Title
Dental decay on the decrease.
Abstract
The article reports on the results of the 2003 Children's Dental Health Survey, published by the Office for National Statistics in Great Britain. The survey showed that dental decay in children's permanent teeth has decreased to its lowest recorded level. The survey also showed that 62 percent of 12-year-olds and 50 percent of 15-year-olds are free from any decay experience in the permanent teeth.
