Abstract

Karijes je višečimbenična infekcijska bolest koja zahvaća sve uzraste i prisutna je u
razvijenim i nerazvijenim dijelovima svijeta. Unatoč unapređenju oralne higijene i
oralnog zdravlja, karijes ostaje veliki problem u suvremenim zemljama diljem
svijeta. Epidemiološke studije pokazuju da ukupan broj karijesnih lezija pada ali je
pad karijesa u fisurama i jamicama najmanji. Zbog toga je potpuno opravdana težnja
da se pojavnost okluzalnog karijesa reducira ciljanim mjerama.
Očuvanju i kontroli oralnog zdravlja uvelike pridonosi upotreba fluorida koja
smanjuje učestalost pojave karijesa i sudjeluje u remineralizaciji početne karijesne
lezije.
Topikalna primjena fluorida jedan je od najučinkovitijih načina prevencije karijesa u
kombinaciji s dobrom oralnom higijenom. Fluoridi mogu efikasno smanjiti aktivnost
karijesa, pa zato ako je veći rizik za nastanak karijesa, potreban je intenzivniji
tretman fluoridima.
Postupkom pečaćenja fisura te izradom preventivnih ispuna također je značajno
smanjena pojavnost karijesa u fisurama.
U prevenciji karijesa treba djelovati edukacijom pacijenata i roditelja, poboljšanjem
oralne higijene i načina prehrane te razvijanjem svijesti o važnosti očuvanja zdravlja
zubi.

Abstract (english)

Caries is an infectious disease with more factors which affects people of all ages and
which is present in developed and undeveloped parts of the world. Inspite of the
improvement of oral higiene and oral health, caries remains a huge problem in
modern countries all over the world. Epidemiological studies show that the total
number of caries lesions is decreasing but the decrease of caries in fissures and pits is
the least. Because of that the aim is totally reasonable that the appearance of
occlusial caries is reduced by aimed measures.
The usage of fluoride, which reduces caries incidence and participates in
remineralization of incipent caries lesions, helps a lot in preserving and controlling
oral health. The topical application of fluoride combined with good oral hygiene is
the most effective way of prevention of caries. Fluoride can effectively decrease the
activity of caries, so if the risk of caries is occurence is higher, a more intensive
treatment is needed. The appearance of caries in fissures is also remarkably reduced
by the fissure sealants hethod and the making of preventive fillings. To prevent
caries it should be acted by education of patients, parents, improvement of oral
hygiene and diet and also the development of consciousness of the importance
maintaining the teeth’s health.
