| Summary: | Rampant caries is the most aggressive and rapidly progressing type of carious disease. The management of these patients represents one of the most challenging experiences in any dental office because of the gravity and high risk of recurrence. The early diagnosis of this condition and identification of the risk factors allows the control of the disease and avoid repetitive, inefficient and aggressive operative procedures.
