They also received oral examination and tests of Dentocult SM and Dentocult LB. In the second year, they received second oral examination. the relation of oral health-related factors with caries increment was analyzed by chi-square test and crude and adjusted Relative Risk(RR).
Results: The caries experience rate of subjects eating snacks one or more dimes a day was 2.6 times higher than the other subjects. The caries experience rate might be higher an a group determined by Dentocult LB as Class 2 and over(adjusted RR=2.3) than the other group. The caries experience rate of a group who had thee or more primary molars affected by caries might be 2.5 times higher than the other group.
