Tracking the development of caries in relation to socioeconomic variables over time is essential for fair resource distribution to groups with higher caries risk and to even out inequalities in oral health. The aim was therefore to analyse the association between 6-year-olds´ caries prevalence and socioeconomic variables at family and residential area levels in 2010 and 2019 and the trends in these associations. Methods : The study design is an epidemiological registry-based, repeated cross-sectional study based on caries data (grouped as 0, 1–3 and >3 dmft) for the population of 6-year-olds in 2010 (n =4,408, 95% coverage) and 2019 (n =5,199, 94% coverage) in a Swedish region. Multiple socioeconomic variables for the children’s families and residential areas were retrieved from official registries. Multinomial logistic regression was performed at both levels to produce models for each level and studied year. Results: The variables that explained most of the association between caries and socioeconomic variables were mainly the same over the years at both levels. At the family level, these were: maternal age when having their first child (explained most of the association in both years, at 30 and 35%, respectively); maternal age when having the child in the study group; parental employment; parental and child’s migration background; maternal educational level; form of housing; and financial assistance (only 2010). At the residential area level, these were: migration background (explained most of the association both years; 82 and 52 %, respectively), educational level and number of persons per household. The association between socioeconomic variables and caries was consistently stronger for severe caries (dmft >3) than moderate (dmft 1–3). Multiple socioeconomic risk variables meant even greater likelihood of caries. Conclusion: Over the studied years, variables related with socioeconomics vulnerability continued to be associated with caries in young children growing up under socially disadvantaged circumstances. Effective efforts for families living in socially vulnerable contexts are needed to achieve good and equal oral health, as is continued follow-up to evaluate whether the goal is reached. epidemiology caries socioeconomic status preschool children family residential area Figures Figure 1 Figure 2 Figure 3 Figure 4 Background For decades it has been acknowledged that good health has become a particular benefit of more well-resourced individuals in society. First described by Black in England in the 1980s, this inequity in health has been established in studies worldwide.( 1 – 3 ) Health inequity arises from inequity in the social conditions in which people are born, grow, work, live, and age.( 4 ) Social determinants of health refer to an individual's living conditions, which are shaped by socio-economic and political contexts, in interaction with the individual's socio-economic position such as income, education, occupation, and ethnicity, which also affects, for example, material circumstances, behaviours, and biological factors, ultimately affecting health outcomes.( 5 ) In addition, there is a social gradient; health gradually deteriorates with lower social position.( 4 ) Inequalities in oral health follow the same pattern as inequalities in general health.( 6 , 7 ) Worldwide, 3.5 billion people suffer from poor oral health conditions and vulnerable groups are disproportionately affected.( 8 ) Although largely preventable, dental caries remain one of the world's major non-communicable diseases (NCD) and untreated caries was the most common health condition globally in 2019, affecting one third of the world’s population.( 9 ) In total, 514 million children (1–9 years old) in the world are affected, and prevalence ranges from 46% in upper-middle-income countries to 38% to in high-income countries.( 8 ) In its severe form, caries can cause pain and adversely affect sleep, learning, and quality of life.( 10 ) Caries in small children are related to continued caries progression later in life and poorer self-rated general health by midlife.( 11 , 12 ) Caries is preventable and if detected in its´ early stages also reversable.( 13 ) However, preventive actions directed to the general public may increase oral health gaps as they mainly impact resourceful families, since families and children in socially vulnerable areas visit dental care to lesser extent and are less likely to have access to or take part in caries prevention initiatives.( 14 , 15 ) Caries preventive actions directed toward at-risk children rather than to the entire population of children are also more cost-effective.( 16 ) Family and area socioeconomic characteristics are suggested to identify families or areas with increased risk of disease to initiate preventive efforts or as a basis for distribution of public resources.( 17 – 19 ) For example, in regions in Sweden, capitation per child patient is issued to dental care providers based on socioeconomic conditions of the child’s residential area through the Care Need Index (CNI).( 20 ) In Sweden, the prevalence of caries has decreased over the last few decades and in an international comparison, oral health in Swedish children is fairly good.( 21 ) Between 1973 and 2013, the proportion of caries-free pre-school children (5-year-olds) increased from 9–69%.( 21 ) However, in recent years, the positive trend regarding caries in children of preschool age has stagnated and the percentage of caries-free 6-year-olds decreased between the years 2010 and 2019 from 78–72%, and WHOS´s goal—80% of 6-years-old caries-free by 2020—was not achieved.( 22 , 23 ) Furthermore, despite the generally good oral health of the population and the fact that dental health services, including preventive measures, are free of charge for children and young people until the age of 23, inequalities in oral health due to unequal living conditions are also found in Sweden.( 24 , 25 ) Similar to international studies, a recent study from Sweden showed multiple family socioeconomic status variables (ethnicity, wealth, parental education, and employment) were associated with dental caries experience in children.( 26 , 27 ). Moreover, regardless of the family's social situation, their residential area can be related to children's oral health through the transmission of norms and behaviours in the social interaction in the immediate surroundings; the so-called ‘neighbourhood effect’.( 28 , 29 ) A study showed that children in Sweden living in the most deprived areas were five times more likely to experience caries than peers living in the most affluent areas.( 30 ) In order to even out the modifiable differences in oral health and enable a fair prioritisation of resources based on the population's needs, it is important to follow the development of caries and caries risk over time from a socioeconomic perspective to identify oral health inequities and at-risk groups.( 31 , 32 ) As the positive development in the proportion of caries-free 6-year-olds has stagnated in Sweden since 2010, it is of value to analyse how the association between family and residential area socioeconomic variables and caries prevalence in 6-year-olds has developed recent years. The overall aim of the study was to analyse the association between 6-year-olds´ caries prevalence and socioeconomic variables at family and residential area levels in 2010 and 2019, and the trends in these associations between these years. Methods The study design is an epidemiological registry-based repeated cross-sectional study. It took place in the region of Östergötland, in southeast Sweden, which is the fourth largest region in Sweden with a population of 468,000 inhabitants (in year 2021) living in both rural and urban areas.( 33 ) The dental health development in the region in terms of caries-free children follows national development.( 23 , 34 ) Basic oral health information is delivered to all children staying in the region, from pre-birth until 19 years of age, and their parents, with the aim of ensuring good opportunities for the children to maintain or achieve good oral health. Since 2006, resources have also been allocated for extended preventive efforts to be carried out in areas with low socioeconomic status based on area-based socioeconomics to reduce oral health differences within the region. As a part of the regional and national follow-up of oral health, dental health service providers (public and private dental clinics) in the region report epidemiological caries data to Region Östergötland for all examined 3, 6, 12 and 19-year-olds, and, since 2019, all 23-year-olds. Study group Study groups consisted of the population of children (born 2004 and 2013) who, as 6-year-olds, (during 2010 and 2019), visited dental care in the region of Östergötland for oral examination. The population of 6-year-olds in the region was 4,630 in 2010 and 5,506 in 2019. ( 34 , 35 ) Those 6-year-olds who did not have caries data, a link to residential area, or completely lacked socioeconomic variables were excluded. Data collection The caries data were retrieved from the epidemiological caries data reported to Region Östergötland by dental health providers in the region labelled with the individual´s social security number (a unique ten-digit code for all Swedish residents). Caries prevalence variable (dependent variable) was measured in dmft, referring to the number of decayed, missing, or filled primary teeth and categorised into three groups: no caries (dmft = 0), moderate caries experience (dmft = 1–3), and severe caries experience (dmft > 3).( 36 , 37 ) In this context, caries refers to manifest (dentin) caries; that is, caries that have passed through the enamel and into the dentin.