In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

This multicenter longitudinal interventional study aims to evaluate minimally invasive protocols for the prevention and control of dental caries in Brazilian schoolchildren under routine public health conditions. In the first phase, 50,000 children aged 6 to 12 years from public schools in five Brazilian cities will undergo dental screening using ICDAS criteria and receive preventive and educational oral health measures. In the longitudinal treatment phase, 2,500 children diagnosed with active carious lesions will be managed according to ICDAS-based minimally invasive treatment protocols. Participants will be followed every three months for up to 24 months.
