AB  - OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to correlate the caries-related variables 
      of special needs patients to the incidence of new caries. MATERIALS AND METHODS: 
      Data for socio-demographic information and dental and general health status were 
      obtained from 110 patients treated under general anesthesia because of their 
      insufficient co-operation. The Cariogram program was used for risk assessment and 
      other caries-related variables were also analyzed. Within a defined follow-up 
      period (16.3 +/- 9.5 months), 64 patients received dental examinations to assess 
      newly developed caries. RESULTS: At baseline, the mean (SD) values of the DMFT 
      (decayed, missing and filled teeth) and DT (decayed teeth) for the total patients 
      were 9.2 (6.5) and 5.8 (5.3), respectively. During the follow-up period, new 
      caries occurred in 48.4% of the patients and the mean value (SD) of the increased 
      DMFT (iDMFT) was 2.1 (4.2). The patients with a higher increment of caries (iDMFT 
      >/=3) showed significantly different caries risk profiles compared to the other 
      patients (iDMFT <2) (p < 0.05). Close correlations existed between the caries 
      increment and several caries-related variables; baseline DMFT, insufficient 
      self-tooth-brushing and malocclusion were greatly associated with new caries 
      development. CONCLUSIONS: Caries risk assessment could predict the incidence of 
      future caries in hospital-based dentistry. Past caries experience and inadequate 
      oral hygiene maintenance were largely related to caries development in special 
      needs patients.
