Prevalence of Caries on Individual Tooth Surfaces and its Distribution by Age and Gender in University Clinic Patients
TLDR
Gender and age do not affect the prevalence of caries on teeth sites, and more caries are experienced in younger age groups, and their incidence decreases as age increases, except for individuals older than 65 years of age.Abstract:
Objectives:
The objectives of the present study were to assess the prevalence rate of caries on individual permanent tooth surfaces, and to compare individual tooth surface caries rates among gender and age groups.read more

Assessing and modeling the factor that affected dental caries among preschool children in bachok, kelantan, malaysia
TL;DR: The results showed that the prevalence of dental caries amongst 5-6 year-old preschool children from Bachok District, Kelantan, is about 63.1% (high caries category), which needs special systematic dental health education programmes.

Effects of brushing duration on the efficacy of dental plaque removal: An in vitro study.
TL;DR: In this article , the authors evaluated the effects of varying brushing times on the dental plaque-removal efficacy of a power toothbrush to determine the optimal length of time required to brush the teeth.

Longitudinal studies of the natural history of caries. II. A life-table study of caries incidence in the permanent teeth.
TL;DR: Although differences in tooth eruption times were sufficient to explain most of the observed male-female differences in age-specific caries prevalence, females continued to show a distinctly higher risk of caries attack in first and second molars when the time of eruption was controlled.

Incidence and progression of approximal caries from 11 to 22 years of age in Sweden: A prospective radiographic study.
TL;DR: Using annual bite–wing radiographs, the incidence and progression of approximal caries were assessed longitudinally in teenagers and adolescents whose treatment had been based on remineralizing rather than restorative strategies.

Diagnostic tools and measurements--impact on appropriate care.
TL;DR: Research in this area should focus for the next five years on diagnostic technologies which inform valid prospective caries risk assessments for different age groups, can help to determine present caries activity and monitor lesion behaviour over time and help identify methods which can implement existing and new research knowledge about diagnostic tools into clinical and research practice.

Dental caries in older adults.
TL;DR: New materials and techniques are emerging to help with geriatric preventive and restorative needs, but ongoing vigilance for caries will be required in this population, which is experiencing increased longevity and tooth retention.
