[Comparative studies on the incidence of caries in 10-year-old schoolchildren from Kiel and Landskrona (Sweden)].

Comparative clinical studies on the caries incidence of 10-year-old school children in Kiel and Landskrona (Sweden) showed after statistical evaluation that the Landskrona children had lesser DF surfaces than the Kiel children. A comparison of incidence broken up into separate D and F surfaces showed that the Kiel children had more D surfaces, while the children of Landskrona had more F surfaces. The connection between caries incidence and prophylactic measures is discussed.

[The awareness of oral hygiene in Swedish and German school children].

Within the framework of an epidemiological survey of the dental and periodontal conditions in Swedish and German school children born in 1965, the children were asked to answer ten questions regarding oral hygiene in a questionnaire. When comparing the ten answers regarding the consciousness of oral hygiene, significant differences in knowledge were observed with the exception of information given with respect to their own toothbrush. This difference may be interpreted to the effect that the Swedish children are better aware of the importance of oral hygiene than the German children.
