Abstract
Objectives
Point out the two main factors of caries prevention nowadays: a not cariogenic diet and fluoride.
Materials and methods
A literature revision was performed using Pubmed and Medline databases and the Cochrane Library.
Results and conclusions
To prevent tooth decay effectively the collaboration with patient is necessary. The patient is required to make life-styles modifications and adopt good habits as far as nutrition and hygiene are concerned. Preventive evidence-based strategies tailored to the caries risk status of each patient must be implemented.
