Abstract: OBJECTIVE: To investigate the prevalence of dental caries of 4-year-old children in Miyun District of Beijing by international caries detection and assessment system (ICDAS), to detect the caries activity Cariostat value and to analyze the correlation between the Cariostat value and dental caries. METHODS: fs among high Cariostat scores group (2.0-3.0), medium Cariostat scores group (1.5) and low Cariostat scores group (0-1.0) were compared. The distributions of incipient caries in different Cariostat scores groups were compared among children with incipient caries only. RESULTS: >0.05). CONCLUSION: ICDAS can detect early enamel demineralization of deciduous teeth in children. The prevalence of dental caries among 815 4-year-old children in Miyun District of Beijing is more serious, and incipient caries is widely distributed in children. Cariostat value reflects the status of cavi-tated caries and has no correlation with the distribution of incipient caries. Therefore, the combined application of ICDAS and Cariostat caries activity detection method is helpful for the detection of incipient caries and screening of caries high-risk children, which has great significance for the comprehensive ma-nagement of caries in children and the formulation of early preventive measures.
