Tiivistelmä
The aim Of this study was to measure the quality of children's dental healthcare from the oral health records of 10-year-olds and from the numbers of children in Rick groups. The focus was on dental healthcare and markers of dental records. A representative sample of women expecting their first Chad was selected in southwestern Finland. Children's dental health, dmft/DMFT = 0, was recorded in 45% of cases with a mean DMFT index of 0.5, and dmft/DMFT greater than or equal to 5 in 15% of the children. Late-appearing caries (caries-free at the age of 5 years but caries-existing thereafter) was present in 31% (258/828) of the children. The focus on restorative dental healthcare was appropriate. The use of sweets was documented in 23% of cases and tooth-brushing in 28%. A total of 26% of the children had gingivitis in every segment. The study illustrates that only one of the targets has been My reached.
