Analytic observational descriptive research, with a cross-sectional study de-sign. Hypothesis testing was carried out using the Spearman Rank test. The results showed a mean DMF-T index value of 0.3 with low caries status (100%). The mean value of the def-t index was 2.1 with low (68%), medium (19%), and high (13%) caries sta-tus. There is a relationship between dental caries lesion status and quality of life in children. Statistically the correlation between the two is significant because it has a probability value of 0.000 (Sig.<0.05). The lower the score of the child's dental caries lesion sta-tus, the better the child's quality of life. It is concluded that dental caries lesion status can affect children's quality of life.
