Dental and Oral Health
Teeth are made from protein matrix that is mineralized with collagen (requiring vitamin C), calcium, and phosphorus (requiring vitamins D and A)

Dental Caries
Infectious disease of teeth in which organic acid metabolites lead to gradual demineralization of enamel; proteolytic destruction of tooth structure
Any tooth surface can be affected.
![Page 7: Nutrition for Oral and Dental Health. Oral Health Diet and nutrition play a key role in —Tooth development —Gingival and oral tissue integrity —Bone.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042821/56649de55503460f94add3c8/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
The Decay Process Plaque formation: sticky mix of microorganisms,
protein, polysaccharides Bacteria metabolizing fermentable carbohydrate
produce acid Acid production: oral pH<5.5 allows tooth
demineralization Saliva function: rinses away food; neutralizes
acid; promotes remineralization Caries patterns:pattern depends on cause

Early Childhood Caries
Also called “baby bottle tooth decay” Nursing bottle caries—putting baby to bed
with a bottle of sweetened liquid (juice, Kool-Aid, etc.)
Front teeth rapidly develop caries Common among Native Americans Wean children before age 2 from bottle

Medical Sequelae of Dental Caries
Bacteria from tooth decay can enter bloodstream and inoculate heart valves, cause bacterial endocarditis
Oral-pharyngeal secretions inoculated with bacteria can cause aspiration pneumonia
![Page 13: Nutrition for Oral and Dental Health. Oral Health Diet and nutrition play a key role in —Tooth development —Gingival and oral tissue integrity —Bone.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042821/56649de55503460f94add3c8/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Fluoride
Primary anticaries agent Water fluoridation Fluoridated toothpastes Oral rinses Dentrifices Beverages made with fluoridated water
![Page 14: Nutrition for Oral and Dental Health. Oral Health Diet and nutrition play a key role in —Tooth development —Gingival and oral tissue integrity —Bone.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042821/56649de55503460f94add3c8/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Recommendations for Fluoride SupplementationRecommendations for Fluoride Supplementation
(Data from American Dietetic Association: Position of ADA: The impact of fluoride on dental health. J. Am Diet Assoc. 94:1428, 1994.) * Milligrams of supplemental fluoride recommended according to fluoride concentration in drinking water.
![Page 15: Nutrition for Oral and Dental Health. Oral Health Diet and nutrition play a key role in —Tooth development —Gingival and oral tissue integrity —Bone.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042821/56649de55503460f94add3c8/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Cariogenic vs. Cariostatic
Cariogenic: containing fermentable carbohydrates that can cause a decrease in salivary pH to <5.5 and demineralization when in contact with microorganisms in the mouth; promoting caries development
Cariostatic: not metabolized by microorganisms in plaque to cause a drop in salivary pH to <5.5
![Page 16: Nutrition for Oral and Dental Health. Oral Health Diet and nutrition play a key role in —Tooth development —Gingival and oral tissue integrity —Bone.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042821/56649de55503460f94add3c8/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Cariogenic Foods Promote formation of caries Fermentable carbohydrates, those that
can be broken down by salivary amylase Result in lower mouth pH Include crackers, chips, pretzels, cereals,
breads, fruits, sugars, sweets, desserts
![Page 17: Nutrition for Oral and Dental Health. Oral Health Diet and nutrition play a key role in —Tooth development —Gingival and oral tissue integrity —Bone.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042821/56649de55503460f94add3c8/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Cariostatic Foods
Foods that do not contribute to decay Do not cause a drop in salivary pH Includes protein foods, eggs, fish, meat and
poultry; most vegetables, fats, sugarless gums
![Page 18: Nutrition for Oral and Dental Health. Oral Health Diet and nutrition play a key role in —Tooth development —Gingival and oral tissue integrity —Bone.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042821/56649de55503460f94add3c8/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Anticariogenic Foods
Prevent plaque from recognizing an acidogenic food when it is eaten first
May increase salivation or have antimicrobial activity
Includes xylitol (sweetener in sugarless gum) and cheeses
![Page 19: Nutrition for Oral and Dental Health. Oral Health Diet and nutrition play a key role in —Tooth development —Gingival and oral tissue integrity —Bone.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042821/56649de55503460f94add3c8/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Other Factors that Affect Diet Carogenicity Consistency: Liquids are cleared quickly while
sticky foods remain on the teeth Meal frequency: frequent meals and snacks
increase duration of exposure Food composition Food form: liquid, solid, slowly dissolving Sequence of eating: cheese or milk at the end of
the meal decrease the cariogenicity of the meal
![Page 20: Nutrition for Oral and Dental Health. Oral Health Diet and nutrition play a key role in —Tooth development —Gingival and oral tissue integrity —Bone.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042821/56649de55503460f94add3c8/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

