what is diet and what is nutrition?
Diet is the selection of food drinks etc.
Nutrition is the intake of nutrients
Nutrition is the intake of nutrients

How often can we eat sugary stuff?
caries risk to be significant if consumed more than 4 times daily.
WHO recommend free sugars no more than four times a day
WHO recommend free sugars no more than four times a day
3 of 44
How much sugary stuff can we eat?
“There is evidence of moderate quality to show that dental caries is lower when free-sugars intake is < 10%” total energy intake
“There may be benefit in limiting sugars to < 5% E to minimize the risk of dental caries throughout the life course”
“There may be benefit in limiting sugars to < 5% E to minimize the risk of dental caries throughout the life course”

3 key requirements for affecting change in health related behaviour:
1. knowledge what to do
2. skills (how to do it)
3. attitude (the motivation to do it)

3. attitude (the motivation to do it)

how and when to guide the change
when: If the child or parent/carer is lacking motivation to change;
how:Provide encouragement using verbal persuasion
Identify barriers to change and try to resolve them
Provide instruction which actively involves the parent/ carer and child (food and

what should we be telling people
- Restrict food and drink containing sugar to no more than four occasions in any one day
-Snack on sugar free snacks - be wary of other health concerns when recommending this – cheese is high in fat
-Do not eat or drink after brushing at night
Be aware of

what is high/medium/low sugar content
high=more than 15g per 100g of food
medium=5g and 15g per 100g of food
low=5g or less per 100g of food
medium=5g and 15g per 100g of food
low=5g or less per 100g of food

back to nutrition: what are some general health considerations
Base meals on starchy foods
Eat lots of fruit and vegetables
Eat more fish
Cut down on saturated fat and sugar
Eat less salt
Drink plenty of water
Support and promote breast feeding
Infants should be exclusively breast fed for the first 6 mo

what does WHO recommend in both adits and children ?
reducing the intake of free sugars to less than 10% of total energy intake
Suggests a further reduction of the intake of free sugars to below 5% of total energy intake

why is fluoride good?
Inhibits demineralization, slowing decay
Makes enamel more resistant to erosion
In high concentrations, can inhibit bacterial metabolism/ enzyme activity
Fluoride is currently recognized as the major factor that is responsible for the reduction in c

11 of 44
when does demineralisation occur?
when there is an imbalance between mineral loss and gain
12 of 44
how does fluoride work?
controls caries lesion development primarily topically by effect on de- and remineralization processes
takes place at the interface between tooth surface and oral fluid
takes place at the interface between tooth surface and oral fluid

why does the solubility of apatite increases 10 times with a decrease of 1pH unit
because H+ combines with PO43- and OH- to form H2PO43- and H2O
14 of 44
what is the consequences of
' H+ combines with PO43- and OH- to form H2PO43- and H2O'
' H+ combines with PO43- and OH- to form H2PO43- and H2O'
the concentrations of free PO43- & OH- are reduced thus turning the solution under saturated with respect to enamel, promoting enamel dissolution
15 of 44
how can avoid the following ' H+ combines with PO43- and OH- to form H2PO43- and H2O'
Avoidable by increasing the concentrations of Ca2+ and/or PO43- in the fluid

the rate of demineralization which this takes place is directly proportional...
to the mineral saturation of the surrounding saliva
17 of 44
what happens to the pH whenWhen bacteria metabolize sugars & saliva/biofilm
decreases
<4.5<pH<5.5
<4.5<pH<5.5
18 of 44
what would happen to Hap if saliva & biofilm become under saturated with respect to it
HAp dissolves from subsurface
19 of 44
what would happen to Hap if saliva & biofilm are still supersaturated with respect to PHAp
FHAp forms in surface layers
This makes the tooth more resistant to subsequent demineralization
This makes the tooth more resistant to subsequent demineralization

what is the primary mineral in saliva
hydroxy- apatite
21 of 44
what is the pH for dissolution of HA and FA
HA: 5.5
FA: 4.5
FA: 4.5

What is the direct mode of action of fluoride when inhibiting bacteria
Interacts with enzyme enolase to reduce acid production
23 of 44
What is the indirect mode of action of fluoride when inhibiting bacteria
Limits phosphoenolpyruvate, inhibiting decreasing the amount of sugar entering the cell.\enters the cell as hydrofluoric acid, reducing cellular PH
Overall effect is reducing acidic environment
Mutans streptococcus is sensitive to fluoride - inhibitory ef

what is a common fluoride varnish
Duraphat
26 of 44
how much fluoride in fluoride varnish
22,600 PPM fluoride (2.26%)
27 of 44
how much would 1ml of varnish contain if there's 22,600 PPM fluoride 2.26%
1 ml of varnish (equivalent to 1 gram equivalent to 1000mg) will contain 22600 divided by 1000= 22.6mg Fl

when is fluoride varnish contra indicated
asthma, allergies to colophony/Elastoplast, patients with ulcerative gingivitis/stomatitis
29 of 44
what does SDCEP guidelines say about fluoride varnish application
a) for all patients
a) for all patients
a: Apply 5% sodium fluoride varnish twice a year for all children over 2 years of age
It is acceptable for a child to have it four times a year if they are getting the applications from Childsmile
Do not apply to teeth if patient has had it applied in

30 of 44
what does SDCEP guidelines say about fluoride varnish application b) for high risk patients
Apply 5% sodium fluoride varnish an additional 1-2 times per year
Importantly, the maximum is still only four times a year. Always confirm whether the patient has received fluoride varnish from another source (Childsmile etc.)

what happens if you ingest too much fluoride
Nausea and vomiting associated with the ingestion of topical fluorides

what do you do in acute overdose?
Minimize absorption by giving a calcium containing solution (e.g. milk) - prevents absorption
Find out how old the child is (or what they weigh)
Find out how much has been eaten
Transfer to A&E for a full assessment, monitoring and managing plasma c