( 21 ) Caries were diagnosed at oral examinations based on clinical and radiographic findings by the child’s ordinary dental caregiver. Statistics Sweden´s (SCB, responsible for official statistics in Sweden) classification of Sweden's municipalities into smaller geographical areas, so-called ‘key code areas’ (NYKO), was used as a definition for residential area (henceforth referred to as ‘area’). NYKO is available at several sizes, from single properties to larger areas.( 38 ) Smaller areas expose more of the socioeconomic disparities in society compared to larger areas, and with respect to confidentiality, one of the smallest divisions, the NYKO4 division, was used in the present study.( 20 , 30 ) Socioeconomic variables (independent variables) originated from official registries provided by SCB were used. The link between the children´s caries prevalence, socioeconomic information, and area was established by SCB through the social security numbers. Before the data records were delivered to researchers, the social security numbers were replaced with serial numbers. Variables were divided into relevant categories inspired by previous research.( 20 , 26 , 30 , 39 ) A complete description of each variable and associated categories is presented in appendix 1. Family-level variables were retrieved for either the children in the study group and/or their parents. Background data (gender), ethnicity, migration background, family type, and number of children in the household was retrieved for each child. Number of persons per household, disposable income, financial assistance, housing allowance, form of housing, urban or rural area, was retrieved for each parent with whom the child was registered. Migration background, age when the child in study group was born, age when first child was born, employment, and educational level was retrieved on both the mother and the father respectively. In cases where an adoptive mother or father existed, they replaced the biological parent. Missing values (see appendix 2a) in the variables on family level were replaced using multiple imputation.( 40 ) At the area level , socioeconomic data for the total population living in each area were retrieved. This included the following variables: background data (age and gender), ethnicity, migration background, age (when the first child was born), employment, education, family type, number of children in household, household size, disposable income and high-income households, financial assistance, housing allowance, form of housing, urban/rural area, and CNI. Data consisted of proportions or averages of habitants for each categorised variable. Analyses and statistics To describe 6-year-olds´ caries prevalence and socioeconomic variables at family (non-imputed data) and area levels in 2010 and 2019, descriptive statistics was reported on categorical (frequency and percentage) and continuous variables (mean, standard deviation, and range) for both years. Independent sample t-tests (continuous variables) and chi 2 tests (categorical variables) were performed to analyse trends between the studied years. To analyse the association between 6-year-olds´ caries prevalence and socioeconomic variables, multinomial logistic regression models were performed at the family (imputed data) and area level for 2010 and 2019. The association between caries experience and socioeconomic variables was expressed by odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI). To analyse time trends in the associations between caries prevalence and socioeconomic variables, time interactions for each variable and caries category were tested. For significance testing on imputed data the median, pooling rules were used for p-values.( 41 ) For the area level, NYKO codes were used as random intercepts to address potential correlations between persons living in the same area. Primarily, univariable logistic regression analysis for each independent variable per studied level and year was performed. Secondly, four adjusted multivariable models were analysed; one for each level and for each studied year (background variables excluded). Multicollinearity was tested using variance inflation factors (VIF), and values over five were considered problematic. If two independent variables were strongly correlated with each other according to VIF, the variable with the strongest association with 6-year-olds´ caries prevalence was included in the model. At the family level, all variables were included in the models. At the area level, the included variables (and categories) were: migration background (proportion with foreign background), parental age when the first child was born (average age of mothers/fathers at the birth of their first child), employment (proportion without employment), educational level (proportion with highest attained education elementary school), family type (proportion of single mothers/fathers), number of persons/ household (average number of persons/ household), disposable income (median disposable income/consumption unit/household divided by 100,000), financial assistance (proportion of households receiving financial assistance), housing allowance (proportion of households with housing allowance), form of housing (proportion of families renting), urban/rural area (proportion of households in urban areas), and area CNI (> 1). Ethnicity, number of children/ household, proportion of high-income households were excluded due to multicollinearity. Descriptive figures were created to visualise changes in caries prevalence between the studied years and different groups based on relevant socioeconomic variables and relevant cut-offs for each variable. Absolute (difference in proportion of caries-free children) and relative (unadjusted OR) inequalities were calculated. Goodness of fit (pseudo-R2) for multivariable models were assessed with McFadden and Nagelkerke. Statistical significance level was set to < 0.05. All analyses were performed using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS vn.29) and R v.4.2.3. Results Population characteristics In 2010 4,431 6-year-olds (95.7 %) had an oral examination of which 4,408 (95%) was included in the study as they have met the inclusion criteria with eligible data for caries, area and socioeconomic variables. Corresponding figures in 2019 were 5,206 examined 6-year-olds (94.5%) of which 5,199 (94%) could be included in the study. The population was distributed within 622 areas in 2010 and 651 in 2019. On the family level, there was a difference ( p =<0.001 ) in caries experience between the studied years. In 2010, 78 of the children in the study group were caries-free (dmft =0); for 2019, the corresponding proportion was 74% and the proportion with dmft >3 increased from 9.3% to 11.5% ( p <0.001). The percentile with the most caries had dmft of 3 or above in 2010 and dmft 4 or above in 2019; for the other percentiles the dmft remained unchanged. Mean dmft among 6-year-olds per area was 0.74 in 2010 and 0.85 in 2019 ( p =0.148 ). Descriptive data for caries prevalence and socioeconomic variables Table 1a–b presents the main results for descriptive data on caries prevalence and the distribution of socioeconomic variables at family and area levels for 2010 and 2019 and whether there were significant differences in proportions between the studied years. For the full table, see appendix 2a–b. At the family level all variables but four displayed significant differences in proportions between 2010 and 2019 (table 1a), e.g., the proportions of children born in Sweden had decreased from 94% to 93%, and the proportion of children born outside Europe grew by 1.3 percentage points (pp). The proportions of children and parents with foreign migration backgrounds had increased among children from 17% to 23%, and for parents from 22% to 30%. For maternal age when child in study group, and for when first child was born, there was an increase in proportions of parents >35 years of age from 19% to 22%, from 6.3% to 7.5%, respectively; and a decrease of proportions of mothers aged 25–34y from 67% to 63% from 62% to 61%. The proportion of mothers with the highest attained education being high school had decreased from 43% to 38%, while the proportion with only elementary school (low educational level) had increased from 10% to 14%.

In Table 1b, the main results for caries prevalence and socioeconomic variables at the area level for 2010 and 2019 are presented. Background data (age, gender), ethnicity, migration background, maternal age (when the first child was born), employment, education, family type, number of children per household, and disposable income displayed significant differences in proportions between studied years; E.g., the mean proportion born in Sweden had decreased from 91 to 88% and the mean proportion with foreign migration background had increased from 11% to 15%. The mean average maternal age when the first child was born had increased from 27.6 years to 28.4 years. The mean proportion of parents with higher education had increased from 34% to 39%, while the mean proportion with elementary or high-school education had decreased from 15% to 11% and from 50% to 48%, respectively. The mean average number of persons per household was 2.4 in 2010 and 2.3 in 2019 (p =0.066). Table 1b.

Association between caries prevalence and socioeconomic variables Family level In the univariable regression analysis at the family level, all socioeconomic variables included in the study were associated with the likelihood of caries prevalence in both years (except gender and number of persons/ households in 2019). The association between socioeconomic variables and caries prevalence was consistently stronger for severe caries than for moderate. For the variables, maternal age when the child in the study group was born, parental age when first child was born, maternal educational level, family type, number of persons per household, financial assistance, form of housing OR was significantly lower in 2019 than in 2010. A selection of socioeconomic variables and their association with caries on the family level in 2010 and 2019 are presented in Table 2 (for full table, see appendix 2a). Table 2.

