Results. 100% of the girls showed one or more of an impacted performance. The oral problem that most affects is bad breath followed by sensitive teeth and decayed teeth, which have been annoying at the time of eating or cleaning the mouth. 73.3% of schoolchildren have 1 to 4   seals. 36.7% of girls are free of tooth decay. One of the 90 participants has lost a permanent dental piece. The difference of girls who had or did not decay only varies at the time of rest and in school work.
