PURPOSE: This study was conducted to document the prevalence of occlusal caries experience and periodontal pathology for erupting third molars in young adults.
PATIENTS AND METHODS: The data are from 49 subjects enrolled in an institutional review board-approved trial with at least one third molar below the occlusal plane at baseline that erupted by longest follow-up. Teeth were considered erupted if they reached the occlusal plane. Caries experience on the occlusal surface of third molars was assessed by a visual-tactile examination. At least 1 periodontal probing depth (PD) >or=4 mm in the third molar region was considered indicative of periodontal pathology. The third molar region was defined as the 6 probing sites around third molars and 2 sites on the distal of second molars. The prevalence of third molar caries experience and periodontal pathology at longest follow-up was assessed.
RESULTS: Most of the 49 subjects were female (51%), Caucasian (76%), and educated at least through high school (82%). Median age was 20.5 years (interquartile range [IQR] 18.4 to 24.1 years). Median follow-up was 5.1 years (IQR = 3.4 to 6.9 years). At baseline, none of the subjects had occlusal caries experience in a third molar; 51% of subjects had at least 1 PD >or=4 mm in a third molar region. At follow-up, 27% of the subjects had occlusal caries experience in at least 1 third molar that erupted to the occlusal plane; 61% had at least 1 PD >or=4 mm in a third molar region. Twenty-nine percent had occlusal caries in at least 1 third molar at the occlusal plane and at least 1 PD >or=4 mm in a third molar region. Thirty-seven percent had no third molar occlusal caries experience and all third molar region PD <4 mm.
CONCLUSIONS: For third molars that erupted "late," periodontal pathology was more prevalent than occlusal caries.
