Dental caries and sugar intake, during and between meals, in children of an Israeli Kibbutz

Forty‐eight children of an Israeli Kibbutz, aged 2–6 years, were examined for dental caries and dietary cariogenic intake, during and between meals. Multiple regression analysis was computed. A higher positive regression coefficient was found for caries and “during meals” cariogenic. intake than for caries and “between meals” intake. Both coefficients, but not the difference between them, were found statistically significant.
