Caries in first permanent molars and diet/oral habits in Egyptian children
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study looks at how diet and oral habits (like brushing, eating sweets) affect the first permanent molars (the big back teeth that come in around age 6) in Egyptian children. It may help find ways to prevent cavities and keep kids' teeth healthy.
