The caries-statistical date from 1.500 subjects aged between 7 and 16 years showed that the caries incidence in children and adolescents who had received complete dental treatment was by 31% lower, after two years, than that in children and adolescents who had not received complete dental treatment. Thus, the restorative functions of single fillings are completed by a complex preventive aspect.
