Passion fruit juice and Del Valle® Light Passion fruit juice. During each one of the 10 experimental days, the samples were subjected to 3 erosive demineralization (by immersion of the sample in the studied drink) and remineralization (by immersion of the sample in artificial saliva) cycles. Profilometry was evaluated at the end of the 1st, 5th and 10th days. For each type of drink, the data were tested using 2 way ANOVA and Bonferroni test (p<0.05). RESULTS: Erosive cycling with regular cola resulted in a higher wear on the first day, on the 5th day the regular drink was similar to zero and greater than light version, o...
