If there is a temporary filling on thedeciduous teeth, it is also diagnosed to be caries.Results:(1)10391students’height and weight is increasing with the growth of theirage in this survey. The total rate of malnourishment is18.39%,which is lower thanwhole country’s average rate which is32.6%[1]. And the rate of overweight and obesityis20.08%, which is more than whole country’s average rate. The rate ofmalnourishment of some students around6-11years old in public primary schools is15,15%,and the rate of overweight and obesity is25.28%; while in private primaryschools is21.76%and14.67%.So there is significant difference between public andprivate schools, male and female around different ages by statistic tests（p<0.01）.(2)10391students’ caries detection rate around6-11years old rises in thefirst stage, and then decrease with their growth of their age.

Therate of caries keeps increasing. Although the rate of poor eyesight is lower than wholecountry’s average rate, the rate of poor eyesight of students who are older than7yearsold is increasing. Maybe it is related to the unreasonable diet structure, the less time ofexercise, the imperfect knowledge of mouth health and unreasonable eye habits.Education and Health departments should actively carry out effective health educationand health promotion activities, advocating good health habits, in order to improve thehealth awareness and health level of students.
