(EMAILWIRE.COM, June 06, 2013 ) San Francisco, CA -- New research by scientists at Queen Mary University in London, UK was carried out over a three year period. The researchers found that that almost half of the worldÂ’s population has signs of dental disease. According to the report, the prevalence of dental disease has increased 20 percent over the last 20 years and doesnÂ’t seem to be getting better.
The researchers attribute the main reasons for poor dental health and the increase in oral diseases to people living longer than before and eating less healthy, more processed, sugary foods and drinks than were available in the past.
Lead author of the study, Professor Wagner Marcenes, said that “we are facing serious problems of untreated conditions causing toothache and preventing people from eating or sleeping.” He added that unfortunately, “this doesn’t even include small cavities or mild gum diseases.” Professor Marcenes said that the longer people keep their natural teeth, the greater the pressure to preserve them, noting back to people living longer.
The research was carried out by 500 scientists around the entire world, who carried out systematic reviews of data on oral diseases. The data collected was gathered from reports from the last 20 years from almost every country in all seven continents.
