Brief Summary

Premature, non-physiological tooth wear in childhood has numerous repercussions for oral health. This is a growing problem with multifactorial causes and associated with the current lifestyle. The aim of the present study was the development and determination of content validity of the Childhood Early Oral Aging Syndrome (CEOAS) index for the primary dentition as a diagnostic and epidemiological survey tool considering the current changes found in this population.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Development of CEOAS index

  The Childhood Early Oral Aging Syndrome index will be to investigate clinical signs and symptoms related to the early loss of dental structure associated with the most prevalent enamel defects, which significantly contribute to oral aging. The clinical management of tooth wear is also addressed in CEOAS scores 1, 2 and 3. Current indices used for non-carious conditions do not enable the concomitant investigation of enamel defects, which makes the proposed index innovative and of extreme important to epidemiological surveys. Understanding the prevalence of factors that either separately or synergically accelerate the process of early aging is useful to the establishment of novel treatment strategies. The CEOAS index involves scores of 0 to 3 for the assessment of tooth wear and dental management, whereas scores of I, II and III are used concomitantly in cases of the presence of enamel defects, as show in Table 1
