Abstract

Background: Preterm birth is one of the leading causes of neonatal morbidity and mortality globally. Premature infants have a higher risk of developing a range of complications, including dental conditions. This pilot study aims to examine delayed tooth eruption in premature infants in the first twelve months of life, in order to identify any correlations between prematurity and early dental problems.

Materials: A longitudinal study was conducted on premature infants of the Fondazione IRCCS Ca' Granda Ospedale Maggiore Policlinico, Regina Elena Clinic, Milan, Italy comparing 2 groups of patients. The group of premature infants (group test) was evaluated between 6 and 9 months (T1) and at 12 months (T2), compared with a second group (control group) of healthy infants, born at term, between 6 and 12 months. Data were collected through clinical examinations, considering variables such as gestational age and birth weight. A descriptive statistical analysis was conducted by calculating the mean, mode, median, and standard deviation for variables such as corrected age, chronological age, and the number of teeth in both groups (premature and full-term infants). The Mann-Whitney U test was also used to verify significant differences in the median between the test and control groups.

早产儿的牙齿疾病:一项关于出生后12个月延迟出牙的初步研究。
背景:早产是全球新生儿发病和死亡的主要原因之一。早产儿患一系列并发症的风险更高,包括牙齿疾病。这项初步研究的目的是检查在生命的头12个月的早产儿延迟牙齿萌出,以确定早产和早期牙齿问题之间的任何相关性。资料:对意大利米兰Regina Elena诊所的IRCCS基金会Ca' Granda Ospedale Maggiore Policlinico早产儿进行纵向研究,比较两组患者。早产儿组(组试验)在6 - 9个月(T1)和12个月(T2)时进行评估,并与第二组(对照组)6 - 12个月足月出生的健康婴儿进行比较。通过临床检查收集数据,考虑胎龄和出生体重等变量。通过计算两组(早产儿和足月婴儿)校正年龄、实足年龄和牙齿数量等变量的平均值、众数、中位数和标准差进行描述性统计分析。Mann-Whitney U检验也用于验证实验组和对照组之间中位数的显著差异。
