The main problem of dental and oral health in children is dental caries. Both primary and permanent teeth have a risk of caries, but the decay process of primary teeth spreads more rapidly, extends and is more severe than permanent teeth.

This type of research is analytic with cross sectional design. The population in this study were all children aged 4 5 years and parents in Kuok Village with a sample of 406 people.
