The rate of caries for 8 years old children is higher than in 6-7 years old children (P < 0.001).ConclusionThere is a high caries rate in children in Zhongkai Hi-Tech Zone of Huizhou, so oral health education, primary teeth caries treatment, and fissure sealant of permanent teeth should be strengthened.}
