Dental examinations including posterior bite-wing radiographs were given 264 school children from the Ogden, Utah, area who were equally divided between those who were normal and those having rheumatic fever. Differences between the two groups of children aged 5 to 9 or 10 to 19 years were not significant for the number of DMF and DEF teeth, DMF and DEF surfaces, and cavities of the permanent or deciduous teeth.
The caries experience of all of the Ogden children was relatively high when compared with children in other studies in which the same or lower rates of caries experience were reported.
