Oral health holds the key to general health in many aspects. However, it is one component about which there is very little awareness and little clear understanding of the implications. In view of the adverse effects of poor oral health, it is important to take preventive measures and create the required services. To achieve this purpose a baseline data is necessary to be created so that such data will help us plan and formulate programmes and implement them to improve oral health of the community. Indian sub continent having 970 million population with substantial proportion of children, should concentrate to improve the dental health of the future generation in younger age, with the help of the most resourceful health-man power, the school teachers in turn helping them to maintain their own. Thus the present study undertaken.