The result of the multivariable models of the socioeconomic variables that explained most of the association with caries are presented in Table 3, arranged by the variables contribution of explanation to the 2019s model. The goodness of fit: were McFadden=0.17 (2010), 0.13 (2019); Nagelkerke=0.28 (2010), 0.22 (2019). The variables that explained most of the association both years were maternal age upon having their first child, parental and child migration background, form of housing, paternal employment, maternal education, maternal age when the child in the study group was born, and financial assistance—but with some variation in the proportion of explanation between the years. Financial assistance was included in the 2010 model but not in the 2019. For maternal educational level OR caries experience was significantly lower in 2019 than in 2010 ( p ≤0.01). Very young/young maternal age when the first child was born explained most of the association (35% in 2010 and 30% in 2019) both years. Children whose mothers had their first child before the age of 25 were more than twice as likely to suffer severe caries disease than children whose mothers were between 25 and 34 years when they had their first child. Children with multiple risk variables had an even higher likelihood of caries experience. For instance, the OR for severe caries for children with maternal age when first child was born <20 years and with foreign maternal background was 6.0 (2.6*2.3). The proportion of children and parents with foreign migration background had increased between 2010 and 2019 (Table 1a), and migration background remained one of the most important explanatory variables in the models, explaining the association between caries and socioeconomic variables in 2010 and 2019 (Table 3). Figure 1 present a comparison of the caries prevalence between 2010 and 2019 for children with foreign migration background and native migration background. The proportion of caries-free children with foreign migration background was unchanged between 2010 and 2019 ( p =0.97), the proportion of caries-free among children with native migration background was 2pp lower in 2010 than in 2010 ( p =0.13). The unadjusted OR for caries prevalence (dmft >0) for children with foreign migration backgrounds in relation to children with native migration backgrounds was 7.3 in 2010, and 6.7 in 2019. In the models (Table 3), OR for caries prevalence for children with low maternal level of education was significantly lower in 2019 than in 2010 in comparison to higher level of education. Figure 2 present the caries prevalence in relation to maternal level of education in 2010 respective to 2019 at the family level. The proportion of caries-free children with low maternal levels of education had increased from 44% in 2010 to 52% in 2019 ( p <0.01). The proportion of caries-free children with higher maternal levels of education was 2pp lower in 2019 (83%) compared to 2010 (85%) ( p =0.15). Hence, the difference in the proportion of caries-free children between children with the lowest and highest maternal level of education was 10pp lower in 2019 than in 2010, from 41 (85%-44%) to 31 percentage points (83%-52%). The unadjusted OR for children with low maternal education, in relation to children with high maternal education, was 7.38 in 2010 and decreased to 4.62 in 2019 ( p <0.001). Area level In the univariable analysis at area level, all socioeconomic variables included in the study showed associations with the likelihood of caries prevalence in both 2010 and 2019 and the associations were stronger for severe caries than moderate (Table 4). However, for ethnicity or migration background (foreign), employment (proportion of unemployed), level of education (proportion with elementary or high-school education), family type (proportion of single mothers), (proportions of households with) financial assistance, or housing allowance, the OR for severe caries was lower in 2019 than in 2010. For paternal age when first child was born, (median) disposable income per consumption unit/ household, (proportion) of high-income households, the OR was less than 1 both years and had increased.

The results of the multivariable models the socioeconomic variables and the associated categories that explained most of the association with caries at the area level are presented in Table 5, arranged by the d variables contribution of explanation to the 2019 model. The goodness of fit were: McFadden=0.10 (2010), 0.08 (2019); Nagelkerke=0.17 (2010), 0.14 (2019). The variables that explained most of the association between caries and socioeconomic variables were the same in both 2010 and 2019, but with some variation in the proportion of model explanation. These were proportions with foreign background, proportions with low education, and average number of persons per household. Proportions with foreign background explained most of the association in both years (82% in 2010 and 52% in 2019). The OR for proportions with foreign backgrounds was significantly lower in 2019 than in 2010 (p <0.001), and the OR for the proportion with low education were significantly higher in 2019 than in 2010 (p <0.001). There was a positive correlation (R=0.62, p<0.001) between the average number of persons per household in the area and the proportion of residents owning their own house. In 2019, the OR for severe caries was 1.03 for the proportion with a foreign migrant background and the proportion with the highest level of education compulsory school (low education), which means that the odds increase by 1.03 for every pp with an increased proportion of residents with a foreign migration background or low education in the area. For example, for children growing up in an area with an increased proportion of inhabitants of 10pp with low education OR for severe caries was 1.34 (1.03^10), compared to an area with a lower proportion. If the proportion of inhabitants with foreign migration background also was 10pp higher, then OR was 1.81 (1.03^10*1.03^10). There was a gradient of increased prevalence of caries for areas with an increased proportion of inhabitants with foreign migration background from the areas with the lowest proportion (<10%) to the areas with the highest proportion (≥40%) of inhabitants with foreign backgrounds (Figure 3). Between 2010 and 2019, there was a decrease of caries-free children in the third group (20%–29.9%), and an increase in the fourth group (30%–39.9%). The proportion of caries-free children in the areas with the lowest proportions with foreign migration background was 85% in 2010 and 84% in 2019 ( p =0.20), and 41% in 2010 and 46% ( p =0.15) in 2019 in the areas with the highest proportion; hence the difference in caries prevalence between the areas was 6pp less in 2019 than in 2010. The unadjusted OR for caries experience in areas with the highest proportion with foreign migration background in comparison to areas with the least was 6.3 in 2019 compared to 8.3 in 2010 (p = 0.07). Figure 3. Caries prevalence by residential area based on the proportion of inhabitants with foreign background The gradient was also evident when analysing groups in areas with increased proportions of inhabitants with low education (Figure 4). Between 2010 and 2019, the proportion of caries-free children remained high; 87% in 2010 and 85% in 2019, in the areas with least proportion of inhabitants with low education (20%) the corresponding figures were 55% and 46% (p<0.001). Hence the difference in caries prevalence between areas with the highest proportion of inhabitants with low education, compared to areas with the lowest proportion, was 7pp higher in 2019 compared to 2010. In 2010, the unadjusted OR for caries experience in areas with the highest proportions of inhabitants with low education was 5.5, in comparison to areas with the lowest proportions, and 6.6 in 2019 ( p =0.41). Figure 4. Caries prevalence by residential area based on the proportion of inhabitants with low educational level Discussion The overall aim of this paper was to study the development of 6-year-olds´ caries prevalence between 2010 and 2019 in relation to socioeconomic variables at family and residential area levels. The variables explaining the association between caries and socioeconomic variables were largely the same within each level and partly the same between the levels studied years. Despite changes in associations between studied years, the associations with caries prevalence and socioeconomic variables remained significant both years. The overall results indicate that socioeconomic variables on both levels continued to be associated with caries in 6-year-olds and the associations were consistently stronger for severe caries experience (dmft >3) than moderate (dmft 1-3 ), gradually increasing with higher levels of socioeconomic vulnerability. When adjusting for confounders in the multivariable analysis, the models at both levels contained several explanatory variables in the association with caries, and children having multiple risk variables had even higher likelihood of caries experience. At the family level, the explanatory socioeconomic variables were maternal age when the first child was born, maternal age when child in the study group was born, parental employment, migration background of both parents and children, type of housing, and financial assistance (2010 only); and at area level migration background, parental educational level and number of persons per household. The ORs in the models were reduced compared to the univariable analysis. The results illustrates the complex relationship between the different socioeconomic variables and health.(42) On the family level, maternal age when the first child was born explained most of the association for both years, and at the area level, mean parental age when having the first child was associated with caries in the univariable analysis. Maternal age at childbirth may not be a socioeconomic variable in and of itself, but is associated with maternal socioeconomic situation and health outcome in offspring as well as being a risk indicator for caries, as both our and previous studies have shown.(39, 43) In our study, maternal age <25 of the first child was associated with a higher likelihood of caries in the child and the associations were even stronger for mothers having their first child <20 years of age. In addition, maternal age when having the child in the study group also showed an increased likelihood of severe caries if the mother's age was 34 years at childbirth. This finding is supported by an earlier study from Sweden demonstrating a U-shaped association between caries in children and maternal age, where mothers 35 years at childbirth had an increased risk of caries in their children.