The Prevalence of Dental Caries in Europe 1990-1995
Open accessAbstract
Caries prevalence data from recent studies in all European countries showed a general trend towards a further decline for children and adolescents. However, in several countries with already low caries prevalence in primary teeth, there was no further decrease. Regarding the permanent dentition, further reductions were observed in the 12-year age group, these being even more evident at the ages of 15-19 years. In some Central and Eastern European countries, caries prevalence in children and adolescents was still high. Few data were available on young adults, but the benefits of prevention are becoming manifest. The available data on the use of toothbrushes, fluorides and other pertinent items provided few clues as to the causes of the decline in caries prevalence.

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.
