    Individuals with root caries experience more untreated coronal decay and require more dental treatments. This association holds true across age groups, with older adults having more teeth affected by root caries.

    Area of Science:

    • Oral Health
    • Dental Caries Research
    • Epidemiology of Dental Diseases

    Background:

    • Root caries and coronal caries are distinct but related dental conditions.
    • Understanding the interplay between different types of caries is crucial for comprehensive oral health management.
    • Previous research indicates varying prevalence and risk factors for coronal and root caries.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the relationship between coronal caries and root caries in adults.
    • To identify differences in dental health parameters between individuals with and without root caries.
    • To assess the impact of age on the association between coronal and root caries.

    Main Methods:

    • Analysis of dental health data from 963 individuals aged 25-64 years.

  • Comparison of tooth status, untreated caries, and treatment needs between subjects with and without root caries.
  • Stratification of analysis by age groups, particularly focusing on individuals over 55 years.
  • Main Results:

    • Subjects with root caries had significantly fewer teeth overall.
    • Individuals with root caries presented with more untreated coronal caries.
    • Root caries was associated with a higher need for conservative treatments and extractions, especially in older adults (over 55).

    Conclusions:

    • Root caries is linked to poorer overall dental health, including more coronal decay and greater treatment requirements.
    • The presence of root caries indicates a more severe dental health status.
    • Age is a factor in root caries prevalence, with older individuals showing a higher burden of affected teeth.
