Abstract

Early childhood caries (ECC) is defined as the presence of 1 or more decayed, missing or filled tooth surfaces in any primary tooth in a child 71 month or younger. It is the most common chronic disease in young children and may develop as soon as teeth erupt, and cavities may be visible as early as 10 months of age.
