Abstract
The prevalence of tetracycline-stained teeth was studied in 965 5-year-olds attending compulsory kindergarten in West Jerusalem in 1971. In addition, demographic data were collected to determine the socioeconomic status of the children's families. The prevalence of children with stained teeth was 8.0%, males being affected twice as often as females. The prevalence of staining was significantly higher in children of lower socioeconomic status.Keywords
