    Notes: Abstract— This paper is a comparison of cross-sectional data on dental caries in the primary dentition undertaken between 1976 and 1981 in the Transvaal Province, South Africa, on 690 rural Black, 1463 urban Black, 870 Indian and 1622 White children aged 2–5 yr. There was a decrease in percentage dental caries prevalence in the urban White children and an increase in the other three groups, the fastest rate being seen among urban Indian children. Similar trends were noted for mean dmft. Dental caries in incisor and canine teeth remained fairly static but caries in molar teeth increased in the groups of Black and Indian children and decreased in the White children. Ratios d/dmft, m/dmft and f/dmft indicated that minimal treatment was received by all the children.

    Dental caries and sucrose intake in five South African preschool groups (1984)

    Notes: Abstract Dental caries, debris (DI-S) and sugar intake were determined for 766 rural Black, urban Black, coloured, Indian and While children, using standardized techniques. In general sucrose intake, both quantity and frequency was low in rural Black children yet these children had relatively few caries-free individuals and higher than expected mean dmft scores. Comparison with earlier studies in the same localities has shown a worsening of dental caries in all groups except the White, in which the situation has improved. Sucrose consumption declined in rural Black, and White groups, remained steady in urban Black children and increased in coloured and Indian groups.

    Comparison of dental fluorosis and caries in primary teeth of preschool-children living in arid high and low fluoride villages (1982)

    Notes: Abstract The aim of this study was to determine the degree of fluorosis in the primary dentition and the accompanying caries patterns in groups of preschool-children in high and low fluoride areas. Among 331 coloured children, aged 1 -5 years, living in an area with water F concentrations ranging from 2.2 to 4.1 parts/106, 82% were caries free and the dmft values ranged from 0 to 15 with a mean dmft of 0.8 ± 2.1. Varying degrees of fluorosis in the primary teeth were present in 50.6% of the children. In 177 coloured children of similar ages from an adjacent area with 0.2 parts/106 F in the drinking water the dmft values ranged from 0 to 20 with a mean dmft of 5.4 ± 5.8. Only 28% of the children were caries free. None of the children in this area had fluorosis. The caries prevalence was significantly higher in the low fluoride area than in the high fluoride area. The degree of fluorosis found in the primary dentition in the children from the high fluoride area was higher than had been anticipated and was accompanied by a very low caries prevalence.
