Abstract

Abstract

Objective To explore the prevention and control effects of different management modes on children with high risk of dental caries from some kindergartens in Zhangjiagang, and to provide a basis for relevant departments to formulate oral health management strategy. Methods In September 2020, 1 600 children aged 3 years old from 9 towns in Zhangjiagang were sampled by cluster sampling method for baseline survey, including oral examination, questionnaire survey and caries susceptibility test. According to the risk assessment criteria, high-risk children were screened out and divided into two groups. In the experimental group, the frequency of fluoride application was once every 3 months, combined with behavioral management and oral health guidance. In the control group, fluoride application was conducted once every 6 months, combined with behavioral management and oral health guidance. The effect of caries prevention was evaluated one year later. Results The prevalence of caries in three-year-old children was 50.9% at baseline, and the prevalence of caries in boys and girls was 47.5% and 54.5%, respectively, with statistical significance (χ²=9.64, P < 0.05). A total of 1 090 high-risk children were screened out, including 475 in experimental group and 615 in control group. The prevalence of caries in the two groups at baseline was 74.1% and 75.1%, respectively, and dmft were (2.98±3.33) and (3.04±3.16), respectively, with no significant difference (χ²/t=0.15, 0.28, P>0.05). One year after intervention, the prevalence of caries in the two groups was 78.5% and 83.0%, respectively and dmft were (4.22±3.97) and (4.51±4.08), respectively, with no statistical significance (χ²/t=3.17, 0.05, P>0.05). The incidence of new caries in the experimental group was 3.7%, and the incidence of new caries was (1.26±1.69), lower than 7.6% and (1.45±2.04) in the control group, with statistical significance (χ²/t=6.89, 5.05, P < 0.05). Conclusion The frequency of fluorination intervention once every 3 months combined with behavior management mode was more effective in controlling new caries in children with high risk of caries.
