Nutrition, dental caries and periodontal disease: a narrative review

Open access
Hujoel, Philippe P., Lingström, Peter·2017·Journal of Clinical Periodontology

Abstract

Aim: To provide a narrative review of the role of macro‐ and micronutrients in relation to dental caries, gingival bleeding and destructive periodontal disease. Materials & Methods: This review is based on systematic reviews (when available) and comparative human studies. Results: Dental caries cannot develop without the presence of dietary fermentable carbohydrates, in particular sugar. The susceptibility to develop caries in the presence of carbohydrates may be influenced by genetics and micronutrients such as vitamin D. Gingival bleeding and destructive periodontal disease are sensitive markers to both abnormalities in macronutrient content (excessive carbohydrates or poly‐unsaturated fat intake, deficient protein intake) and micronutrient intake (e.g. vitamin C and B12). Conclusion: Dental caries and periodontal diseases are a sensitive alarm bell for an unhealthy diet, which predicts the future onset of the diseases of civilizations.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
