There is an increasing awareness worldwide that individual caries prevention programmes for children are particularly important. As a consequence numerous countries have published their own guidelines with recommendations regarding effective preventive strategies. The pertinence of individual preventive programmes for children is obvious: On one hand the primary teeth have a decisive impact on the development of the jaw. On the other hand the main goal of maintaining an individual’s natural dentition for a lifetime is reached only if the patient shows compliance, implements the required oral hygiene practices at home and visits the dentist on a regular basis.
