Abstract

Objective To evaluate the preventive effect of Duraphat on dental caries among children with cerebral palsy(CP) aged 3-5 years in Dezhou,so as to provide basis for prevention of primary tooth caries in children with cerebral palsy. Methods A total of 107 children with cerebral palsy aged 3-5 years were selected from 9 rehabilitation institutions for children with cerebral palsy in dezhou city from Januany 2018 to January 2020 and were randomly divided into 2 groups.Children with cerebral palsy in the test group (54 cases with 1 080 teeth) were treated with fluoride varnish once every six months,while the control group (53 cases with 1 060 teeth) was blank group.At the same time,oral hygiene instruction was conducted for the guardian semi-annually for 4 times.Then the effect of intervention was compared between the two groups. Results After two years,there was no significant difference in caries rate between the two groups (χ2=2.256,P>0.05).However,there were statistically significant differences in the the incidence of dental caries(7.41% vs. 20.75%), dmft(2.41±2.02 vs.3.47±2.35) and the incidence of anterior caries(7.41% vs. 12.89%) (χ2=3.953,t=-2.512,χ2=10.615,P<0.05). Conclusion The use of Duraphat can reduce the caries incidence rate and dmft increments of primary teeth in early childhood with cerebral palsy and is worthy to be used widely in Dezhou district.
