Dental pathologies in rural medieaval populations from continental Croatia
The paper presents the results of an analysis of frequency and distribution of caries, ante-mortem tooth loss (AMTL) and abscesses in mediaeval rural populations (11th to 16th centuries) from continental Croatia. The presented data (high frequency of caries, similar caries frequencies between the sexes, significantly higher frequency of AMTL in females) suggests nutrition based on agricultural products rich in carbohydrates, no significant difference in the manner and type of diet between males and females, use of teeth as tools in older females, and a very low level of oral hygiene.
