Snacking behaviors and early childhood caries severity among Myanmar preschool children: a cross-sectional study.
Among Myanmar preschool children, frequent snacking (≥3 times daily) and irregular snack timing were associated with greater early childhood caries severity, while snack type itself showed no significant relationship. The combination of high frequency with irregular timing showed the strongest association with caries severity.
