Abstract
Caries experience in adults who used mass dental health check-ups was compared to the general health status of the subjects obtained by questionnaires. For those who were treated currently by a physician, the mean number of missing teeth and DMFT in all the age groups as a whole and the mean number of missing teeth in 20-39 year olds were higher than for the subjects who were not treated. The mean index of dental decay and DMFT in aged 20-39 year old were higher for those who claimed to have ever had a serious disease or surgical operation than for other subjects
