ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is designed to compare two methods for checking dental health, specifically looking at tooth decay (or caries) in young children in Egypt. Researchers want to see which method works better for finding tooth decay and how long each method takes. This study focuses on children aged 3 to 6 years old, and the results could help improve dental care for kids both locally and around the world.

To participate in this trial, children must be between 3 and 6 years old and have no medical conditions that would affect their dental health. Unfortunately, children who are uncooperative or have difficulties understanding the study will not be included. If a parent agrees to participate, their child will undergo a simple dental assessment using the two different methods being studied. This is an important opportunity to contribute to better understanding and improving children's dental health.
