This study aims to determine the role of the mother in the family to prevent child caries and DMF-T rate. The research design used in this study was cross-sectional quantitative analysis using a survey method with a total sample of 70 people using a total sampling technique. The results of this study show that the role of the mother with the DMF-T rate shows that the mother has a good role with a moderate caries rate of 17 respondents with a percentage (24%).
