title: [The periodontal status of schoolchildren in different age groups].
abstract: Examinations of the periodontium, carried out in 350 schoolchildren, aged 12 to 16, in the town of Odessa, included registration of the CPITN, PMA, Green-Vermillion's, and CDL indexes. The findings evidence that adolescents aged 12 to 15 have but few periodontal segments with bleeding gingiva, their PMA indexes are reduced, and hygienic status of the oral cavity is getting better, but by the age of 16 accumulation of dental deposit results in inflammation enhancement. Though girls, whatever their age, take better care of the oral cavity, its status is not much better in them than in boys.
