A 2-day workshop of ORCA and the IADR Cariology Research Group was organized to discuss and reach consensus on definitions of the most commonly used terms in cariology. The aims were to identify and to select the most commonly used terms of dental caries and dental caries management and to define them based on current concepts. Terms related to definition, diagnosis, risk assessment, and monitoring of dental caries were included. The Delphi process was used to establish terms to be considered using the nominal group method favored by consensus. Of 222 terms originally suggested by six cariologists from different countries, a total of 59 terms were reviewed after removing duplicates and unnecessary words. Sixteen experts in cariology took part in the process of reaching consensus about the definitions of the selected caries terms. Decisions were made following thorough “round table” discussions of each term and confirmed by secret electronic voting. Full agreement (100%) was reached on 17 terms, while the definitions of 6 terms were below the agreed 80% threshold of consensus. The suggested terminology is recommended for use in research, in public health, as well as in clinical practice.

Ziel dieser Studie war es, zu untersuchen, wie sich die Mundgesundheit und der zahnmedizinische Therapiebedarf in Deutschland entwickeln werden. In der Arbeit wurden Projektionen zur Entwicklung der Morbidität, der Mundgesundheit und dem Therapiebedarf auf Grundlage der repräsentativen Daten aus den Deutschen Mundgesundheitsstudien III (1997) und IV (2005), den epidemiologischen Begleituntersuchungen zur Gruppenprophylaxe durch die DAJ (2004-2009), den Jahrbüchern der KZBV (2003-2010), den Zahlenberichten der PKV (2006-2011) sowie den Prognosen der Bevölkerungsentwicklung vom Bundesamt für Statistik [2006] vorgenommen. Die Auswertung der Resultate hat ergeben, dass der Trend zur Verbesserung der Mundgesundheit in den nächsten 20 Jahren weiter durch alle Bevölkerungsschichten voranschreiten wird. Am stärksten wird sich die Verbesserung der Mundgesundheit bei Kindern und Jugendlichen (0,3 DMFT bei 12-Jährigen im Jahr 2030) und am schwächsten bei der Risikogruppe der Senioren (22 DMFT) zeigen. Die Anzahl der fehlenden Zähne wird bei Erwachsenen und Senioren stark zurückgehen, besonders in der Basisgruppe der Senioren von 14,1 MT (1997) auf 3,1 (2030). Die Anzahl der gefüllten Zähne wird im Durchschnitt zumeist konstant bleiben. Während Kinder und vor allem die Basisgruppe der Erwachsenen mit 12,3 FT (1997) auf 10,1 (2030) eine Reduktion von Füllungen erleben werden, wird in der Risikogruppe der Erwachsenen und bei Senioren mit deutlich mehr Füllungen gerechnet, insbesondere da hier auch mehr Zähne in Zukunft vorhanden sein werden. Die Verbesserung der Mundgesundheit kann insgesamt zu einem Rückgang des Prothetikbedarfs und zugleich zu einer Verschiebung vom herausnehmbaren zum festsitzenden Zahnersatz führen.
