[Prevention of caries in children].
There is a stagnation in the previously ongoing improvement of the dental health of children. Therefore, an evaluation of the guidelines for dental care is necessary. Prevention should be based on an improvement of home care. It is advised to use a dentifrice with 500 to 750 ppm fluoride till the age of five. Professional applications in the dental office are most beneficial when early signs of decay are observed. Indications for professional applications are proposed.
