[Caries risk in youth from sociopsychological viewpoint].
Attitudes and behavioural patterns to dental health were recorded by standardized questionings of 900 juveniles aged between 12 and 16 years. Health-related behaviour corresponds with demographic and sociopsychological factors. Education within the family is very important for the development of a healthy way of life. Experiences of juveniles with dental care essentially determine their curative and preventive compliance. Juveniles with a negative attitude towards dental health require as a potential caries risk group special attention in health advising and dental care.