MNT for Mouth Pain/Oral Infections
Avoid acidic and spicy foods Offer soft, cold, nutrient dense foods such
as canned fruit, ice cream, yogurt, cottage cheese
Try oral supplements Use PEG or NG feeding if oral
supplementation is unsuccessful For xerostomia, try artificial salivas, citrus
beverages, sugar free candies or gums

Dental Health Affects Nutrition
Tooth loss may affect ability to chew (relationship between loss of teeth and reduced intake of fruits and vegetables
Dentures are often ill-fitting (especially common after weight loss); problem foods include fresh fruits and vegetables, chewy and crusty breads and chewy meat like steak
![Page 28: Nutrition for Oral and Dental Health. Oral Health Diet and nutrition play a key role in —Tooth development —Gingival and oral tissue integrity —Bone.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042821/56649de55503460f94add3c8/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Interventions Obtain a dental consult: if dentures are
missing, find them. If they are loose, replace or reline them
Modify diet consistency: mechanical soft, ground, pureed
Use least restrictive diet possible; individualize; mix consistencies if appropriate
![Page 29: Nutrition for Oral and Dental Health. Oral Health Diet and nutrition play a key role in —Tooth development —Gingival and oral tissue integrity —Bone.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042821/56649de55503460f94add3c8/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
MNT for Wired or Broken Jaw
Provide pureed, strained, or blenderized foods as appropriate
Encourage nutrient-dense foods such as blenderized casseroles
Recommend small, frequent meals with oral supplements such as milkshakes, Instant Breakfast, medical nutritionals
Use liquid vitamin supplement if necessary Recommend patient weigh self to monitor
weight status

swallow/cookie swallow Measurement of esophageal sphincter
pressure and peristalsis
![Page 35: Nutrition for Oral and Dental Health. Oral Health Diet and nutrition play a key role in —Tooth development —Gingival and oral tissue integrity —Bone.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042821/56649de55503460f94add3c8/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Aspiration Inhalation of food, liquid into lungs Can cause aspiration pneumonia Appears to be dose-dependent A major cause of aspiration pneumonia
is thought to be aspiration of oropharyngeal secretions, particularly if contaminated by bacteria
![Page 36: Nutrition for Oral and Dental Health. Oral Health Diet and nutrition play a key role in —Tooth development —Gingival and oral tissue integrity —Bone.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042821/56649de55503460f94add3c8/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
MNT for Dysphagia (National Dysphagia Diet)
Intervention depends on severity of deficit Mealtime supervision, cueing Thickened liquids: thin » nectarlike »
honeylike » spoon thick Altered consistency:
– Level 1: pureed– Level 2: mechanically altered– Level 3: advanced
![Page 37: Nutrition for Oral and Dental Health. Oral Health Diet and nutrition play a key role in —Tooth development —Gingival and oral tissue integrity —Bone.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042821/56649de55503460f94add3c8/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
MNT for Dysphagia In severe cases, patient may
be made NPO and enteral feedings initiated
![Page 38: Nutrition for Oral and Dental Health. Oral Health Diet and nutrition play a key role in —Tooth development —Gingival and oral tissue integrity —Bone.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042821/56649de55503460f94add3c8/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
National Dysphagia Diet NDD diets are more restrictive than
dental consistency diets; may wish to use more liberal diet for edentulous patients
Developed by consensus committee; no evidence as yet that it is effective in preventing aspiration
Provides much-needed standardization
![Page 39: Nutrition for Oral and Dental Health. Oral Health Diet and nutrition play a key role in —Tooth development —Gingival and oral tissue integrity —Bone.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042821/56649de55503460f94add3c8/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Strategies for Improving Acceptance
Thickened liquids: commercial products can improve quality and consistency of thickened liquids
Seasoning: persons with dysphagia often have dulled sense of taste. Serve seasoned foods such as spaghetti, chili, apple pie
Piping and molding: pureed foods can be thickened and molded for more attractive appearance
![Page 40: Nutrition for Oral and Dental Health. Oral Health Diet and nutrition play a key role in —Tooth development —Gingival and oral tissue integrity —Bone.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042821/56649de55503460f94add3c8/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Dysphagia Diet Issues Patients on altered
consistencies tend to eat less and often lose weight
Patients on thickened liquids are at risk for dehydration
Re-evaluate patients and advance diet as quickly as possible
