Prevalence of dental caries in pre-term children enrolled in the current study was found to be 96.6% with mean dmft of 4.03. There was no statistical difference between mean (dmft) scores in males and females.There was a statistical significant direct (positive) correlation between age and (dmft) scores. There was no statistical significant correlation between parents' occupation and the (dmft) scores of children. There was a statistical significant direct (positive) correlation between the (dmft) scores and the gestational age of children i.e. an increase in gestational age is associated with an increase in (dmft) scores and vice versa. Regarding the manner of children's history of feeding; children who were initially breast fed showed a statistical significant lower mean (dmft) scores than those who were initially fed by nursing bottle. Children who had prolonged (at night or on demand) breast feeding duration showed statistical significant higher values than those who had normal breast feeding duration. Children who used bottle feeding after weaning showed statistical significant higher mean (dmft) scores than children who didn't use
