 note = {application/pdf, Though the relationship between nursing method and dental caries has been discussed by many researchers, definite conclusions are still not fully able to be made. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship among timing of weaning, nursing method before weaning and the incidence of dental caries. In the present study, the correlation between answers from an actual nursing methods questionnaire survey and the severity of dental caries was analyzed. However, the materials were devided into two groups. The high caries severity index group (82.7%) consisted of 93 children with severe dental caries who were subjected to intensive dental treatment under general anesthesia at Matsumoto Dental College. Another group of 91 children (caries severity index, 27.4%) who live in Asahi Village were selected as a control group. The following results were obtained: 1. Nursing method. Compared with the control group, the high caries severity index group tended to show a high percentage of breast-feeding, on the contrary, there was no difference between the percentage of artificial milk nursing between the two groups. 2. Weaning. In terms of mean month-age of weaning, the high caries severity index group tended to be later than the control group. 3. Weaning of mother's milk 55.1% of the high caries severity index group were not yet weaned until 16 months of age, on the contrary, only 3% of the control group were not weaned until 16 months of age. 4. Regularity of nursing. The high caries severity index group tended to nurse more irregularly than the control group.},
