Fermentable carbohydrate dietary consumption measured by a cariogenicity scoring system and caries experience in youth and adults
Aim: To evaluate if dietary fermentable carbohydrate consumption associates with caries experience of youths and adults when assessed by a scoring system of putative cariogenicity of the foods. Methods: Two hundred and seventy five subjects (12 to 67 years-old) were examined to assess caries experie...