(44) The fact that the U-shape is not observed for the age at the first child may be because the number of children in the family is also a predictor for caries, as caries risk increases with higher birth order among siblings; perhaps because this means that more children need to share the same limited parental resources.(45, 46) At the area level, migration background explained most of the relationship in both years, followed by the educational variable. At the family level, children's and parents' migration backgrounds were associated with caries, as was maternal level of education. Our result is in line with an analysis performed by the National Board of Health and Welfare in Sweden of the oral health development in children of preschool age and the interaction between children's oral health and their social and demographic background between 2011 and 2019.(47) According to their analysis country of birth, education and income were the three factors most clearly associated with children's oral health. Country of birth had the strongest connection; children whose parents were born abroad had almost three times the risk of suffering from caries compared to children of native-born parents. At the area level, living in areas with an increased average of number of persons per household was associated with decreased likelihood of caries. At the family level, however, more than five people per household were associated with an increased likelihood of caries in the univariable analysis, which, as mentioned, previous studies also identified.(44, 45) The relative inconsistency of this, and of other variables, between family and area levels, may be due to the heterogeneity within the areas. For example, in our study, areas with a higher average of number of persons per household also had an increased proportion of inhabitants owning their own house, which was associated with a reduced likelihood of caries in the univariable analysis. In areas with many houses, in addition to families with children, many elderly people also live alone in their houses. In socially disadvantaged areas, there is a large proportion of apartments, where, in addition to families, there are also many students and single households, which lowers the average number per household of the area. This heterogeneity within areas may be the reason why the results at area and individual levels diverges to some extent. Composite indices describing multiple socioeconomic conditions in an area have been argued to be more stable and robust.(26, 48) In our study, the CNI was used as a composite socioeconomic index at the area level. CNI is a well-used composite index for resource allocation which takes into account the composition of the inhabitants in an area based on several constituent variables (proportions of inhabitants within the area aged +65 living alone, born abroad, unemployed, aged 16–64 years, single parent with children <18, person who moved into the area).(20, 49) In the univariable analysis, CNI stood out in terms of the likelihood of severe caries; however, when adding other variables, which were partly the ones that build up the CNI variable, CNI was not significant in the model. The contextual social conditions in areas and the impact they have on the families living there—for example on children’s oral health—were highlighted in a recent study from the Netherlands.(50) After adjusting for individual and neighborhood characteristics neighborhood deprivation remained significantly associated with severe caries and low odds of visiting the dentist yearly in 6-years-olds. In the analysis of oral health development in children of preschool age made by the National Board of Health and Welfare in Sweden, however, no neighbourhood effects after adjusting for individual social factors were seen, suggesting family characteristics has greater impact than area on caries in 6-years-olds. (47) In our study, based on goodness of fit, the models on family level were better than the area level models at estimating caries prevalence. However, the National Board of Health and Welfare in Sweden also noted that in general, more children with an increased risk of caries live in vulnerable areas, as individual socioeconomic conditions are linked to an increased risk for caries; therefore, targeting efforts to these areas is a way to reach children at a greater risk of caries. Area level socioeconomic status is useful for measuring geographical inequalities, for distributing and evaluating health preventive efforts and as a proxy for individual SES; for example, where individual data is lacking due to confidentiality.(51) However, when using area level this way it is important to acknowledge the described heterogenicity within the areas and that the association between socioeconomic prerequisites and dental caries is at a population level, which is not the caries situation on the family level.(52) On the family level, there was an increased proportion of caries-free 6-years-olds with low level of maternal education during the years studied. This improvement was not seen among the group of children with a foreign migration background. It is likely that the group of children with foreign migration background have had fewer opportunities to take part in the preventive measures offered by the region, since they have lived in the region for a shorter time. This improvement in oral health among children at potentially higher risk of tooth decay may indicate that the preventive measures offered by the region have reached children with a potentially higher risk of caries. However, during the same time period, there was an increased proportion of children with caries experience among children whose mothers’ highest attained education level was high school. This finding and the gradient in health found in our study, as well as in previous research, indicate the importance of oral health efforts being universal, to all, but also proportional, gradually increased with increased risk of disease.(4) A repeated cross-sectional study comparing time trends in caries-prevalence for 15-year-old Danish adolescents concluded persisting associations between socioeconomic position and dental caries from 1995 up until 2013.(53) During that period, there was a steep decline in caries prevalence for all social groups in Denmark and a decrease in absolute inequality as the difference in caries prevalence between the groups decreased in both groups improving in terms of caries prevalence. However, relative inequality between different social groups had increased as the difference in likelihood of caries disease (OR) had increased. In our study, there was no general reduction in the prevalence of caries between years studied—rather the opposite. However, for maternal level of education at the family level, both absolute and relative inequalities had decreased, as the difference in the proportion of caries-free children and the likelihood of developing caries between children with the lowest and highest levels of maternal education had decreased. Despite these positive trends, no change in absolute or relative inequality (or the opposite) was observed for migration background at either level or for the educational variable at the area level. Furthermore, the association between caries prevalence in 6-year-olds and low level of education, migration background, and all the other variables included in the models (except financial assistance) continued to be significantly associated with caries at both levels during the period studied. The result is in accordance with the Lancet series on oral health, declaring persistent oral health inequalities disproportionately affect poorer and marginalised groups in society.(7, 54) Furthermore, as caries in early childhood is a risk factor of poor oral health, continued caries disease and need for dental care as an adult, childhood caries can affect an individual throughout life and established inequalities in health that persist over time.(55, 56) Oral health shares the same risk factors as other non-communicable diseases (NCD) closely linked to the social determinants of health—for example, diabetes and obesity—hence the development in caries prevalence in deciduous teeth may serve as a measurable indicator of these and for the development of health inequalities in society.(8, 12, 57, 58) In the Lancet series, Watt et al. argue that a fundamentally different approach than the current treatment-dominated approach is needed with upstream, midstream, and downstream policies and interventions targeting the underlying social determinants of health in joint action with the prevention of other NCDs.(54) The increase in caries prevalence among 6-year-olds between 2010 and 2019 observed at the family level in the present study was also observed nationwide.(23) During the same period, the proportion of children and parents with foreign migration backgrounds had increased in our study. The proportion with caries experience in the groups with foreign respective native migrant background remained unchanged, but with a significantly larger proportion of 6-year-olds with caries experience in the group with a foreign migration background. As already described, caries prevalence is heavily skewed worldwide, ranged from 18.7%–53.2% between different countries, and Sweden is among the countries with an average better oral health in the population.(8) The increase in caries prevalence among 6-year-olds during the studied period can therefore partly be explained by the population with foreign migration background being larger in 2019 than in 2010. In the national in-depth analysis of oral health development in children up to 6 years of age, it was also assessed that the increased proportion of children with a migrant background could partly explain the increase in caries prevalence in 6-year-olds between 2013 and 2019. (47) Since Region Östergötland is the fourth largest region in Sweden, with both rural and urban areas, and since regional epidemiological caries data follow the national development, the results are considered representative of the Swedish population and can also be generalised to other countries with similar conditions as, for example, Scandinavian countries with similar welfare systems. Since this study was conducted, recent national data on caries prevalence has indicated that the negative trend in decrease of caries-free children seems to have broken after 2019. In 2021, the proportion of caries-free 6-year-olds was 75%.(23, 59) However, national data and research have shown that health inequalities are at risk of worsening after the COVID-19 pandemic, as the pandemic has affected individuals in vulnerable situations more than individuals in more favourable social conditions. The effects of the pandemic were both direct (disease and death), but also indirect through changes in living conditions, health habits, and through reduced range of support and care opportunities in health care.