Cariogram is a way to illustrate interactions between caries, or tooth cavity, related factors. It demonstrates the caries risk graphically and shows the risk for developing new caries in the future and also chances to avoid new caries in the near future. [1] It helps to understand the multifactorial aspects of dental caries.
Atraumatic restorative treatment (ART) [1] is a method for cleaning out tooth decay (dental caries) from teeth using only hand instruments (dental hatchet and spoon-excavator) and placing a filling. It does not use rotary dental instruments (dental drills) to prepare the tooth and can be performed in settings with no access to dental equipment.

Glass ionomer cement is primarily used in the prevention of dental caries. This dental material has good adhesive bond properties to tooth structure, [8] allowing it to form a tight seal between the internal structures of the tooth and the surrounding environment. Dental caries are caused by bacterial production of acid during their metabolic ...
Early childhood caries (ECC) is a multifactorial disease, with risk factors including but not limited to, cariogenic bacteria, diet practices and socioeconomic factors. [6] Deciduous teeth begin to erupt at 6 months of age, once visible in the oral cavity they are susceptible to tooth decay or dental caries. [1]

In 2000, Fedi, et al. modified Glickman's classification to include two degrees of a grade II furcation defect: [4] Grade II degree I - exists when furcal bone loss possesses a vertical component of >1 but <3mm. Grade II degree II - exists when furcal bone loss possesses a vertical component of >3mm, but still does not communicate through-and ...
The PRECEDE framework was first developed and introduced in the 1970s by Green and colleagues. [1] [2] [3] [5] [7] PRECEDE is based on the premise that, just as a medical diagnosis precedes a treatment plan, an educational diagnosis of the problem is very essential before developing and implementing the intervention plan.
