Abstract

The article presents the results of an anonymous survey of 12 and 15 years old children with different levels of caries intensity on subject of dental health self-assessment using subjective indicators system EGOHID. The survey found that children with multiple caries mostly suffer from dental pain and less of them are satisfied with appearance of their teeth relative to the control group. Studied dental health indicators objectively reflect the dental status and quality of life of children.

Key words: dental caries prevention, oral health indicators.