(60, 61) The pandemic’s impact on health over time remains to be evaluated, but overall, this indicates that the risk of continued inequality remains.(62) Strengths and weaknesses A strength of this study was the coverage of the study population, where more than 94% of relevant individuals were included in the study. Reporting epidemiological caries data is mandatory in the remuneration system, contributing to the comprehensive coverage. However, there is a risk of bias, as 6-year-olds excluded from this study due to missing data may to a greater extent be children living in social vulnerability, as socially disadvantaged people are less likely to visit the dentist and are at greater risk of poorer oral health. This dropout may have affected the outcome of our study and underestimated the relationship between social and socioeconomic variables and caries.(14, 50) Despite extensive national registrys, at SCB there were missing values for several socioeconomic variables on the family level. Missing data could be unfortunate, since there is an increased risk children living in social vulnerability could be overrepresented in this group. This was avoided by using multiple imputation to compensate for missing values at the family level. However, no multiple imputation was performed on area level as the only variables with missing values were paternal (n=463) and maternal (n=498) age when having the first child, and this was due to no first-born children were born in the areas studied years. Socioeconomic variables can be strongly correlated with each other, which can cause multicollinearity that affects the results and make it difficult to distinguish the individual effects of the included variables in the analysis. To avoid multicollinearity in the present study, VIF analyses were performed, and if two variables were highly correlated the variable with the least association with caries was removed. The composition and limitations of the area may affect the results and a low number of inhabitants may have caused uncertainty in the results. Neither health nor socioeconomic conditions follow administrative boundaries, and as described, this heterogeneity within areas can hide unequal conditions between, for example, socioeconomic groups within cities. NYKO4 was chosen as the definition of smaller areas based on the assumption that smaller areas expose more of the socioeconomic differences in society compared to larger areas. NYKO4 has the advantage of areas being defined and managed by the municipalities, which are well familiar with the social conditions and are rather small to expose more of the socioeconomic disparities. Conclusions Identifying inequalities is important to make them visible and thereby provide the conditions to even them out. This study adds a longitudinal perspective on children’s oral health and the relationship between caries in children and socioeconomic conditions within families and areas.However, despite efforts directed to families and areas at greater risk of caries, and minor signs of improvement noted for children with low maternal level of education, the overall results indicate that socioeconomic variables on both family and area levels have continued to be associated with caries in 6-year-olds in Sweden. Associations were consistently stronger for severe caries experience than for moderate , and were gradually increasing, with higher levels of social or socioeconomic vulnerability. Multiple socioeconomic risk variables meant even greater likelihood of caries. For instance, the OR for severe caries for children with maternal age when first child was born <20 years, and with foreign maternal background was 6.0 compared to children with maternal age of 25-34 years and native maternal background. The results can be used to identify families with a higher caries risk in the individual risk assessment or to identify areas useful for targeted interventions. Future oral health strategy must be supportive of families in socially vulnerable contexts to even out health disparities and the persisting oral health inequalities indicate a different approach, targeting the social determinants of health, is needed. In addition, it is important to continue to monitor oral health based on socioeconomic conditions to ensure good and equal oral health. These persistent oral health disparities in caries risk follows children as they grow and affects both their oral and general health, cementing health inequalities. Declarations Ethics approval: The study received approval from the Ethical Review Board 201101 (No. 2020-05054). Before SCB retrieved and linked the socioeconomic information to the caries prevalence, they conducted an internal confidentiality and review process. At the area level, values for fewer than four inhabitants were randomised according to Statistics Sweden’s routine.

For the full table, see appendix 2a\u0026ndash;b. At the family level all variables but four displayed significant differences in proportions between 2010 and 2019 (table 1a), e.g., the proportions of children born in Sweden had decreased from 94% to 93%, and the proportion of children born outside Europe grew by 1.3 percentage points (pp). The proportions of children and parents with foreign migration backgrounds had increased among children from 17% to 23%, and for parents from 22% to 30%. For maternal age when child in study group, and for when first child was born, there was an increase in proportions of parents \u0026gt;35 years of age from 19% to 22%, from 6.3% to 7.5%, respectively; and a decrease of proportions of mothers aged 25\u0026ndash;34y from 67% to 63% from 62% to 61%.

The association between socioeconomic variables and caries prevalence was consistently stronger for severe caries than for moderate. For the variables, maternal age when the child in the study group was born, parental age when first child was born, maternal educational level, family type, number of persons per household, financial assistance, form of housing OR was significantly lower in 2019 than in 2010.

the association with caries are presented in Table 3, arranged by the variables contribution of explanation to the 2019s model. The goodness of fit: were McFadden=0.17 (2010), 0.13 (2019); Nagelkerke=0.28 (2010), 0.22 (2019). The variables that explained most of the association both years were maternal age upon having their first child, parental and child migration background, form of housing, paternal employment, maternal education, maternal age when the child in the study group was born, and financial assistance\u0026mdash;but with some variation in the proportion of explanation between the years. Financial assistance was included in the 2010 model but not in the 2019. For maternal educational level OR caries experience was significantly lower in 2019 than in 2010 (\u003cem\u003ep\u0026nbsp;\u003c/em\u003e\u0026le;0.01). Very young/young maternal age when the first child was born explained most of the association (35% in 2010 and 30% in 2019) both years. Children whose mothers had their first child before the age of 25 were more than twice as likely to suffer severe caries disease than children whose mothers were between 25 and 34 years when they had their first child. Children with multiple risk variables had an even higher likelihood of caries experience. For instance, the OR for severe caries for children with maternal age when first child was born \u0026lt;20 years and with foreign maternal background was 6.0 (2.6*2.3).\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe proportion of children and parents with foreign migration background had increased between 2010 and 2019 (Table 1a), and migration background remained one of the most important explanatory variables in the models, explaining the association between caries and socioeconomic variables in 2010 and 2019 (Table 3). Figure 1 present a comparison of the caries prevalence between 2010 and 2019 for children with foreign migration background and native migration background. The proportion of caries-free children with foreign migration background was unchanged between 2010 and 2019 (\u003cem\u003ep\u0026nbsp;\u003c/em\u003e=0.97), the proportion of caries-free among children with native migration background was 2pp lower in 2010 than in 2010 (\u003cem\u003ep\u0026nbsp;\u003c/em\u003e=0.13). The unadjusted OR for caries prevalence (dmft \u0026gt;0) for children with foreign migration backgrounds in relation to children with native migration backgrounds was 7.3 in 2010, and 6.7 in 2019.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the models (Table 3), OR for caries prevalence for children with low maternal level of education was significantly lower in 2019 than in 2010 in comparison to higher level of education. Figure 2 present the caries prevalence in relation to maternal level of education in 2010 respective to 2019 at the family level. The proportion of caries-free children with low maternal levels of education had increased from 44% in 2010 to 52% in 2019 (\u003cem\u003ep\u0026nbsp;\u003c/em\u003e\u0026lt;0.01). The proportion of caries-free children with higher maternal levels of education was 2pp lower in 2019 (83%) compared to 2010 (85%) (\u003cem\u003ep\u0026nbsp;\u003c/em\u003e=0.15). Hence, the difference in the proportion of caries-free children between children with the lowest and highest maternal level of education was 10pp lower in 2019 than in 2010, from 41 (85%-44%) to 31 percentage points (83%-52%). The unadjusted OR for children with low maternal education, in relation to children with high maternal education, was 7.38 in 2010 and decreased to 4.62 in 2019 (\u003cem\u003ep\u0026nbsp;\u003c/em\u003e\u0026lt;0.001).\u0026nbsp;\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eArea level\u0026nbsp;\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the univariable analysis at area level, all socioeconomic variables included in the study showed associations with the likelihood of caries prevalence in both 2010 and 2019 and the associations were stronger for severe caries than moderate (Table 4). However, for ethnicity or migration background (foreign), employment (proportion of unemployed), level of education (proportion with elementary or high-school education), family type (proportion of single mothers), (proportions of households with) financial assistance, or housing allowance, the OR for severe caries was lower in 2019 than in 2010. For paternal age when first child was born, (median) disposable income per consumption unit/ household, (proportion) of high-income households, the OR was less than 1 both years and had increased. Children growing up in areas with CNI \u0026gt;1 were significantly more likely (OR 5.98 y2010, OR 4.72 y2019) to suffer severe caries compared to children growing up in areas with CNI \u0026lt;1.

