Early childhood caries is probably one of the most serious and costly health disorders in young children due to its high incidence and impact on quality of life.

The monograph Dental Caries in Early Childhood provides comprehensive information on this topic and covers the entire issue of caries in primary teeth - from their development to differences in the morphology of primary and permanent teeth, prevention and therapy of caries, to endodontic treatment and replacement of lost teeth during dental rehabilitation.
