    Abstract:
    A randomized stratified sample of children 3 to 12 years of age has been examined, DMFT, CPITN, soft deposits and malocclusion have been analyzed. The prevalence of caries, periodontal involvement and malocclusion has been observed to be rather high, thus requiring the organizing of detailed preventive programs to reach the W H O target set for the year 2000.