socioeconomic variables and the associated categories that explained most of the association with caries at the area level are presented in Table 5, arranged by the d variables contribution of explanation to the 2019 model. The goodness of fit were: McFadden=0.10 (2010), 0.08 (2019); Nagelkerke=0.17 (2010), 0.14 (2019). The variables that explained most of the association between caries and socioeconomic variables were the same in both 2010 and 2019, but with some variation in the proportion of model explanation. These were proportions with foreign background, proportions with low education, and average number of persons per household. Proportions with foreign background explained most of the association in both years (82% in 2010 and 52% in 2019). The OR for proportions with foreign backgrounds was significantly lower in 2019 than in 2010 (p \u0026lt;0.001), and the OR for the proportion with low education were significantly higher in 2019 than in 2010 (p \u0026lt;0.001). There was a positive correlation (R=0.62, p\u0026lt;0.001) between the average number of persons per household in the area and the proportion of residents owning their own house. In 2019, the OR for severe caries was 1.03 for the proportion with a foreign migrant background and the proportion with the highest level of education compulsory school (low education), which means that the odds increase by 1.03 for every pp with an increased proportion of residents with a foreign migration background or low education in the area. For example, for children growing up in an area with an increased proportion of inhabitants of 10pp with low education OR for severe caries was 1.34 (1.03^10), compared to an area with a lower proportion. If the proportion of inhabitants with foreign migration background also was 10pp higher, then OR was 1.81 (1.03^10*1.03^10).\u0026nbsp;\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere was a gradient of increased prevalence of caries for areas with an increased proportion of inhabitants with foreign migration background from the areas with the lowest proportion (\u0026lt;10%) to the areas with the highest proportion (\u0026ge;40%) of inhabitants with foreign backgrounds (Figure 3). Between 2010 and 2019, there was a decrease of caries-free children in the third group (20%\u0026ndash;29.9%), and an increase in the fourth group (30%\u0026ndash;39.9%). The proportion of caries-free children in the areas with the lowest proportions with foreign migration background was 85% in 2010 and 84% in 2019 (\u003cem\u003ep\u0026nbsp;\u003c/em\u003e=0.20), and 41% in 2010 and 46% (\u003cem\u003ep\u0026nbsp;\u003c/em\u003e=0.15) in 2019 in the areas with the highest proportion; hence the difference in caries prevalence between the areas was 6pp less in 2019 than in 2010. The unadjusted OR for caries experience in areas with the highest proportion with foreign migration background in comparison to areas with the least was 6.3 in 2019 compared to 8.3 in 2010 (p \u003cem\u003e=\u003c/em\u003e0.07).\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFigure 3.\u0026nbsp;Caries prevalence by residential area based on the proportion of inhabitants with foreign background\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c/em\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe gradient was also evident when analysing groups in areas with increased proportions of inhabitants with low education (Figure 4).

The variables explaining the association between caries and socioeconomic variables were largely the same within each level and partly the same between the levels studied years. Despite changes in associations between studied years, the associations with caries prevalence and socioeconomic variables remained significant both years. The overall results indicate that socioeconomic variables on both levels continued to be associated with caries in 6-year-olds and the associations were consistently stronger\u0026nbsp;for severe caries experience (dmft \u0026gt;3) than moderate (dmft 1-3\u003cem\u003e),\u003c/em\u003e gradually increasing with higher levels of socioeconomic vulnerability.\u0026nbsp;\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen adjusting for confounders in the multivariable analysis, the models at both levels contained several explanatory variables in the association with caries, and children having multiple risk variables had even higher likelihood of caries experience. At the family level, the explanatory socioeconomic variables were maternal age when the first child was born, maternal age when child in the study group was born, parental employment, migration background of both parents and children, type of housing, and financial assistance (2010 only); and at area level migration background, parental educational level and number of persons per household.\u0026nbsp;\u003cbr\u003e\u0026nbsp;The ORs in the models were reduced compared to the univariable analysis. The results illustrates the complex relationship between the different socioeconomic variables and health.(42)\u0026nbsp;\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the family level, maternal age when the first child was born explained most of the association for both years, and at the area level, mean parental age when having the first child was associated with caries in the univariable analysis. Maternal age at childbirth may not be a socioeconomic variable in and of itself, but is associated with maternal socioeconomic situation and health outcome in offspring as well as being a risk indicator for caries, as both our and previous studies have shown.(39, 43)\u0026nbsp;In our study, maternal age \u0026lt;25 of the first child was associated with a higher likelihood of caries in the child and the associations were even stronger for mothers having their first child \u0026lt;20 years of age. In addition, maternal age when having the child in the study group also showed an increased likelihood of severe caries if the mother\u0026apos;s age was \u0026lt;25 years, but also at \u0026gt;34 years at childbirth. This finding is supported by an earlier study from Sweden demonstrating a U-shaped association between caries in children and maternal age, where mothers \u0026lt;25 or \u0026gt;35 years at childbirth had an increased risk of caries in their children.(44)\u0026nbsp;The fact that the U-shape is not observed for the age at the first child may be because the number of children in the family is also a predictor for caries, as caries risk increases with higher birth order among siblings; perhaps because this means that more children need to share the same limited parental resources.(45, 46)\u0026nbsp;\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt the area level, migration background explained most of the relationship in both years, followed by the educational variable. At the family level, children\u0026apos;s and parents\u0026apos; migration backgrounds were associated with caries, as was maternal level of education. Our result is in line with an analysis performed by the National Board of Health and Welfare in Sweden of the oral health development in children of preschool age and the interaction between children\u0026apos;s oral health and their social and demographic background between 2011 and 2019.(47)\u0026nbsp;According to their analysis country of birth, education and income were the three factors most clearly associated with children\u0026apos;s oral health. Country of birth had the strongest connection; children whose parents were born abroad had almost three times the risk of suffering from caries compared to children of native-born parents.\u0026nbsp;\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt the area level, living in areas with an increased average\u0026nbsp;of number of persons per household\u0026nbsp;was associated with decreased likelihood of caries. At the family level, however, more than five people per household were associated with an increased likelihood of caries in the univariable analysis, which, as mentioned, previous studies also identified.(44, 45)\u0026nbsp;The relative inconsistency of this, and of other variables, between family and area levels, may be due to the heterogeneity within the areas. For example, in our study, areas with a higher average of number of persons per household also had an increased proportion of inhabitants owning their own house, which was associated with a reduced likelihood of caries in the univariable analysis. In areas with many houses, in addition to families with children, many elderly people also live alone in their houses. In socially disadvantaged areas, there is a large proportion of apartments, where, in addition to families, there are also many students and single households, which lowers the average number per household of the area. This heterogeneity within areas may be the reason why the results at area and individual levels diverges to some extent.\u0026nbsp;\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eComposite indices describing multiple socioeconomic conditions in an area have been argued to be more stable and robust.(26, 48)\u0026nbsp;In our study, the CNI was used as a composite socioeconomic index at the area level. CNI is a well-used composite index for resource allocation which takes into account the composition of the inhabitants in an area based on several constituent variables (proportions of inhabitants within the area aged +65 living alone, born abroad, unemployed, aged 16\u0026ndash;64 years, single parent with children \u0026lt;18, person who moved into the area).(20, 49)\u0026nbsp;In the univariable analysis, CNI stood out in terms of the likelihood of severe caries; however, when adding other variables, which were partly the ones that build up the CNI variable, CNI was not significant in the model.\u0026nbsp;\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe contextual social conditions in areas and the impact they have on the families living there\u0026mdash;for example on children\u0026rsquo;s oral health\u0026mdash;were highlighted in a recent study from the Netherlands.(50)\u0026nbsp;After adjusting for individual and neighborhood characteristics neighborhood\u0026nbsp;deprivation remained significantly associated with severe caries and low odds of visiting the dentist yearly in 6-years-olds. In the analysis of oral health development in children of preschool age made by the National Board of Health and Welfare in Sweden, however, no neighbourhood effects after adjusting for individual social factors were seen, suggesting family characteristics has greater impact than area on caries in 6-years-olds.\u0026nbsp;(47)\u0026nbsp;In our study,\u0026nbsp;based on goodness of fit,\u0026nbsp;the models on family level were better than the area level models at estimating caries prevalence.\u0026nbsp;However, the National Board of Health and Welfare in Sweden also noted that in general, more children with an increased risk of caries live in vulnerable areas, as individual socioeconomic conditions are linked to an increased risk for caries; therefore, targeting efforts to these areas is a way to reach children at a greater risk of caries. Area level socioeconomic status is useful for measuring geographical inequalities, for distributing and evaluating health preventive efforts and as a proxy for individual SES; for example, where individual data is lacking due to confidentiality.(51)\u0026nbsp;However, when using area level this way it is important to acknowledge the described heterogenicity within the areas and that the association between socioeconomic prerequisites and dental caries is at a population level, which is not the caries situation on the family level.