Abstract

There is no exception to this rule when it comes to health-related behaviours, including oral health. An important part of a child's overall well-being is the state of his or her mouth, teeth, and gums. Caries in the teeth is a common oral health issue that affects nearly everyone. Dental caries is on the rise in many developing countries. There are many diseases of the mouth, but dental caries is among the most serious and common. Cariogenic bacteria and fermentable dietary carbohydrates on the tooth surface interact over time to cause this infectious oral disease, which is easily spread from person to person. Caries affects nearly 90% of children, despite the fact that it can occur in both children and adults. "The presence of one or more decayed, missing (due to caries), or filled tooth surfaces in any primary tooth in a preschool-age child between the ages of birth and 71 months" is what is meant by "early childhood caries."
