摘要：乳牙龋病属于全球范围内颇为常见的一种口腔疾病，它给儿童的生长发育带来了极为严重的风险影响。所以针对乳牙龋开展早期的预防干预工作显得格外重要。Cariostat 龋活跃性检测法算得上是一种操作便捷且速度较快的龋病风险评估工具，在龋病的防治相关领域当中获得了较为广泛的运用。本篇文章全面且细致地对 Cariostat 检测法的基本原理、发展经历、在儿童身上所呈现出来的应用效果、各种各样的影响因素以及和其他龋病检测方法之间的对比情况进行了梳理总结，同时深入且详尽地就其在龋病风险预测方面所取得的研究进展展开了探讨，并且还对未来的相关研究方向作出了相应的展望，希望能够为龋病实现精准预防以及个性化干预给予一定的参考方面的依据。
