Using a three-trajectory model, individuals were divided into three trajectories according to their caries development over time: high (15%), moderate (45%), or low (40%). Caries experience was expressed as the mean decayed, missing, and filled surfaces (DMFS) index.\nResults: Significant differences were found for all three trajectories and in all age groups over the 10 years. The mean DMFS index increase was significantly larger for the high trajectory group than for the moderate and low trajectory groups across all age cohorts. An increase in caries experience was observed for the older cohorts across all trajectories.\nConclusions: A three-trajectory model appears useful for identifying and quantifying caries experiences in longitudinal studies. Increased caries disease occurs over time, especially in the highest trajectory group and among older cohorts. These findings emphasise the need for greater attention and more efficient caries prevention methods.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.2340\/aos.v83.40955","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,6,20]],"date-time":"2024-06-20T08:04:30Z","timestamp":1718870670000},"page":"412-418","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Identification of Swedish caries active individuals aged 30\u201390 years using a life course perspective and SKaPa longitudinal national registry data over a 10-year period"],"prefix":"10.2340","volume":"83","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9183-7847","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"H\u00e5kan","family":"Flink","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6720-3900","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Anders","family":"Hedenbj\u00f6rk-Lager","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1463-2346","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Simon","family":"Liljestr\u00f6m","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1771-4635","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Eva","family":"Nohlert","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2812-5409","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"\u00c5ke","family":"Tegelberg","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1183","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,6,20]]},"reference":[{"key":"66366","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Halfon N, Hochstein M.
