Abstract

Dental caries is a problem that often occurs in underage children. The majority of children usually eat sweet foods that contain lots of sugar such as chocolate, candy and donuts. Improper tooth brushing habits also have a big impact on the occurrence of dental caries. They don't understand how to regulate consumption of sweet foods while maintaining healthy teeth. It is important to remember that maintaining healthy teeth is very important and it is recommended to understand this from an early age. The problem of cavities and dental caries is a dental health problem that is experienced by most people throughout the world. Dental caries is caused by several factors, one of which is environmental factors and dental health care. Dental disease usually occurs in underage children. They don't understand the importance of maintaining healthy teeth. Children become very vulnerable to malnutrition because they experience aching teeth that reduce their appetite. Dental diseases like this have a big impact on children's performance at school, where they become increasingly unfocused because they are distracted by the pain they feel. Data collection uses the library study method by searching for data from reading results and collecting various references from scientific works, articles and journals.Dental caries is a problem that often occurs in underage children.