(52)\u0026nbsp;\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the family level,\u0026nbsp;there was an\u0026nbsp;increased proportion of caries-free 6-years-olds with low level of maternal education\u0026nbsp;during the years studied. This improvement was not seen among the group of children with a foreign migration background.\u0026nbsp;It is likely that the group of children with foreign migration background have had fewer opportunities to take part in the preventive measures offered by the region, since they have lived in the region for a shorter time.\u0026nbsp;This improvement in oral health among children at potentially higher risk of tooth decay may indicate that the preventive measures offered by the region have reached children with a potentially higher risk of caries. However, during the same time period, there was an increased proportion of children with caries experience among children whose mothers\u0026rsquo; highest attained education level was high school. This finding and the gradient in health found in our study, as well as in previous research, indicate the importance of oral health efforts being universal, to all, but also proportional, gradually increased with increased risk of disease.(4)\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA repeated cross-sectional study comparing time trends in caries-prevalence for 15-year-old Danish adolescents concluded persisting associations between socioeconomic position and dental caries from 1995 up until 2013.(53)\u0026nbsp;During that period, there was a steep decline in caries prevalence for all social groups in Denmark and a decrease in absolute inequality as the difference in caries prevalence between the groups decreased in both groups improving in terms of caries prevalence. However, relative inequality between different social groups had increased as the difference in likelihood of caries disease (OR) had increased. In our study, there was no general reduction in the prevalence of caries between years studied\u0026mdash;rather the opposite. However, for maternal level of education at the family level, both absolute and relative inequalities had decreased, as the difference in the proportion of caries-free children and the likelihood of developing caries between children with the lowest and highest levels of maternal education had decreased. Despite these positive trends, no change in absolute or relative inequality (or the opposite) was observed for migration background at either level or for the educational variable at the area level. Furthermore, the association between caries prevalence in 6-year-olds and low level of education, migration background, and all the other variables included in the models (except financial assistance) continued to be significantly associated with caries at both levels during the period studied. The result is in accordance with the Lancet series on oral health, declaring persistent oral health inequalities disproportionately affect poorer and marginalised groups in society.(7, 54)\u0026nbsp;Furthermore, as caries in early childhood is a risk factor of poor oral health, continued caries disease and need for dental care as an adult, childhood caries can affect an individual throughout life and established inequalities in health that persist over time.(55, 56)\u0026nbsp;Oral health shares the same risk factors as other non-communicable diseases (NCD) closely linked to the social determinants of health\u0026mdash;for example, diabetes and obesity\u0026mdash;hence the development in caries prevalence in deciduous teeth may serve as a measurable indicator of these and for the development of health inequalities in society.(8, 12, 57, 58)\u0026nbsp;In the Lancet series,\u0026nbsp;Watt et al. argue that a fundamentally different approach than the current treatment-dominated approach is needed with upstream, midstream, and downstream policies and interventions targeting the underlying social determinants of health in joint action with the prevention of other NCDs.(54)\u0026nbsp;\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe\u0026nbsp;increase in caries prevalence among 6-year-olds between 2010 and 2019 observed at the family level in the present study was also observed nationwide.(23)\u0026nbsp;During the same period, the proportion of children and parents with foreign migration backgrounds had increased in our study. The proportion with caries experience in the groups with foreign respective native migrant background remained unchanged, but with a significantly larger proportion of 6-year-olds with caries experience in the group with a foreign migration background. As already described, caries prevalence is heavily skewed worldwide, ranged from 18.7%\u0026ndash;53.2% between different countries, and Sweden is among the countries with an average better oral health in the population.(8)\u0026nbsp;The increase in caries prevalence among 6-year-olds during the studied period can therefore partly be explained by the population with foreign migration background being larger in 2019 than in 2010. In the national in-depth analysis of oral health development in children up to 6 years of age, it was also assessed that the increased proportion of children with a migrant background could partly explain the increase in caries prevalence in 6-year-olds between 2013 and 2019.\u0026nbsp;(47)\u0026nbsp;\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSince Region \u0026Ouml;sterg\u0026ouml;tland is the fourth largest region in Sweden, with both rural and urban areas, and since regional epidemiological caries data follow the national development, the results are considered representative of the Swedish population and can also be generalised to other countries with similar conditions as, for example, Scandinavian countries with similar welfare systems.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSince this study was conducted, recent national data on caries prevalence has indicated that the negative trend in decrease of caries-free children seems to have broken after 2019. In 2021, the proportion of caries-free 6-year-olds was 75%.(23, 59)\u0026nbsp;However, national data and research have shown that health inequalities are at risk of worsening after the COVID-19 pandemic, as the pandemic has affected individuals in vulnerable situations more than individuals in more favourable social conditions. The effects of the pandemic were both direct (disease and death), but also indirect through changes in living conditions, health habits, and through reduced range of support and care opportunities in health care.(60, 61)\u0026nbsp;The pandemic\u0026rsquo;s impact on health over time remains to be evaluated, but overall, this indicates that the risk of continued inequality remains.(62)\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStrengths and weaknesses\u003c/strong\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA strength of this study was the coverage of the study population, where more than 94% of relevant individuals were included in the study. Reporting epidemiological caries data is mandatory in the remuneration system, contributing to the comprehensive coverage.\u0026nbsp;However, there is a risk of bias, as 6-year-olds excluded from this study due to missing data may to a greater extent be children living in social vulnerability, as socially disadvantaged people are less likely to visit the dentist and are at greater risk of poorer oral health. This dropout may have affected the outcome of our study and underestimated the relationship between social and socioeconomic variables and caries.(14, 50)\u0026nbsp;\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDespite extensive national registrys, at SCB there were missing values for several socioeconomic variables on the family level. Missing data could be unfortunate, since there is an increased risk children living in social vulnerability could be overrepresented in this group. This was avoided by using multiple imputation to compensate for missing values at the family level. However, no multiple imputation was performed on area level as the only variables with missing values were paternal (n=463) and maternal (n=498) age when having the first child, and this was due to no first-born children were born in the areas studied years.\u0026nbsp;\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSocioeconomic variables can be\u0026nbsp;strongly correlated with each other, which can cause multicollinearity that affects the results and make it difficult to distinguish the individual effects of the included variables in the analysis.\u0026nbsp;To avoid multicollinearity in the present study, VIF analyses were performed, and if two variables were highly correlated the variable with the least association with caries was removed.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe composition and limitations of the area may affect the results and a low number of inhabitants may have caused uncertainty in the results. Neither health nor socioeconomic conditions follow administrative boundaries, and as described, this heterogeneity within areas can hide unequal conditions between, for example, socioeconomic groups within cities. NYKO4 was chosen as the definition of smaller areas based on the assumption that smaller areas expose more of the socioeconomic differences in society compared to larger areas. NYKO4 has the advantage of areas being defined and managed by the municipalities, which are well familiar with the social conditions and are rather small to expose more of the socioeconomic disparities.\u003c/p\u003e"},{"header":"Conclusions","content":"\u003cp\u003eIdentifying inequalities is important to make them visible and thereby provide the conditions to even them out. This study adds a longitudinal perspective on children\u0026rsquo;s oral health and the relationship between caries in children and socioeconomic conditions within families and areas.However, despite efforts directed to families and areas at greater risk of caries, and minor signs of improvement\u0026nbsp;noted for children with low maternal level of education, the overall results indicate that socioeconomic variables on both family and area levels have continued to be associated with caries in 6-year-olds in Sweden. Associations were consistently stronger\u0026nbsp;for severe caries experience than for moderate\u003cem\u003e,\u003c/em\u003e and were gradually increasing, with higher levels of social or socioeconomic vulnerability. Multiple socioeconomic risk variables meant even greater likelihood of caries. For instance, the OR for severe caries for children with maternal age when first child was born \u0026lt;20 years, and with foreign maternal background was 6.0 compared to children with maternal age of 25-34 years and native maternal background. The results can be used to identify families with a higher caries risk in the individual risk assessment or to identify areas useful for targeted interventions. Future oral health strategy must be supportive of families in socially vulnerable contexts to even out health disparities and the persisting oral health inequalities indicate a different approach, targeting the social determinants of health, is needed. In addition, it is important to continue to monitor oral health based on socioeconomic conditions to ensure good and equal oral health. These persistent oral health disparities in caries risk follows children as they grow and affects both their oral and general health, cementing health inequalities.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c/p\u003e"},{"header":"Declarations","content":"\u003cp\u003eEthics approval:\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe study received approval from the Ethical Review Board 201101 (No. 2020-05054).

