Dentistry Today – November 14 Obesity and dental cavities become worse as impoverished children grow older, according to a new study (Journal of Pediatric Health Care). Researchers determined that as body mass index went up as children got older, the numbers of cavities increased. The lack of access to healthy food, the inability to refrigerate food, and the lack of running water are just some of the issues impoverished people face, along with the inability to receive dental treatment or the inability to secure transportation to the treatment.
