Abstract

Dental caries is a disease which is affected by many factors, mainly bacteria, and eventually leads to the dissolution and damage of the hard tissue of the teeth. Dental caries has become one of the most common diseases affecting children worldwide, and it is on the rise, seriously endangering childrens oral, general and mental health. Traditional clinical treatment methods mainly use filler therapy and root canal therapy, but these are invasive and dependent on patients compliance. There are many therapies that are less invasive and more suitable for children being researched and applied clinically. It is worth noting that for caries, early prevention is more important and effective than late treatment. In recent years, the researches on the pathogenesis and influencing factors of dental caries have also made some progress. This review focuses on the causes, treatment and prevention of dental caries in children, in order to promote the updating of research trends on dental caries in children and to help develop an individualized oral health plan for children.
