title: [Influence of two prophylaxis programs on the gingival status of children].
abstract: Two groups of schoolchildren from the city of Zurich and the community of Wallisellen were compared for gingival health and disease by the Sulcus Bleeding Index. The children of Wallisellen who received more intensive prophylactic program than the Zurich schoolchildren showed better gingival health in every age group. More prophylactic education and more frequent instructions for Zurich schoolchildren are indicated.
