| Abstract | ||
| Dental caries is a sugar – dependent disease acid is produced as a bi product of the metabolism of dietary Carbohydrate by bacteria plaque, which results in a drop in PH at the tooth surface. In response, Calcium and Phosphate ions diffuse out of enamel, resulting in demineralization. This process is reversed when the PH rises again (1). The sample consisted of 100 students from both sexes at age 9, 10, 11 and 12 years from primary schools in Baghdad. This study reveals that dental caries increases with age as caries begins in the permanent dentition. And the DMF decrease after 13 years of sanctions in Iraq. It has been found that 13 years of sanction is just enough to reveal the result of the reduction in sugar consumption on prevalence of dental caries. Also, it has been found that after two years of 2003 is just enough to reveal of increases in sugar consumption on prevalence of dental caries. | ||
