Abstract
The results of a cross-sectional study of caries prevalence in 22,112 children age 6 to 14 years in Rostock Country are classified as moderate to high according to WHO criterions. Territorial differences in the caries prevalence have a strong connection to the degree of realisation of preventive measures. Over a control period of 20 years the average caries experience in children showed only little changes, a general caries decline couldn't be watched.
