Abstract
(en) Quantitative defects of the enamel are considered risk factors for caries development at cavitated level. Since caries risk assessment and control should be implemented as early as possible in order to prevent operative treatment, it seems interesting to investigate the relationship between enamel defects and caries development also in stages of progression which precede cavitation. The impact of enamel defects on early caries development was investigated in a cohort of Brazilian preschool children. […]
