Archaeological oral health: a comparison of post-medieval and modern-day dental caries exposure of adults in East London.

Abstract:

:Modern levels of dental decay worldwide are on the rise. This study aimed to calculate historical rates of decay and compare them with recent figures. To compare the rate of dental decay in East Londoners from a post-medieval burial ground and a published modern sample, a database of human remains held at the Museum of London Archaeology (MOLA) was interrogated. The resulting numbers of decayed and missing teeth were analysed and compared to the East London Oral Health Inequality study initially undertaken in 2010. A lower decayed/missing/filled teeth (DMFT) score was seen in the post-medieval burials.
