Comparison of the DMFT (decayed, missed and filled teeth), DMFS (decayed, missed and filled surface), SiC (significant caries) index and between DT (decayed teeth) and MT (missed teeth) among children with migration background and children without migration background.
Data are expressed in mean (plus SD) and level of significance.
