title: [Periodontological therapeutic needs of selected age groups in Poland].
abstract: The needs for periodontological treatment were assessed on the basis of the most modern needs index CPITN in 3 age groups 7, 12 and 35-44 years. The obtained results indicated that in children aged 7 and 12 years the highest need for periodontological treatment was in the first category of need (TN 1). In the group of adults the highest proportion was again in the 1 and 2 categories of need. The proportion of subjects with healthy periodontium was highest in children aged 7 years (51.89%) and lowest in the age group 35-44 years (0.66%).
