Home-based oral care is now recognized as the cornerstone of pediatric dentistry, supported by strong evidence linking daily parental guidance with reduced incidence of early childhood caries (ECC) and other preventable conditions.

Dental Article 🔽 Silver Diamine Fluoride in Pediatric Dentistry: Clinical Guide 2025 ... Its topical application allows the arrest of carious lesions without the need for invasive procedures, making it especially useful in children with high caries risk, behavioral challenges, or limited access to dental care.

Poor dietary habits, prolonged bottle feeding, and bacterial transmission from caregivers remain major risk factors for ECC, which continues to be one of the most prevalent childhood diseases worldwide.

In infants, oral conditions such as candidiasis can compromise comfort and feeding, while in older children, early signs like white spot lesions or molar-incisor hypomineralization (MIH) may indicate a higher susceptibility to caries progression if not addressed promptly. Preventive strategies at home—including proper toothbrushing with fluoride toothpaste, sugar control, and regular monitoring by parents—are crucial in stopping lesions at their earliest stage.
