Abstrakt: The results of an evaluation of the W.H.O. recommendations for the assessment of dental caries confirmed that the method and the criteria are satisfactory. Attention is drawn to the limitations of df and DMF indices for predicting requirements for dental treatment, and the efficacy of a simple system for collecting information on requirements for care is described.
