Caries experience (mean DMFT) · Adults aged 19-60 years
Populations with a higher proportion of people with low socioeconomic status had higher caries experience (pooled DMFT 15.99 vs 5.50), and meta-regression associated low SES with higher DMFT (about 10.35 more DMFT per unit; p=0.050); ungraded observational evidence.

Caries increment, surface index D(M)FS · Children with high risk of dental decay
It is very uncertain whether slow-release fluoride device (fluoride glass beads) changes increase in DMFS at 2 years compared with baseline compared with placebo or usual care (control) (very low certainty).
