Objective: Aim: This research is focused at analyzing the indicators and substantiating the peculiarities of caries prevention in permanent teeth in schoolchildren of Poltava region, taking into account the endemic features of the Poltava region.
Patients And Methods: Materials and Methods: A comparative study was conducted among 608 pupils of secondary schools in Kremenchuk, who consumed drinking water with fluoride concentrations in the lower limits of the norm, and 1214 pupils of secondary schools in Poltava, who consumed drinking water with fluoride concentrations in the optimal upper limits of the norm.
Results: Results: The rates of caries in permanent teeth in children living in a region with fluoride concentrations in drinking water in the optimal-upper normal range are several times lower than in children of the same age living in a region with fluoride concentrations in drinking water in the lower normal range, and a significant increase in the prevalence and intensity of caries is observed from 7 to 9 to 12 years of age, as teeth after eruption are most vulnerable to caries.
Objective: The aim: To estimate the neutrophil activities in adolescents with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) depending on periodontal state.
Patients And Methods: Materials and methods: A total of 93 individuals aged 12-16 years, including 62 T1DM patients and 31 healthy (H) controls, were included. Both groups were categorized into subgroups depending on their periodontal state.
Objective: The aim: To study the prevalence of odontoglyphic variants of the first permanent molars of the lower jaw in children 6-7 years old, as well as the frequency of caries lesions in molars with the most common types of patterns on their chewing surface.
Patients And Methods: Materials and methods: We studied 1092 mandibular molars in 564 children without background pathology at the age of 6-7 years. The dynamics of the occurrence of fissure caries was studied in 347 first permanent molars of the lower jaw for 2 years and 246 molars in 155 children from among those observed during 3 years of the study.
