ABSTRACT

Objective: Gingivitis and dental caries are common among Mexican population; the main factors related to these oral health diseases require identification to develop specific interventions. The present study determined the prevalence of gingivitis and caries in young Mexicans with healthy and unhealthy weight, and its relation with tooth brushing and sugar consumption. Material and methods: Men and women aged 18-25 years with healthy weight (HW, n = 23, kg/m2: 18.5-24.9) and unhealthy weight (UW, n = 23, kg/m2: ≥ 30) were selected by stratified sampling from a school campus. Participant’s height, weight, and body fat was measured; diet was evaluated by a 24-h food recall instrument, and oral health was assessed according to World Health Organization criteria. Results: No difference was observed by weight status in prevalence of gingivitis (HW = 74% vs UW = 70%) or caries (HW = 78% vs UW = 87%). Only a small proportion of participants reported tooth brushing one or more times a day (HW = 22% vs UW = 30%). The percentage of intake of sugary foods was high but did not differ by weight conditions (HW = 12% ± 10% vs UW = 11% ± 7%), and across all participants was positively associated with high mean caries index scores (r = 0.43, p ‹ 0.01). Conclusions: The prevalence of gingivitis and dental caries was similar to that reported in other studies. Actions to promote lower sugar intake among undergraduate students are of paramount relevance to reduce their risk for these oral diseases.
