Summary. The article describes the relationship between caries intensity, oral hygiene and enamel resistance during the period of secondary mineralization of teeth is an actual task, the solution of which will be the basis for the justification of caries prevention.
The aim of the study – to assess the relationship between caries intensity, oral hygiene and enamel resistance during the period of secondary mineralization of the teeth.
Materials and Methods. 156 children were examined, among them 76 were between 12 and 15 years of age and 80 children aged 16 to 18 years. To assess the odor of caries of chewing teeth, the intensity of the KPV index and intensity levels according criteria were determined. The condition of hygiene of the oral cavity was estimated using the hygienic index Green-Vermilion. Structural-functional resistance was determined by the TER-test Okushko V. R., Kosareva L. I. (1983).
Results and Discussion. As a result of our research, we found that with an increase in the intensity of the carious process in children of both groups of the study deterioration of the hygienic state of the oral cavity according to the OHI-S index. Also between this index and TER-test there is a strong correlation relationship. When TER-test increases the value of OHI-S index enlarges.
Conclusions. Unsatisfactory level of hygiene of the oral cavity, especially during the period of active mineralization of the enamel, contributes to reducing the resistance of the enamel, which plays a significant role in the development of caries in children of the study group.
