A questionnaire was completed by their mothers carefully about gender, age, order of birth, mother education, the breast - feeding or the bottle feeding. The children were examined by a senior student of dentistry under the natural light by a mirror.Caries, minimally of two maxillary incisors, were also considered as an index. The data were analyzed by SPSS soft ware and submitted to statistical analyses of X2 and Fisher exact tests.Results: The results of this study showed that from among 255 children, age ranging from 2-4 years old, sixty of them (27.5% of the population) was affected with NURSING CARIES. The prevalence of NC among boys and girls were 33.9% and 21.1%, respectively with a more prevalence among 3-4 years old children than 2-3 years oldones.NC did not show any significant relation with mother's education, order of birth, being breast - fed, milk - feeding before sleep and its duration, but a positive correlation was found between NC and sugary snacks.Conclusion: The prevalence of NC, in the west of Mazandaran, was found 27.5% more than Tehran and Mashhad.
