	Caries is a contagious disease affecting most of the population from the first month of life. Almost half of the children under 6 years old are affected by caries and its consequences. The aim of the measures taken is to reduce its spread and level of its incidence in children, preventing health complications in the future. Limiting spreading of caries can decrease amount of invasive dental treatments and following complications. Reducing caries transmission and preventing its onset requires repetitive preventive methods that affect women from pregnancy, through infancy and childhood, and continue into adulthood due to its strong infectivity. This work aims to evaluate the effectiveness of fluoride-containing compounds from childhood onward, as well as comparing them to prevent and reduce the development of cariessss.&#13;
