A good condition of the periodontium was found in children living in Wieliczka, that is a region under particular protection. The worst state of the periodontium was found in Cracow. In all, 50.0% of children required instruction and improvement of oral hygiene. The mean sextant value of healthy periodontium per one child was 4.39.
