Two indexing methods were utilized to record the decay status, i.e., Decay, Missing, filled (DMFT) and Pulpal, Ulcerative, Fistula (PUFA) scores. Caries active group was further divided into a High-risk group (DMFT=\< 10), Moderate risk (DMFT= 4-9), and Low risk (DMFT=1-3).
Questionnaire: Baseline information was gathered, including specifics on age, sex, height, weight, dietary preferences (non-veg/veg), and dental hygiene practices.
