Abstract
Objectives: The present study was done to discover how the increase in sugar consumption in Korea since the end of the 19thcentury has affected the prevalence of dental caries.
Methods: Materials were analyzed chronologically following historical periodization. Comparisons with North Korea and Japan were made.
Results: Sugar consumption increased between 1884 and the early 2000s. The DMFT index of 12-year-olds was 0.6 in 1972 and 3.3 in 2000. By the early 2000s, sugar became the processed food most consumed by Koreans averaging 23.7 kg (2000∼2006) per person per year, which is slightly above the world average. However, the DMFT index decreased to 2.16 in 2006. This occurred because the traditional Korean diet has rice as a staple food and because preventive included sealants, and multiple fluoride applications.
Conclusions: More than a century after sugar was first imported into Korea in 1884, sugar consumption is still higher and is associated with increases in dental caries. Moreover, Korean children still over-consume-sugar. Thus, further education and investigation of the problem are required.