The aim was therefore to analyse the association between 6-year-olds´ caries prevalence and socioeconomic variables at family and residential area levels in 2010 and 2019 and the trends in these associations.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMethods\u003c/strong\u003e: The study design is an epidemiological registry-based, repeated cross-sectional study based on caries data (grouped as 0, 1–3 and \u0026gt;3 dmft) for the population of 6-year-olds in 2010 (n =4,408, 95% coverage) and 2019 (n =5,199, 94% coverage) in a Swedish region. Multiple socioeconomic variables for the children’s families and residential areas were retrieved from official registries. Multinomial logistic regression was performed at both levels to produce models for each level and studied year.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eResults:\u003c/strong\u003e The variables that explained most of the association between caries and socioeconomic variables were mainly the same over the years at both levels. At the family level, these were: maternal age when having their first child (explained most of the association in both years, at 30 and 35%, respectively); maternal age when having the child in the study group; parental employment; parental and child’s migration background; maternal educational level; form of housing; and financial assistance (only 2010). At the residential area level, these were: migration background (explained most of the association both years; 82 and 52 %, respectively), educational level and number of persons per household. The association between socioeconomic variables and caries was consistently stronger for severe caries (dmft \u0026gt;3) than moderate (dmft 1–3). Multiple socioeconomic risk variables meant even greater likelihood of caries.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eConclusion: \u003c/strong\u003eOver the studied years, variables related with socioeconomics vulnerability continued to be associated with caries in young children growing up under socially disadvantaged circumstances. Effective efforts for families living in socially vulnerable contexts are needed to achieve good and equal oral health, as is continued follow-up to evaluate whether the goal is reached.\u003c/p\u003e","manuscriptTitle":"Persistent oral health inequality in children—repeated cross-sectional studies in 2010 and 2019","msid":"","msnumber":"","nonDraftVersions":[{"code":1,"date":"2024-10-15 09:48:15","doi":"10.21203/rs.3.rs-4950240/v1","editorialEvents":[{"type":"communityComments","content":0},{"type":"decision","content":"Revision requested","date":"2024-10-08T07:24:14+00:00","index":"","fulltext":""},{"type":"editorInvitedReview","content":"","date":"2024-10-08T01:40:10+00:00","index":"hide","fulltext":""},{"type":"editorInvitedReview","content":"","date":"2024-10-03T03:54:38+00:00","index":"hide","fulltext":""},{"type":"editorInvitedReview","content":"","date":"2024-09-27T16:25:43+00:00","index":"hide","fulltext":""},{"type":"reviewerAgreed","content":"96966247030932202440856944071418316399","date":"2024-09-16T23:23:07+00:00","index":"hide","fulltext":""},{"type":"reviewerAgreed","content":"316072857375766784177821708615562181827","date":"2024-09-12T01:33:07+00:00","index":"hide","fulltext":""},{"type":"reviewerAgreed","content":"54741208620770574431559112332088746479","date":"2024-09-09T21:00:46+00:00","index":"hide","fulltext":""},{"type":"reviewersInvited","content":"","date":"2024-09-09T18:40:18+00:00","index":"","fulltext":""},{"type":"editorInvited","content":"","date":"2024-08-22T11:33:56+00:00","index":"","fulltext":""},{"type":"editorAssigned","content":"","date":"2024-08-22T01:22:42+00:00","index":"","fulltext":""},{"type":"checksComplete","content":"","date":"2024-08-22T01:22:29+00:00","index":"","fulltext":""},{"type":"submitted","content":"BMC Public Health","date":"2024-08-21T09:05:57+00:00","index":"","fulltext":""}],"status":"published","journal":{"display":true,"email":"[email protected]","identity":"bmc-public-health","isNatureJournal":false,"hasQc":true,"allowDirectSubmit":false,"externalIdentity":"pubh","sideBox":"Learn more about [BMC Public Health](http://bmcpublichealth.biomedcentral.com/)","snPcode":"","submissionUrl":"https://www.editorialmanager.com/pubh/default.aspx","title":"BMC Public Health","twitterHandle":"@BMC_series","acdcEnabled":true,"dfaEnabled":false,"editorialSystem":"em","reportingPortfolio":"BMC Series","inReviewEnabled":true,"inReviewRevisionsEnabled":true}}],"origin":"","ownerIdentity":"2654d6df-e2a8-4b54-ab89-363d78fc7afa","owner":[],"postedDate":"October 15th, 2024","published":true,"recentEditorialEvents":[],"rejectedJournal":[],"revision":"","amendment":"","status":"published-in-journal","subjectAreas":[],"tags":[],"updatedAt":"2024-12-23T16:02:51+00:00","versionOfRecord":{"articleIdentity":"rs-4950240","link":"https://doi.org/10.1186/s12889-024-20905-y","journal":{"identity":"bmc-public-health","isVorOnly":false,"title":"BMC Public Health"},"publishedOn":"2024-12-18 15:57:48","publishedOnDateReadable":"December 18th, 2024"},"versionCreatedAt":"2024-10-15 09:48:15","video":"","vorDoi":"10.1186/s12889-024-20905-y","vorDoiUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1186/s12889-024-20905-y","workflowStages":[]},"version":"v1","identity":"rs-4950240","journalConfig":"researchsquare"},"__N_SSP":true},"page":"/article/[identity]/[[...version]]","query":{"redirect":"/article/rs-4950240","identity":"rs-4950240","version":["v1"]},"buildId":"qtupq5eGEP_6zYnWcrvyt","isFallback":false,"isExperimentalCompile":false,"dynamicIds":[84888],"gssp":true,"scriptLoader":[]}
