[Dental caries in a group of Carnia children. Epidemiological study]

The purpose of the research is to analyse the prevalence of dental caries of children living in Carnia divided into 2 groups, one of which was treated with fluoride tablets since the first months of life. In the considered area there is a reduction of dental caries even if the problem remains a major one. The prevention programme, based on collaboration with relatives from the first months of their babies, can be considered a valid operative support.
