摘要
295 5-yr-old children were examined in Mallow, a non-fluoridated town in North Cork to ascertain the dental status of children commencing first level education. The results were compared with those found in Baja, Hungary and in Barnsley, England. The def in Mallow was found to be 5.15 and the Met Need Index 14%. The authors suggest that the programs of dental care should be re-examined in the light of these findings and more emphasis placed on the prevention and treatment of caries at an earlier age.
