dc.description.abstractKnowledge about the etiopathogenesis of dental caries has advanced a great deal in recent decades. Nevertheless, the disease remains a great challenge for public health. It is necessary to continue the research and implement new preventive strategies, especially in the most vulnerable communities, taking into account the sociodemographic factors that influence the onset of the disease. Currently, the individual preventive strategy is not effective to deal with caries inequalities. Dental caries experience has decreased in recent decades with the implementation of the PADI program and the fluoridation of waters in the region of the Basque Country, being among the best in Europe. However, lower social classes still have much higher caries experience than the rest. That is why it is very important that, if the Basque Government finally stops the fluoridation of water, methodologically rigorous studies are carried out to evaluate the impact of this measure, especially on vulnerable groups.; Hortzetako txantxarraren etiopatogeniari buruzko ezagutzak asko aurreratu dira azken hamarkadetan, baina gaixotasunak osasun publikoarentzat erronka handia izaten jarraitzen du. Beharrezkoa da ikerketarekin jarraitzea eta prebentzio-estrategia berriak ezartzea, batez ere komunitate ahulenetan, gaixotasuna sorrarazten duten faktore soziodemografikoak kontuan hartuta. Gaur egun jarraitzen den estrategia prebentibo indibiduala ez da eragikorra txantxarrak sortzen dituen desberdintasunei aurre egiteko. Azken hamarkadetan aho-hortzetako txantxarren indizeak jaitsi egin dira Euskal Autonomia Erkidegoan, PADI programari eta uren fluorizazioari esker; gaur egun Europako onenen artean daude. Hala ere, klase sozial baxuenek besteek baino indize askoz handiagoak dituzte. Hori dela eta, oso garrantzitsua da Eusko Jaurlaritzak, azkenean uraren fluorizazioa bertan behera uzten badu, azterketa metodologiko zorrotzak egitea erabaki horren eragina neurtzeko, bereziki talde ahuletan.
