Patient's attitudes, nutritional knowledge, dietary habits and number of new cavities since the previous visit were collected. The data obtained were statistically evaluated by Chi-square test and Fisher's exact test for four-field tables. Statistical significance was determined as p ≤ 0,05 (5 %). Dental caries at dental check-up was 46 %, at the previous dental check-up was 52 %, 77 % of the patients performed oral hygiene twice a day, 54 % consumed sweetened beverages most often, 23 % consumed sweet foods once a day. The oral hygiene status of each respondent was assessed and only 8 % of respondents had excellent oral hygiene status.

The influence of alimentation and dental hygiene on caries development
MARKOVCOVÁ, Tereza
The cause of tooth decay is bacteria commonly present in the oral cavity, sugars, dental plaque and poor dental hygiene. It is a pathological process of microbial origin that affects and destroys hard dental tissues. A healthy and balanced diet, including fluids, plays an important role in maintaining oral health. At the same time, it is important to limit the excessive intake of sugar in drinks and sweets, which has a significant role in the development of tooth decay. Nowadays, the most emphasis is placed on primary prevention, which consists of preventive dental examinations, motivation and advice in the field of proper oral hygiene. The first objective was to determine the relationship between eating habits and tooth decay in adolescents. The second objective is closely related to the first point, where the object was to find out the connection between the consumption of various drinks and tooth decay in adolescents. The last objective was to reveal the most important areas of oral hygiene and nutrition in which it is necessary to educate the adolescents. The practical part of this bachelor thesis was processed using the method of qualitative research with the help of an in-depth and semi-structured interview. The research group consisted of four nurses from the dentist's office, one dental hygienist and five adolescents. All interviews took place in February and March 2023. Individual interviews were recorded on a recording device and subsequently transcribed verbatim into Microsoft Word. Then the data was analyzed and categorized in the analytical program ATLAS.ti. The results were categorized into five categories. Categorization: Education from the nurse's perspective, Adolescent education, Adolescent awareness, Prevention, Adolescent nutrition. The categories are further divided based on the resulting answers of the female respondents into further subcategories.The results are divided into diagrams and described in detail. The research showed that the most important tool for removing dental plaque is a toothbrush and interdental products, together with an appropriately chosen brushing technique. It is also very important to educate the adolescent in the area of eating and drinking, especially with regard to sugary drinks. Furthermore, the research showed that adolescents comply with regular dental hygiene and undergo preventive dental examinations once every six months. At the same time, they are aware which foods are unfavorable for tooth decay.

The theoretical part is focused mainly on the prevention of dental caries and dental aids. There is also described the anatomy of the oral cavity, the morphology of the teeth, the structure of the teeth, the structure of the teeth as a whole and the most common diseases caused by insufficient or incorrectly performed oral hygiene. The practical part is mediated by a questionnaire survey, which took place in the 9th grade of primary school in Havlíčkův Brod. The aim was to find out what knowledge the students have about dental hygiene, dental aids and teeth in relation to the subjects of health education and natural history. The second partial goal was to find out what is their most common source of information about dental hygiene. The results of the questionnaire survey showed that the pupils of this school have a satisfactory knowledge of dental hygiene, but the anatomical knowledge about the teeth and the problems caused by the insufficient hygiene of the oral cavity is less satisfactory. It was found that pupils most often obtain information from parents, dentists or dental hygienists. On the contrary, they get the least information from advertisements and influencers. At least...

Dental health as a reflection of population lifestyle
Rybárová, Zuzana ; Bejdová, Šárka (advisor) ; Zazvonilová, Eliška (referee)
Human dentition is one of the key sources of information about the life of past as well as current populations. Due to the high proportion of inorganic components, the teeth are well preserved. Based on the state of dentition on skeletal remains, it is possible to reconstruct the diet and living conditions of archeological populations and compare them with modern populations. While the dental caries provides information about the type and composition of the diet, the enamel hypoplasia may reflect stress factors acting on an individual during early childhood. However, for the analysis of teeth, it is necessary to understand the causes of tooth diseases. Most of these diseases have multifactorial origin and are influenced by external and internal factors. This bachelor thesis describes the most commom tooth diseases and their connection with the health status and lifestyle of the individual, the impact of diet and other external factors on dentition and changes in these factors during history. Key words: human dentition, dental caries, periodontal diseases, developmental defects of enamel, subsistences, nutrition, smoking, alcohol, socioeconomic status, health status
