Objective: To analyze the impact of cariogenic potential in the lunch boxes of children in early education. Method: Descriptive documentary. Conclusion: The cariogenic potential present in the lunch boxes of preschool children is a determining factor in the prevalence of dental caries, one of the most common chronic diseases in childhood. Despite efforts to improve oral health through educational campaigns and public policies, the persistence of diets rich in fermentable sugars in the school environment underscores the need for more effective and targeted interventions. Scientific evidence demonstrates that the reduction of sugars consumption, together with the promotion of healthy eating habits and equitable access to nutritious foods, is crucial to reduce the incidence of caries in this vulnerable population.
