1 Departments of Foods and Nutrition and Chemistry, Utah State Agricultural College, Logan, Utah
Freshman students at Utah State Agricultural College, Branch Agricultural College, and Brigham Young University were given a dental examination. The Utah men and women, 1,135 of the 1,954 students examined, had 9 to 12 per cent more DMF teeth than the students from Idaho or out of state. These differences were highly significant. Comparisons to results of similar studies in other states were made.
The women had a greater number of DMF teeth, fewer teeth needing to be extracted, and fewer open cavities than the men.
No one area of the state as represented by these students showed a low incidence of caries attack. Differences between the number of DMF teeth and surfaces for the students from four different counties in Utah were highly significant.
