-73% of preschoolers and 48% of primary school age children who have experienced cavities currently have unfilled cavities
-4.5 million children develop pediatric dental disease every year
-While the American Academy of Pediatric Dentists recommends that every child establish a dental home by their first birthday, only 1.5% of 1-year-olds have had a dental office visit compared with 89% who have had an office-based physician visit.
