Caries risk factors are factors relate to caries occurrence in individual or population. Caries risk factors vary in everyindividual. A new method to discover the relation between risk factors and caries in children is a software named childdental caries predictor This research aimed to know the general overview of the order of caries risk factor in elementaryschool students in the province of Daerah Istimewa Yogyakarta. This was an observational research with cross-sectionaldesign. The subjects were 430 children, ranging from 10 to 12 years of age. Caries risk factors that were assessed throughchild dental caries predictor were oral and dental condition, mothers and children’s behavior in maintaining dental health,and school environment. The research result showed that the percentage for each risk factor was 39.74% for oral anddental condition, 35.77% for children’s behavior in maintaining dental health, 15.90% for mothers’ behavior inmaintaining child’s dental health, and 7.95% for school environment. In conclusion, the order of children caries riskfactors through measurement using child dental caries predictor are oral and dental condition, children’s behavior inmaintaining dental health, mothers’ behavior maintaining child’s dental health,, and school environment.

In order to predict the factors which affect the occurrence of dental caries in children after the age 18-months, we analyzed the relationship between the increment of the decayed, missing, and filled teeth (dmft) in children from 18-months to three-years of age and caries risk factors. Subjects were 392 infants who received both an 18-month-old check-up and a three-year-old check-up in Chiba city. Stepwise multiple logistic regression analyses were used to analyze the results with the increment of the dmft by various combinations of independent variables (sex, order of birth, sweets intake, beverage intake, tooth brushing and feeding). The most predictive factors for the increment of the dmft in upper anterior and molar were “breast feeding” and “bottle feeding” respectively. From these results, we concluded that bottle feeding and breast feeding were the risk factors for the increment of the dmft from the age of 18-months to three years.

Background. Stroke is a cerebrovascular disease (cerebral blood vessel) that is characterized by impaired brain function due to damage or death of brain tissue due to reduced or blocked blood flow and oxygen to the brain. Stroke is influenced by several factors, namely risk factors that cannot be controlled, and risk factors that can be controlled. Risk factors that cannot be controlled include age, gender, smoking habits, and risk factors that can be controlled consisting of a history of hypertension, a history of diabetes mellitus, and hypercholesterolemia. Todetermine the description of the level of consumption of vitamins B6, B12, and folic acid in Stroke Patients Hospitalized in the BRSUD of Tabanan Regency. Research Methods. The type of research conducted is Descriptive Observational. Research Result. Based on age, as many as 5 people (71%). ≥ 55 years old. The sex of the most subjects having strokes was women with 4 people (57%). Distribution of the type of work of the subject is entrepreneur as many as 4 people (57%), civil servants 1 person (14%) and not working as many as 2 people (29%). Nutritional status of 1 person (14%) malnutrition, 1 person (14%) overweight, and 5 people (72%) good nutrition. Subjects with a history of hypertension were 6 people (86%), and those with a history of hypercholesterolemia as many as 2 people (29%). Subjects who had smoking habits were 1 person (14%). The level of consumption of Vitamin B6, B12, and folic acid in stroke patients, it is known that all subjects have a low consumption level (<80%) with details of vitamin B6 (4.50%), B12 (0.29%), Folic Acid (20, 0%). Conclusion. From this study all patients who suffered strokes consumed less vitamin B6, B12, and folic acid.

Abstract: Basic health research of Indonesia in 2018 showed that early childhood caries affected 93% of children. Early dental caries risk assessment using a dental caries risk simulator could be used to determine the appropriate program to prevent dental caries. This study was aimed to analyze the relationship between risk factors and dental caries status in early childhood. This was an analytical study with a cross sectional design using total sampling method. There were 51 preschool children at Taman Kanak Kanak (kindergaten school) Pelita Takwa, Pondok Betung, South Tangerang as samples. Dental caries was assessed by using the def-t index and dental caries risks were assessed by using the Irene's donut program. Interactive interviews with parents were conducted to determine the risk factors for dental caries among the students. The results showed that the prevalence of dental caries was 84.3% and the mean def-t was 5.35. The chi-square test was carried out to determine the relationship between dental caries status and risk factors. The result was not significant for three questions related to the factors, as follows: the child's tooth surface had white spots, the acidity level of the child's teeth was below pH 6.5, and the mother's age was 36 years old. Albeit, twelve other risk factors were shown to be associated with dental caries status. In conclusion, the prevalence of dental caries in preschool children was still high. Risk factors related to the dental caries status among pre-school children can be used as educational materials targeting pre-school children and their parents.Keywords: caries risk; dental caries; preschool children Abstrak: Riset Kesehatan Dasar Indonesia tahun 2018 menunjukkan bahwa 93% anak usia dini mengalami karies gigi. Penilaian risiko karies gigi sejak dini menggunakan simulator risiko karies gigi dapat menjadi salah satu cara untuk menentukan program yang tepat dalam mencegah terjadinya karies gigi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis hubungan faktor risiko dengan status karies gigi pada anak usia dini. Jenis penelitian ialah analitik dengan desain potong lintang menggunakan metode total sampling. Sampel yang diperoleh sebanyak 51 anak usia dini di sekolah Taman Kanak-Kanak Pelita Takwa, Pondok Betung, Tangerang Selatan.

Introduction. Removing the caries risk factors from a particular community (population) is needed for choosing necessary preventive measures, specially designed to decrease the level of the disease in that community. Material and method. This study was conducted on a group of 46 students from two Bucharest schools. Caries diagnosis was made using ICDAS system, DMF-T score being calculated as well. Risk factors analyzed in this paper were cariogenic diet, lack of fluoridation programs and social gradient, data being collected using a specially designed questionnaire made with a contribution of a sociologist. Results. DMF-T score for the entire group was 1.5 ± 1.97. The absence of fluoridation programs was the most prevalent risk factor analyzed in this paper, even it was insufficiently evaluated. Conclusions. This research evaluated three caries risk factors using a specially designed questionnaire which provided a score and a range values for each of them, data which will be used for further investigations.

Introduction. A poor oral hygiene, a wick salivary buffering capacity or a high number of colonies of specific bacteria are real risk factors for dental caries. Material and method. This study was conducted on a sample of 46 students aged 10 to 12 years attending two schools in Bucharest. Oral hygiene assessment was made both by using questionnaires and by calculating the OHI-S score. The salivary risk factors were identified and analyzed using GC Saliva Check Buffer and GC Saliva Check Mutans tests. Results. OHI-S score for the entire group led to a moderate degree of oral hygiene. Almost 40% of pupils had a number of mutans streptococci colonies over the limit. Conclusions. The poor oral hygiene and the high number of mutans streptococci colonies in saliva found in this study lead to a high dental caries risk.
