Introduction. Caries of deciduous teeth in the population of Polish children is a significant health, social and organizational problem. Aim. The aim of the study was to evaluate the dentition of 3- and 4-year-old children in the Mazowieckie Province. Material and methods. The study comprised 393 kindergarten children aged 3 and 4 years in the Mazowieckie Province, 202 girls and 191 boys, including 159 children aged 3 years and 243 children aged 4 years. In all subjects the state of dentition was assessed. The prevalence of caries was calculated as the percentage of people affected by this disease, and the intensity of dental caries was determined using the dmft index. The results were compared with those that Polish researchers obtained in the 3 – and 4-year-olds after 2000. Results. In the studied group of 3- and 4-year-olds the prevalence of caries was 62.85%, among girls – 61.88% and among boys – 63.87%. For all subjects the average scores for dmft index were 3.22 and its components dt – 2.72 (decayed teeth), mt – 0.1 (missing teeth), ft – 0.4 (filled teeth). Conclusions. The prevalence and intensity of dental caries in 3- and 4-year-old children attending kindergartens in the Ma-zowieckie Province is high and close to the national average. It is advisable to increase the preventive and curative measures in this age group of children on dental caries.

Background. Indonesia has reported high prevalence and severity of early childhood caries (ECC). This is at 90% at age 3–5 years with higher mean of decay extraction or filling of teeth (def-t). Preschool children are one of the most vulnerable groups to dental and oral disease because they generally still not have proper behavior with regard to maintaining their oral health. Parental care is an important factor as it serves as the basis of the formation of behaviors that support or do not support childhood oral hygiene. One well-validated theory commonly used to test human attitudes and behaviors is the Theory of Planned Behavior. Objectives. Based on the Theory of Planned Behavior, to describe the behavior of mothers on teaching toothbrushing to preschool children. Material and methods. We undertook a cross-sectional analytic study with sample size 218 of mothers of kindergarten children in Surabaya. We obtained our data by giving a questionnaire to mothers that consists of 35 semi open ended and closed ended questions. Results. The variables of Theory of Planned Behavior which showed significant effect on intention to act were attitude and PBC with p-value < 0.005. Subsequently, attitude, subjective norms, and PBC were tested together to measure the influence to intention – which resulted in a R2 of 0.37. Conclusions. Attitudes and PBC are the most dominant factors in improving the intentions and behavior of mothers towards teaching effective toothbrushing practices to their children.

Wstęp: Próchnica zębów jest chorobą społeczną o szerokim zasięgu. Chorują na nią zarówno dzieci, jak i osoby dorosłe. Wysoka zapadalność na próchnicę jest efektem niewłaściwej higieny i braku podejmowania leczenia stomatologicznego u małych dzieci. W związku z tym bardzo ważna okazuje się wiedza studentów pielęgniarstwa na temat zapobiegania próchnicy zębów, zwłaszcza u dzieci. Cel pracy: Zbadanie wiedzy studentów PMWSZ w Opolu, potencjalnych rodziców, dotyczącej próchnicy zębów u dzieci i metod jej zapobiegania. Materiał i metody: Badanie przeprowadzono metodą sondażu diagnostycznego wśród 100 studentów pielęgniarstwa PMWSZ w Opolu. Wyniki: Większość grupy badawczej miała 20-25 lat (89 %). Zdecydowana większość ankietowanych posiada odpowiednią wiedzę na temat zapobiegania próchnicy, profilaktycznych wizyt u stomatologa i właściwej pielęgnacji jamy ustnej. Wnioski: Wiedza studentów pielęgniarstwa dotycząca zapobiegania próchnicy zębów u dzieci jest zadowalająca. Wszyscy badani studenci mają świadomość, że próchnicy można zapobiec. Profilaktyka polega głównie na edukacji zdrowotnej i należy ją rozpocząć już u kobiet w ciąży. Ponieważ prawie połowa badanych nie wie, że dziecko po ukończeniu 5 roku może używać także innych produktów do higieny jamy ustnej poza szczoteczką i pastą do zębów. Należy poszerzyć wiedzę w tym zakresie. Uzupełnienia wymaga także wiedza osób ankietowanych dotycząca lakowania i lakierowania zębów w ramach profilaktyki fluorkowej.

Introduction. Dental caries is still a social problem in many countries, including Poland. Through epidemiological studies conducted in index groups among children and adults, it is possible to monitor its progress and take appropriate action. The Podlaskie region is an area where the severity of dental caries in children has been the highest in the country for a few years, both in urban and rural settings. Objective. Evaluation and comparison of indicators of the progress of caries – Decayed Missing Filled Teeth (DMFT) – in 12-year-olds from the urban and rural areas of north-eastern Poland, measured between 2003–2010. Materials and method. In 2003 and 2010, respectively, 445 children were examined: in 2003 – 188: 101 boys, 87 girls; 98 from urban areas, 90 from rural areas, and in 2010 – 257 adolescents: 134 boys, 123 girls; 157 from urban areas and 70 from rural areas. The study protocol was strictly subordinated to the WHO study monitor guidelines. DMFT indices were evaluated in particular years. The distribution of their individual components was then compared and analyzed. The outcomes resulting from the place of residence and gender of the adolescents were taken into account. In the statistical analysis, Shapiro-Wilk test and Mann-Whitney U test were used. Results. In 2003, the mean value of DMFT was 4.76, and in 2010 it decreased to 3.36 (p<0.0001). In 2003, DMFT was 4.42 in the rural areas, and after 7 years it has risen to 4.77. There was a significant decrease in the value of the index (from 5.08 to 2.82, p<0.0001) in the urban areas. No significant differences based on gender were observed between these years. Conclusions. The values of caries intensity among 12-year-olds from the Podlaskie region, both in rural and urban areas, are still high. Among children from the rural areas, dental caries progression is more visible and has not improved during the years 2003–2010. These findings should lead to the development of programmes for the inhabitants of rural areas.
