Making Cavities History: A Global Policy Consensus for Achieving a Dental Cavity-Free Future
JDR Clinical and Translational Research
|May 24, 2021
Summary
Global consensus recommends sharing caries and cavities guidelines. Evidence shows caries is the most prevalent noncommunicable disease (NCD), necessitating policy integration for a cavity-free future and improved NCD management.
Area of Science:
- Oral health
- Public health
- Noncommunicable diseases
Background:
- Dental caries is the most prevalent noncommunicable disease (NCD) globally.
- Caries significantly impacts global health and requires widespread attention.
Purpose of the Study:
- To disseminate global consensus recommendations for managing caries and cavities.
- To advocate for policy integration to achieve a dental cavity-free future.
Main Methods:
- Global consensus building on caries and cavities.
- Evidence review highlighting caries as a leading NCD.
Main Results:
- Caries is identified as the most prevalent NCD worldwide.
- Consensus recommendations exist for addressing caries and cavities.
Conclusions:
- Sharing recommendations across diverse communities is crucial for policy adoption.
- Integrating these recommendations into global and local strategies will advance efforts to 'Make Cavities History' and improve NCD outcomes.

The formation of teeth, also known as odontogenesis, is a complex process that begins in utero, around the sixth week of embryonic development. There are three stages to this process: the bud stage, the cap stage, and the bell stage.
In the bud stage, the tooth germ (an aggregation of cells) starts to form in the developing jawbone. During the cap stage, the tooth germ differentiates into enamel organ, dental papilla, and dental sac, which will later develop into the tooth's enamel, dentin...

The human tooth enables us to eat a variety of foods, speak clearly, and even aid in shaping our faces. Teeth are composed of various elements that work together. Here's a detailed look at the anatomy of a human tooth.
The Crown, Neck, and Root
The visible part of the tooth is referred to as the crown. It's covered by enamel, the hardest substance in the human body. The crown is uniquely shaped for each type of tooth, allowing for different functions such as cutting, tearing, or...

The oral cavity, or the mouth, is a complex structure in humans that plays a vital role in our day-to-day lives. Its role is not only in chewing and swallowing food; it also plays a role in speech and facial expressions.
Teeth: The teeth are the hardest structures in our bodies. Humans have two sets of teeth throughout their lifetime: deciduous (baby) teeth and permanent teeth. Each tooth consists of several parts: the crown (visible part), the root (embedded in the jaw), enamel (hard outer...

At the different levels of the healthcare system, we see varying methods of healthcare used. These methods include managed care systems, case management, and primary healthcare.
Managed Care System:
The managed care system is designed to control the cost while maintaining the quality of care. The patient's care from admission to discharge is planned by the primary care provider or the case manager, also known as the gatekeeper. In a managed care system, the number of care providers is...

A thorough mouth assessment, including inspection and palpation of the lips, gums, tongue, tonsils, uvula, and pharynx, is crucial in detecting potential health issues. Diseases ranging from oral cancer to systemic conditions like diabetes could be identified early through careful oral examination. This article provides a detailed guide on conducting a comprehensive mouth assessment.
Mouth Inspection
The inspection begins with visually examining the mouth for symmetry, color, and size.
