Notes:

N

umerous studies have related dental caries experience

of children with the frequency of their tooth brushing

or with their oral cleanliness at the time of examination.

Conflicting results were obtained and, therefore, no

conclusions may be drawn from these studies. In other

studies, the incidence of new carious lesions over a number

of years, was related to oral cleanliness during the same

period of time. These studies showed that children with

good oral hygiene had a lower caries incidence than those

with poor oral hygiene, but the differences were small.

Tooth brushing with a fluoridated toothpaste, which is now

the usual practice, is effective in reducing caries incidence.

Flossing can remove plaque from a proximal tooth surfaces,

and there is some evidence that it can reduce caries

incidence. Dental caries can be largely prevented by highly

efficient removal of plaque by tooth brushing and flossing.

However, the available evidence suggests that regular

prophylaxis by dental personnel is essential to maintain

the necessary high level of efficiency. It is not known to

what extent individuals are capable of removing their own

plaque to the same high level of efficiency. It is probable

that only highly motivated individuals can maintain such a

high standard of plaque control.
