Background: Globally, oral health remains a public health concern, particularly in relation towell-being of children and adolescents. Dental caries, one of the most common oral health problem in this group, is considered as a transmissible, infectious disease with significant health consequences. Migration in Europe has increased over the recent years due to geopolitical causes, employment, family reunion, and so forth. Earlier studies show that immigrant populations in Europe have a higher rate of oral problems, and are at higher risk to oral diseases. This review aims to evaluate oral health
