Characteristics of caries and parodontal diseases in young men with constitutionally determined nutrition insufficiency

: 151 young men with constitutionally determined nutrition insufficiency were examined. For absolute majority of them multiple caries with primary lesions development in incisors and on 3 molar surfaces was typical. In patients with constitutionally determined nutrition insufficiency caries complications with predominance of acute apical or chronic periodontitis were 3 times more often diagnosed. Low level of oral hygiene was noted in such young men that correlated with high prevalence of severe gingivitis in them.
