Abstract: 

This epidemiological cross-sectional study of the oral health status of the child population of both genders enrolled in Municipal Schools Early Childhood Education; José Aidar, Neil Calil, September 7, located in New Granada in the State of São Paulo. It was intended to assess the oral health, measuring the condition of the affected or not dental caries structures arising directly or indirectly from the condition of hygiene, diet, quantity and quality of health care and services provided to the population. This study followed the methodology recommended by the World Health Organization (WHO) to conduct epidemiological studies, using the DMFT index. The form used is a simplified form to the LEC (Epidemiological Survey of Caries). One may observe that the children of this community are at risk of tooth decay due to the frequency of cariogenic food, a lack of education about oral hygiene and poor access to care provided by the health service in the region. According to the results as a basis to guide planning and demand preventive and curative oral health services, should be encouraged to care and health care of this population.
