Popis: Objective. Hygienic assessment of the quality of drinking water from two rivers, Kama and Chusovaya, which supply the city of Perm, was carried out. Water in them is different in mineral composition, but similar in terms of anthropogenic pollution. Materials and methods. Dental status was determined in 142 schoolchildren aged 15-17 years old, who use water from different sources. The concentration of total calcium and magnesium in the oral fluid was determined for all schoolchildren. Results. The study found that the degree of mineralization of drinking water affects the mineral composition of the saliva. Schoolchildren, who use drinking water of low mineralization, have a low concentration of calcium and magnesium in the saliva and a high intensity of dental caries. Schoolchildren, who use drinking water of increased mineralization, have a high concentration of calcium and magnesium in the saliva, a low intensity of dental caries and a high intensity of periodontal diseases due to an increased formation of tartar. Treatment and preventive measures, carried out among schoolchildren, included the drug Complivit, plates CM 1, low-intensity laser light. Conclusions. The effectiveness of treatment and preventive measures was determined by the activity of the oral fluid enzymes before and after the course of treatment.
