Abstract

To date, it is inevitable; according to the available epidemiological data; that the prevalence of dental caries is rapidly increasing. In this cross- sectional study, a survey was conducted on 3778 secondary school students aged 15-18 years old. The overall prevalence of dental caries was determined (53.8%); and a comparison was set between male and female candidates regarding the prevalence of caries where no statistical significance was reported.
