A FAMILY CASE STUDY OF A CHILD WITH DENTAL CARIES
INTRODUCTION
Oral health according toward health organization is a state of complete normality and functional efficiency of the teeth and supporting structures and also the surrounding parts of the oral cavity and of the various maxillofacial complexes. This encompasses the physical, social and psychological well being of an individual.
A good oral hygiene is essential for the well being of an individual. A charming smile which shows perfect set of natural well arranged teeth supported by healthy looking gum, does not only indicate a perfect individual personal appearance, it may be a determining factor for success in business and to thrive in today’s complex society.
Poor oral health can interfere with building self esteem and other type of psychological development, (thus) a neglected mouth displaying a stained grubby set of teeth, is not only unimpressive but is one of the causes of ill health and complications.
