    Tooth Decay Impacts One in Five Young Children

    According to the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry’s “State of Little Teeth” report, although the prevalence of tooth decay has decreased overall, there is significant room for improvement. In the US, tooth decay affects, nearly one in five children under the age of five, about half of children aged 6-11 years old and more than half of those aged 12-19 years old. Further, children living in poverty are twice as likely to suffer from tooth decay, and their dental diseases are more than twice as likely to go untreated as their more affluent peers, according to the findings from American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry (AAPD).


    In the report, AAPD noted that the treatment of severe tooth decay can cost $10,000 per child and up to $25,000 in severe cases, especially if the child needs to be hospitalized and treated under general anesthesia. 


    Even though more children are visiting the dentist than ever before, many children have difficulty accessing pediatric dental services, according to AAPD, which calls tooth decay a public health crisis that poses an immediate and long-term threat, not just to the teeth of young children, but to their overall health and development. 


    “Tooth decay is nearly 100% preventable,” said Dr. Joseph Castellano, president,  AAPD. “Early dental visits, combined with good dental habits and dietary practices, can slow the decay process in children. In addition, a preventive approach to oral health makes dental care safer, more comfortable and even more affordable. It’s our hope that this report provides the basis for a meaningful discussion about the challenges facing the oral health of our children and what we can do about it.”


    According to this latest report, the tooth decay epidemic can be at least partially remedied by earlier and regularly scheduled dental visits for more children, achieved through advocacy by pediatric dentists, collaboration with primary care medical providers, education for parents, and removal of such barriers as transportation and language that prevent patients from visiting a dentist. Continued reform and improvement of public insurance programs will protect dental visits by children most susceptible to dental disease. As a result of these efforts, more children can enjoy a lifetime of better oral health. AAPD issued its first “State of Little Teeth” report in 2014.
