Objectives
To conduct an assessment of time-dependent covariates related to dental caries of the permanent dentition among a low socioeconomic status, understudied cohort of children, incorporating time-dependent covariates through the application of extended Cox proportional hazards modeling.
Methods
This study modeled the time to first cavitated dental caries in permanent teeth among school-aged children and assessed factors associated with this event. A cohort of 98 low socioeconom

The Local Dental Network (LDN) Chairs, who provide clinical leadership throughout England, have stated that they fully support the recently published position statements by the UK Chief Medical Officers1 around the potential for water fluoridation to address entrenched oral health inequality.
Within the LDNs, clinicians working with patients see at first hand the levels of disease, misery, trauma and obvious health inequality.

Abstract
Epidemiological studies use biomarkers of fluoride exposure in pregnant women as surrogate measures of fetal fluoride exposure; however, there is little understanding of how pregnancy affects fluoride metabolism and its biomarkers. This narrative review summarizes the changes of pregnancy that have the potential to impact fluoride’s absorpt

... The efficacy of postnatal interventions in expectant mothers for preventing dental caries and MS transmission in their children has been thoroughly studied18; however, data regarding the efficacy of prenatal interventions remain unclear. Therefore, the purpose of this paper was to provide a systematic review of the current literature assessing the efficacy of maternal administration of fluoride, chlorhexidine mouthrinses, and xylitol in altering the mutans streptococci levels in children.
