Early Childhood Caries: Comprehensive Action for the Quality of Life of Children
View through CrossRef
Early caries is often spotted in early childhood and is known as Early Childhood Caries (ECC). In children under 3 years of age, signs of fine surface caries are indicative of Severe Early Childhood Caries (S-ECC). Some of the prevention of early childhood caries include the Readiness Assessment of Parents concerning Infant Dental Decay (RAPIDD) scale, Community-Based Education, prevention of transmission of cariogenic bacteria, Home Professional and Home Prevention Approach, Barriers in Early Childhood Caries, and operative dentistry. Detecting caries at the practicing stage is essential to prevent significant tooth decay through some methods, such as Caries Risk Assessment, Digital Imaging Fiberoptic Translumination, DIAGNOcam, and other diagnostic aids in dental caries. ECC treatment must lead to essential results in the restoration of proper dental shape, function, and esthetics, and must be requisite with the physiological integrity of the teeth in a harmonious relationship through operative dentistry, which is a dynamic combination of ever-evolving ingredients and new techniques.
