摘要
GDPs seem to be providing appropriate preventive care consistent with the aetiological causes of dental disease.Preventive care appears to be provided as an alternative to restorative care for some carious primary teeth.Preventive care in these high-risk children appears to be reactive to disease progression and is not particularly effective.There were widespread differences in the provision of preventive care amongst GDPs, this and the concerns about effectiveness point to a need for an evidence based and adequately funded prevention programme for GDPs to apply in their practices.
