CHANGES IN PERIODONTAL TISSUE IN CHILDREN OF PUBERTY

Abstract

The prevalence of inflammatory periodontal diseases remains at a high
level (Bodet S., 2017), while the clinical picture of the early stages of chronic
generalized periodontitis is characterized by a low-manifest and latent course,
which makes timely diagnosis difficult and, therefore, delays the start of adequate
therapeutic and rehabilitation measures. Studies on the prevention of dental
diseases during orthodontic treatment are numerous, but there are still no clear
criteria for assessing the condition of periodontal tissues, the complexes of
preventive measures necessary to maintain the health of periodontal tissues when
using non-removable orthodontic equipment have not been differentiated.
