Λευκές κηλίδες της αδαμαντίνης (enamel opacities) εφηβικού πληθυσμού Ιορδανίας

THE EXISTENCE OF ENAMEL OPACITIES IS A VERY COMMON PHENOMENON IN THE PERMANENT DENTITION. THE AIM OF THIS INVESTIGATION WAS TO STUDY AND DETERMINE THE PREVALENCE AND SEVERITY CONCERNING THE NON-FLUORIDE ENAMEL OPACITIES IN THE YOUNG POPULATION (JORDANIANS AND PALESTINIANS) OF THE JORDANIAN JARASH. THE EPIDEMIOLOGICAL PARAMETERS OF THIS STUDY CONCERNED THE INCIDENCE OF ENAMEL OPACITIES IN TWO DIFFERENT SOCIOECONOMIC POPULATIONS AND ALSO THEIR PREVALENCE AS REGARD THE TOOTH TYPE, THE LOCATION AND THE SEX DISTRIBUTION OF THESE DEFECTS. THE RESULTS OFTHIS STUDY SHOWED THAT: A) THE OCCURENCE OF ENAMEL OPACITIES WAS GREATER IN THE PALESTINIANS (41.55%) IN COMPARISON TO THE JORDANIANS (24. 16%). B) THERE WAS NO SEX DIFFERENCES AS REGARDS THE OCCURANCE OF ENAMEL OPACITIES IN BOTH POPULATIONS. C) THE PREVALENCE OF ENAMEL OPACITIES WAS SIGNIFICANTLY HIGHER IN THE BUCCAL SURFACE THEN IN THE LINGUAL SURFACE OF THE TEETH, IN BOTH POPULATIONS. REGARDING THE AREA OF THE TOOTH SURFACE, THE AREA OF THE BUCCAL SURFACE OF THE CROWN WAS MOSTLY AFFECTED FOLLOWED BY THE MIDDLE THIRD AREA AND THE INCISAL PART OF THE BUCCAL SURFACE. D) THE MAXILLARY TEETH WERE MORE AFFECTED IN COMPARISON TO THE MANDIBULAR IN BOTH POPULATIONS . THE PATTERN OF FREQUENCY OF OCCURANCE WAS: MAXILLARY POSTERIORS AND ANTERIORS, FOLLOWED BY MANDIBULAR POSTERIORS AND ANTERIORS. E) NATIONALITY AND SEX SEEM NOT TO HAVE ANY EFFECT ON THE INCIDENCE OF THE ENAMEL OPACITIES WITH REFERENCE TO THE JAWS, THE GROUP OF TEETH (ANTERIORS, POSTERIORS) THE SURFACE OF ENAMEL AFFECTED (BUCCAL, LINGUAL) AND THE LOCATION OF THE SURFACE (INCISAL, MIDDLE, CERVICAL) OF THE TEETH.
