BACKGROUND
Despite credible scientific advances and the fact that it is preventable, dental caries continues to be a major public health problem in developing countries like India. The first step toward disease prevention at community level is assessment of the disease activity.
AIM
Hence this study was conducted to evaluate the change in dental caries status over 2 years in children of Panchkula, Haryana.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
207 school children having mixed dentition (age 7-8 years) and 103 children (age 12-13 years) were assessed for change in their dmf/DMF status over 2 years.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION
Results revealed that 81% of 7-8-year-old children and 83 % 12-13-year-olds had caries. There was a statistically significant increase in DMFT score of children over 2 years; thus necessitating implementation of rigorous preventive strategies at community level.
背景
尽管有可靠的科学进展，而且龋齿是可预防的，但在印度等发展中国家，龋齿仍然是一个主要的公共卫生问题。在社区层面预防疾病的第一步是评估疾病活动情况。
目的
因此，本研究旨在评估哈里亚纳邦潘切库拉地区儿童在两年内龋齿状况的变化。
材料与方法
对207名处于混合牙列期（7 - 8岁）的学童和103名儿童（12 - 13岁）进行评估，观察他们在两年内dmf/DMF状况的变化。
结果与结论
结果显示，7 - 8岁儿童中有81%、12 - 13岁儿童中有83%患有龋齿。儿童的DMFT评分在两年内有统计学意义的增加；因此有必要在社区层面实施严格的预防策略。
