Abstract

|

Objectives: The objective of this study was to analyze dental caries incidence in the permanentteeth of 12-year-old children.
Methods: This study used the raw data from the 2015 Korean children’s oral health survey. Participants of the research were 12-year-old children in their first year of middle school. A total of27,291 people participated in the questionnaire and oral examination. Statistical analysis was performed using complex samples frequency analysis and contingency coefficient phi (φ).
Results: Dental caries predominately developed symmetrically with a higher tendency for left-rightsymmetry than for maxillary-mandibular symmetry in the mouth. The incidence of dental cariesbetween adjacent teeth had a statistically significant correlation and was highest in the first andsecond premolars.
Conclusions: Information on symmetry in the development of dental caries and the association ofdental caries incidence between adjacent teeth of 12-year-old children should be actively utilizedwhen establishing evidence-based dental caries management plans.
