OBJECTIVE
To investigate the variation in sugar and energy content of cakes and biscuits available in the UK.
METHODS
We carried out a cross-sectional survey in 2016 of 381 cakes and 481 biscuits available in nine main UK supermarkets.
METHODS
The sugar and energy content was collected from product
The effect of stepwise sugar reduction in cola drinks was tested in a programmed animal experiment using Wistar rats. In a parallel study the pH-decrease at different sucrose concentrations was measured in vitro using a plaque model system which involved s. mutans (strain OMZ 176). The reduction of
The minimum amount of fluoride which, when added to sucrose, will reduce caries in an intra-oral test was determined. Removable lower-arch appliances were worn by three adult subjects for 1 week, during which time plaque-covered enamel on one side was immersed in a 10 percent sucrose solution
The World Health Organization guideline to use less sugar may be an opportunity and support for dentistry in its goal to get the message of using less sugar across to the public. Two ways (with all the combinations of these) to achieve a reduction of sugar consumption are the reduction of the amount
Controlled delivery of diagnostic or therapeutically active agents to the eye and oral cavity is limited by the efficient removal mechanisms that exist in these areas. In this work, recently isolated, purified and characterised Brazilian bean lectins were examined for their ability to bind to the
To investigate the free sugars and calorie content of carbonated sugar-sweetened beverages (CSSB) available in the main UK supermarkets.
We carried out a cross-sectional survey in 2014 of 169 CSSB.
The free sugars (sugars g/100 mL) and calorie (kcal/100 mL) were collected from product packaging and
Aims The first aim was to describe the energy, carbohydrate and sugar contents of formula milk products in eleven countries. The second was to assess the labelling methods used. Based on the findings, approaches to facilitate the selection of infant-appropriate formula milk products were
We call on dental health professionals to advocate for the integration of oral health promotion into public health, and argue that a campaign for revenue from SSB taxation to be used for oral health promotion is a good place to start. The impact of sugar on health centres on obesity, diabetes and
Objective Fluoride varnish (FV) applications reduce the risk of dental decay in research trials. These pilots were conducted to test the feasibility and costs of providing FV applications in schools. Changes in dental decay levels were also monitored.Methods Data were collected on the proportion of
Sugar-sweetened beverage (SSB) intake is associated with tooth decay, obesity and diabetes. We aimed to model the health and cost impact of reducing the serving size of all single serve SSB to a maximum of 250 ml in New Zealand. A 250 ml serving size cap was modeled for all instances of single
