简要总结
Dental caries is a multi- factorial disease that primarily results due to the alteration in physiological equilibrium between tooth minerals and oral microbial biofilms. Oral Health Related Quality of Life (OHRQoL) is an integral part of general health and wellbeing and has been recognized by WHO as an important segment of Global Oral Health Programme. Dental caries has been associated with a negative impact on OHRQol however, research in this field, especially the Indian subcontinent is scanty, hence the need of this investigation. In our study we plan to assess dental caries prevalence using DMFT index in six- to thirteen-year-old children. To assess the OHRQoL using COHIP in six- to thirteen-year-old children. To assess the association between dental caries status with OHRQoL in six- to thirteen-year-old children.
