Are intrauterine growth restriction and preterm birth associated with dental caries?

–  Objectives:  To assess the association between two intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) surrogates – IUGR [small for gestational age birth (SGA) and fetal growth restriction (FGR)] and preterm birth with dental caries. Methods:  Data from the Third National Health and Nutritional Examination Su...

Description
Summary:–  Objectives:  To assess the association between two intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) surrogates – IUGR [small for gestational age birth (SGA) and fetal growth restriction (FGR)] and preterm birth with dental caries. Methods:  Data from the Third National Health and Nutritional Examination Survey (1988–1994) were used, including 2‐ to 5.9‐year‐old singletons (n = 3189). Dental caries was defined as presence of any teeth with dental caries (treated or untreated) and also as presence of at least two teeth with dental caries. Exposure variables were preterm birth (
