In a period of twelve years (1975-1986) the children of the group 2(6)/12-3 years old were investigated in the créches of Berlin-Mitte district. The frequency of dysgnathisms is constant nearly 50%. In contrary to this the frequency of caries has decreased continuously. It is necessary to treat habits as soon as possible. Unfavourable cases of habits strengthen the tendency to dysgnathisms.
