Dental caries is the most prevalent infectious disease affecting children globally. Children of all races, castes, and creeds are impacted. Children are more susceptible to dental caries due to refined diets and poor oral hygiene. Thorough clinical assessment and diagnosis of dental caries are essential components of an all-encompassing treatment strategy. The dentition's developmental stage, the patient's oral hygiene, the caries-risk assessment, the likelihood of timely recall from the parents, and the child's cooperation during treatment are all important considerations. Dental technology is entering a new era as a result of significant advances in restorative science.
