We compared the oral health status of the schoolchildren in two primary schools and one junior high school and of all the preschool children of HIRAIZUMI-cho in IWATE prefecture after 4-year dental health activities. (1978-1981) Our activities were dental health education, topical application of Ag (NH3) 2F, the filling of earlv carious lesions in permanent teeth, and the extraction of advanced carious teeth. In preschool children, the mean dmft, the number of advanced carious teeth per person, and the number of children with advanced carious teeth decreased considerably. On the other hand, in school children, the caries prevalence rate, the mean DMFT, showed no marked difference, but the restoration rate was significantly higher due to the early treatment. We studied the dental caries of upper anterior teeth by tooth surface in schoolchildren from the 4th grade of primary school to the 3rd grade of junior high school. Caries prevention was most effective on the labial surface, and secondly on the proximal surface, and pit caries on the lingual surface was the most difficult to prevent. Dental plaque on the tooth surfaces and gingivitis were also decreased.
