Intergenerational Oral Conditions’ Relationships: The Role of Sugar Intake
Having a mother with higher caries experience increases the risk of caries among children; however, limiting free sugar intake mitigates the risk.Knowledge Transfer Statement:This study demonstrates that having a mother with higher caries experience increases a child's risk of developing caries; limiting free sugar intake mitigates the risk. Policymakers and clinicians could promote lower caries prevalence and prevent caries severity of children by encouraging upstream policies of reducing sugar intake.
