Objective: Factors of creating dental caries include host, pathogen and environment and dietary factor among environmental factors is affected by viscosity and sugar content that are physical properties of food. Relative cariogenic potential index is to estimate dental caries inducing index reflecting sugar content and viscosity by each food in order to prevent dental caries and it is expressed as multiplication of sugar contents (Brix degree) and viscosity.
Methods: Beverage was classified into 10 types and it was divided into energy drink, children’s beverage, hangover relieving drink, soybean milk product, sports drink, coffee product, carbonated drink, milk product (white milk), fruit beverage and functional beverage.
Results: The sweet was the most in hangover beverage as 16. Twenty-four Brix and the different with the other beverages statistically (p＜0.05). Viscosity was the most in soy milk as 4.67 centipoise and different from other beverage (p＜0.05). The relative caries potentiality index was revealed the most in soy milk and different from other beverage (p＜0.05). There was no relationship between the sweet degree and the viscosity of the beverage.
Conclusion: In connection with cariogenic potential index, as Brix of hangover relieving beverage, viscosity and relative car-iogenic potential index of soybean milk were measured to be the highest, it is considered that the result of this study would be utilized for a data in guiding and educating oral cavity health in the future together with a research on preventive method for reducing hazard activity of Brix and viscosity when taking food and beverage.
