Abstract

Introduction: Measurement of dental caries is imperative for its prevention and control. The present study was conducted with the aim of developing a dental caries index that is reliable, reversible, and valid. A cross-sectional study was designed and conducted at the outreach dental clinics of a dental school in India.

Methods and material: A total of 219 patients visiting outreach centres participated in the study. Patients attending outreach dental clinics aged 15 years and above, who were dentate and affected by dental caries, were included. Clinical examination was done under clinical conditions with dental chair lighting. Decayed Missing and Filled Teeth (DMFT) and Index of Caries Experience (ICE) were recorded using the visuo-tactile method according to the index criteria.

Results: The relationship between the DMFT and ICE was determined. Results showed that the DMFT from ICE had good correlation. The decayed teeth index (DTI) score varied from decayed teeth (DT) according to age and sex. DTI was significantly higher for females than for males and higher among younger age groups than older ones, but DT did not exhibit the differences.

Conclusions: ICE is a new system in which the proviso is to measure the non-cavitated lesions and health of permanent dentition. DMFT and ICE have good correlation. DTI is more sensitive than the DT score.

龋齿经验索引--记录龋齿的复合系统。
导言:龋齿的测量对于龋齿的预防和控制至关重要。本研究旨在开发一种可靠、可逆、有效的龋齿指数。研究设计了一项横断面研究,在印度一所牙科学校的外展牙科诊所进行:共有 219 名到外展中心就诊的患者参与了研究。外展牙科诊所的患者年龄在 15 岁及以上,有牙齿且患有龋齿。临床检查在牙科治疗椅照明的临床条件下进行。根据指标标准,采用视觉触觉法记录龋坏缺失牙(DMFT)和龋病经验指数(ICE):结果:确定了DMFT和ICE之间的关系。结果表明,DMFT 与 ICE 的相关性良好。蛀牙指数(DTI)与蛀牙(DT)的得分因年龄和性别而异。女性的蛀牙指数明显高于男性,年轻群体的蛀牙指数高于年长群体,但蛀牙指数并不存在差异:ICE是一种新的系统,其限制条件是测量永久性牙列的非龋坏和健康状况。DMFT 和 ICE 具有良好的相关性。DTI 比 DT 评分更敏感。
