General dental practitioners (GDPs) differ in the preventive and curative care they provide to their young patients. This may be related to variation in the caries risk of patients, but also to differing opinions among GDPs about ’proper care’. Longitudinal data offers the possibility to make care patterns of GDPs comparable and to reveal possible treatment variation between GDPs. GDPs who participated in this study delivered data on the oral healthcare services (OHS) they provided to young patients during the period 2013–2017. Subsequently, data from patients who received regular OHS for 4 to 5 years were used in the analyses. Based on this, longitudinal preventive and curative care patterns were distinguished. Patients were divided into 3 preventive care patterns: no prevention, occasional prevention, and regular prevention. Furthermore, 3 curative care patterns were distinguished: no curation, curation in 1 year, and curation in several years. These care patterns were then combined. In addition, patients were classified into caries risk categories based on the caries-related treatments they received over a 2-year period: low (no procedures), elevated (1 procedure), and high (2 or more procedures). The caries risk based on the first 2 years and the last 2 years in the dataset were combined into a longitudinal caries risk profile. The most frequent combined care pattern (35.8%) was no curation and occasional or regular prevention. The most common longitudinal caries risk profile was low at beginning and end (45.2%). Dental practices varied considerably in the distribution of curative and preventive care patterns. Thereby, no relationship was shown between curative care patterns and provided preventive care. There was also a large spread in the provided OHS within the various caries risk profiles. These diversities indicated treatment variation between GDPs, which is unwarranted if less or more care is provided than necessary.
