Sažetak
Dental caries is a global health problem and is considered the most common infectious disease in adults that we are exposed to during our lifetime. The current approach to caries prevention includes assessment of individual caries risk, clinical examination, diagnostics and non- or minimally invasive treatment. Various cariostatic agents are used that are even more effective than previously used methods. Silver diamine fluoride, chlorhexidine, xylitol, casein phosphopeptide and amorphous calcium phosphate and probiotics are some of the cariostatic agents that are effective in preventing caries. Preventive measures such as educating parents and children about the importance of good oral hygiene are equally important for oral health.
