Abstract
Anticipatory Guidance is a form of health care where the information provided helps the families to prepare for expected physical and behavioural changes during their child’s or teen’s current and approaching stage of development. Anticipatory guidance should be provided to pregnant women, new mothers and other caregivers because bacteria such as S.Mutans can be transmitted from mother (or) caregiver to infant (or) child through contact. This article discusses with the application of Anticipatory guidance in oral health care.
