Abstract
A 10% sample (684) of boys and girls in the final year of state primary schools in three different areas of the city of Athens were examined. Their mean age was 11 yr 7 months and a mean DMFT of 2.41 was found. The majority of children claimed to be regular dental attenders. When the dental data from the three different socio-economic areas of the city were analysed independently, differences in the caries experience were noted. This investigation has reported lower DMFT scores than other Greek studies.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
