Brief description This research program is expected to contribute to filling significant gaps in the understanding of factors determining the oral health of Australian preschool children. The inter-relationship between factors potentially important for child oral health and their effect on oral health will be evaluated. The findings will help to re-evaluate the effectiveness and safety of oral health preventive programs used for children and to explain inequality in oral health of children.
