What this Trial Is About
This observational, cross-sectional study aims to evaluate the current caries risk profiles of children who underwent dental treatment under general anesthesia (GA) for early childhood caries (ECC) between 2015 and 2020 at Aydın Adnan Menderes University, Faculty of Dentistry. A minimum of 44 systemically healthy children will be included. Caries risk will be assessed using the Cariogram model, incorporating clinical parameters (DMFT/dmft, Plaque Index, Gingival Index, probing depth), salivary factors (stimulated flow rate, buffer capacity), and standardized questionnaires covering diet, fluoride exposure, socioeconomic status, and dental visit history. Data will be collected in a single visit, analyzed using SPSS. The study aims to provide scientific evidence for long-term preventive strategies and oral health policies targeting high-risk pediatric populations treated under GA for ECC.
