Declarations
:
: The Local Ethics Committee, Dental School, University of São Paulo (#01/06) previously approved this research protocol. Children and their parents were invited to participate in the study. Both child and his/her legal caregiver/parent should give informed consent/assent to be included as a participant in the study. All participants' parents must have signed a written informed consent declaration. For children, researchers verbally explained about the protocol, risks and benefits and the verbal assent was registered. This option was approved for the Local Ethics Committee since most children to be included would not be able to read and write (Resolution 466, National Health Council, Brazil, December 12th 2012—ExternalRef removed).
