title: [The structural characteristics of the masticatory apparatus and dental prophylaxis].
abstract: Maxillofacial anthropometric parameters (Pont's index, Tons' index, length of the anterior section of upper dental arch, ratio of upper dental arch to sizes of 12 teeth, ratio of apical basis width to sizes of 12 teeth, mandibular angle size, facial width index) were examined in 59 residents at the town of Omsk born there aged 20 to 25 with normal orthognathic occlusion and low intensity of carious involvement. The data helped define specific features of dental caries prevention measures in this population.
