Abstrakt: |
Good oral hygiene and restriction in sugar consumption have been associated with dental caries reduction. The effect of oral hygiene is mainly due to fluoridated toothpastes, which promote the demineralization of the enamel, while the consensus on the efficacy of the plaque removal by toothbrushing is not unanimous. Restriction in sugar consumption is another caries preventive measure. However, some studies made in western countries report the lack of relationship between sugar restriction and caries reduction. |
