Résumé

Il s’agit d’une étude transversale à but descriptif réalisée à partir de dossiers cliniques de 100 enfants marocains âgés de 6 à 15 ans ayant consulté le centre hospitalo-universitaire de Rabat au Maroc entre janvier et décembre 2009.
Les critères d’inclusion sont l’âge, l’origine marocaine, les quatre premières molaires permanentes ayant fait leur éruption et un dossier clinique complet. Les critères d’exclusion sont la non-éruption d’une dent de six ans et un dossier clinique incomplet. Les paramètres cliniques relevés sont : l’âge, le sexe, le brossage, l’alimentation et l’état des premières molaires permanentes (carie, extraction, obturation).
Les résultats ont montré que 65% des enfants entre 6 et 15 ans ont au moins une première molaire permanente cariée. 8% des enfants ont au moins une obturation sur la première molaire permanente et 4% des enfants ont déjà extrait une première molaire permanente. La carie touchait les deux sexes, les deux secteurs droit et gauche, et les deux arcades supérieure et inférieure sans différence statistiquement significative (p > 0,05). La présence de la carie augmentait, par contre, avec l’âge (p < 0,05). La relation entre la présence de carie, le brossage et la qualité de l’alimentation est non significative (p < 0,05).
Ces résultats sont en concordance avec de nombreuses études et montrent une cario-sensibilité particulière de la première molaire permanente.

Abstract
First permanent molar caries: a case study of Moroccan children between 6 and 15 year-old

It is a transverse descriptive study realized from clinical files of 100 Moroccan children aged between 6 and 15 year-old having consulted the Rabat Dental Hospital (U.T.H. Ibn Sina) in Morocco between January and December 2009.
The criteria of inclusion are age, Moroccan origin, first four permanent molars having made their eruption and a complete clinical file. The criteria of exclusion are the non-eruption of a first permanent molar and an incomplete clinical file. The clinical parameters are: age, sex, tooth brushing, quality of alimentation and the condition of the first permanent molars (caries, extraction, filling).
The results showed that 65 % of the children between 6 and 15 years have at least a first decayed permanent molar. 8% of the children have at least a filling material on the first permanent molar and 4% of the children have already extracted a first permanent molar. The caries touch both sexes, both right and left sectors and both superior and lower arches without statistically significant difference (p > 0,05). The presence of the caries increased, on the other hand, with the age (p < 0,05). The relation between presence of caries, tooth brushing and quality of alimentation is not significant (p < 0,05).
These results are in accordance with numerous studies and show a particular cario-sensibility of the first permanent molar.
