The Current Problem of Oral Health Due to Improper Tooth Brushing in the State of Mexico by María Elena Villaseñor Martínez in SJPBS in  Lupinepublishers

In ancient times the importance to oral hygiene was already taken, diseases were often considered a punishment of the gods for offenses inflicted on them. Subsequently, dental caries was attributed to vitiated bodily fluids or worms. The medicine of Greek and Roman times are the problems of teething (Hippocrates, 460- 377 BC, Galen, 130-200 AD) persistent milk teeth (Celso, 25 BC JC 50 Be JC) and the presence of erupted teeth in newborns (Pliny the Elder, 23-79 AD JC).In 1743 Rober Bunon, “Father of Pediatric Dentistry.” Other authors who also intervened in the birth of this specialty were LT Duchein (1759) and ND Dechément (1804) in France and Z. Fraenkel (1817) in Denmark. In Mexico, caries is a public health problem that affects about 95% of children under 8 years of age and even 99% of adults. At present this figure has decreased due to the different prevention programs that have been carried out (fluoridation of drinking water, fluoridation of table salt, etc.), but there are still no bibliographic backups that show us the exact figures of how much the percentage of caries has decreased. The prevalence of caries at national level in the years from 1987 to 1989 was from 80 to 95% in the different states of the country, and at a global level the prevalence presented discordant parameters, since in the developed countries they have reduced it through control and prevention programs at a massive level (much of Western Europe and North America), and in developing countries like Mexico where the opposite occurs. In response to this problem in 1991, the “National Salt Fluoridation Program” was launched, which seeks to reduce the frequency of dental caries in Mexico. Currently and especially in the preventive area of dentistry, different and diverse methods are available to avoid the dental diseases that most frequently occur in the individual at the early age of the latter.
