    Area of Science:

    • Public Health
    • Pediatric Dentistry

    Context:

    • Dental caries prevention programs for schoolchildren.
    • Long-term (20+ years) practical experience in program implementation.
    • Community and cantonal level interventions.

    Purpose:

    • To present effective, low-cost strategies for preventing dental caries in children.
    • To advocate for the selection and implementation of suitable preventive programs.
    • To encourage broader community participation in oral health initiatives.

    Summary:

    • Dental caries prevention is highly feasible using established programs.
