Care Practices

Background: Oral health conditions, such as dental caries, pose a substantial burden worldwide. Although there are many risk factors for poor oral health, diet is often implicated as a cause of these issues. The purpose of this scoping review was to identify and map studies that have captured information on the “real-world” nutrition care practices of oral health professionals (OHPs) and dietitians to optimize oral health, and specifically the dentition and periodontium. Methods: A search of peer-reviewed articles was conducted using MEDLINE, CINAHL, and Embase. Articles that addressed the review objective and met the following criteria were included: English language, published since 2000, and study conducted in a high-income country. Results: Overall, 70 articles were included. Most articles reported on cross-sectional survey studies and provided self-reported data on OHP practices; few articles reported on dietitians. Most articles reported only general/unspecific information on assessment and intervention practices, such as dietary analysis, nutrition counselling, and diet advice, and lacked specific information about the care provided, such as the dietary assessment tools used, type of information provided, and time spent on these activities. Barriers to the provision of nutrition care by OHPs were common and included time and lack of remuneration. Few studies reported on collaboration between dietitians and OHPs. Conclusions: Several studies have captured self-reported information on nutrition care practices of OHPs related to oral health; however, there is limited information available on the details of the care provided. Few studies have examined the practices of dietitians.

Spain ranks fifth among European countries for childhood obesity. Sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs) and soft drinks (SDs) are consumed by 81% of the Spanish children weekly. Advertising is one of the factors that contributes to an obesogenic environment. This study correlated longitudinally the nutritional values of SSBs and SDs and advertising discursive strategies between 2013 and 2018 for all media. A mixed-methods approach was applied that included a quantitative analysis of advertising spend data, a content analysis and a study of the discursive strategies used in advertisements. In addition, the Nutri-score system was used in order to determine the nutritional quality of the beverages. The results were analyzed applying the Spanish advertising regulatory framework for obesity prevention. The main findings indicate an association between low nutritional value beverage advertisements and a discourse based on hedonistic elements. In order to prevent childhood obesity in Spain, a stricter regulation of advertising is necessary, especially in aspects such as the language used to present products and celebrity endorsements.

Abstract Aim: To find out the association between oral health related behavior and dental caries   Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted on the 6-7-year-old students of Wilsonian school, DFT was clinically assessed at the first visit and a validated questionnaire was distributed among the parents of the students. The questionnaire consists of the three main questions, one regarding the tooth brushing Frequency that was  assessed by the following question: “How many times a day does your child brush his/her teeth?” with the answers of “twice or more/day,” “once/day,” “less than once/day,” and “do not know.” These answers were recorded as “twice or more/day; coded 1” and “less than twice/day (including ‘do not know’); coded 2”. Another question regarding the drinking sugar-sweetened beverages frequency was assessed by the following question: “How often does your child drink sugar-sweetened beverages?” with the answers of “several times/month or never; coded 1,” “once/week; coded 2,” “2- 3 times/week; coded 3,” “4-6 times/week; coded 4,” “once/day; coded 5” and “twice or more/day; coded 6.” .The Third question was regarding “Snack-eating habits” that was assessed by the following question: “When does your child eat snacks?” with the answer of “does not eat snacks; coded 1,” “eats snacks at a set time; coded 2” and “eats snacks freely whenever he/she wants; coded 3.” Results: Poor oral behavior was  associated with higher DFT after adjusting for all covariates Toothbrushing frequency, frequency of drinking sugar-sweetened beverages and snack-eating habits (OR=1.49,CI-1.17-1.89) (OR=2.01,95% CI=1.27,3.18) and (OR=1.83,95%CI=1.14,2.92) associated with DFT, Conclusions: improving children’s oral health behavior might decrease their dental caries by Strengthening their self-control.
