ABSTRACT
Objective. To determine the experience, prevalence and severity
of dental caries as well as to establish the treatment
needs and restorative care in adolescents and young adults.
Material and methods. This cross-sectional study included
638 subjects 16-25 years old candidates to enter to state
public university of San Luis Potosí, México. For caries detection
was used the DMFT index (sum of decayed teeth +
missing teeth + filled teeth in the permanent dentition).
With DMFT index data were calculated the experience, the
prevalence and the severity of caries. Also are reported
the significant caries index (SiC), the treatment needs index
(TNI) and the care index (CI). Statistical analysis was performed
using nonparametric tests.
Results. The mean
DMFT index was 4.24 ± 3.85, prevalence 76.5% and severity
of 52.3% for DMFT › 3 and 26.2% for DMFT › 6. The SiC
index was 8.7. The TNI was 43.0% and 52.8% CI. No variation
was observed (p › 0.05) on the experience, prevalence
and severity of caries by age. The component “filled teeth”
showed differences by age (p ‹ 0.05). Women had higher caries
experience and severity than men (p‹ 0.05), equally “decay
teeth” and “filled teeth” (p ‹ 0.05).
Conclusions. We
observed high levels of experience, prevalence and severity of
dental caries in this sample of adolescents and young
adults. We found almost 40% of untreated caries lesions. We
found some differences by sex.
