We assess caries risk by scanning and detecting white spot lesions(precursors to cavities), dental neglect, physical abuse and malocclusion in order to reduce suffering, and saving teeth through prevention, education, support and research.

Indian Dental Association (IDA) initiative CDF was introduced because in India dental caries has a prevalence as high as 60-80% in children, a figure far more than asthma. Apart from this, about 30% of children suffer from malaligned teeth and jaws affecting proper functioning of the dento-facial apparatus.
