Abstract:
A good oral health care is directly related to the general
health of the entire body. The dental diseases are most
common and widespread diseases around the world.
But it is challenging for developing countries. One of the
most common prevailing conditions is dental caries. It
is progressive and cumulative in nature and becomes
more complex with the advancing age. It can affect
children’s quality of life.1 The low socioeconomic status
factor in developing countries affects dental caries more
than the developed countries.2 The oral health status is
observed differently in different social classes as well as
in gender and the educational level of the parents.3 The
prevalence of dental caries among school going children
of different social class showed higher predilection of
dental caries in government school children than
private.3
