| Popis: | There is a demand in statistical processing of questionnaire data and objective screening of children with the usage of correlation analysis as well as interview with parents in order to increase their awareness about caries prevention and lifestyle. The emergence of caries in children 7-12 years of age is influenced by socio-hygienic factors. During the interview with parents, the effect of a combination of factors was found (i.e. avoiding referring to a dentist for the purpose of prevention or professional hygiene, neglecting the additional hygienic tools and methods and low awareness about them, regularity and balance of nutrition, lack of awareness concerning etiology of caries appearance, referring to a dentist only in case of toothache, anxiety during a visit to a dentist. Interview with children showed the impact of a combination of factors on the occurrence of caries. Among them are evasion of referring to a dentist for the purpose of prevention, lack of awareness concerning etiology of caries appearance, referring to a dentist only in case of toothache, anxiety during a visit to a dentist, low awareness concerning additional hygienic tools and methods. The combined effect of parental awareness and habits on the development of caries in children is much higher than the effect of the respective peculiarities of children. Thus, the analysis of caries appearance factors in children aged 7-12 years reveals the existence of close relationships between the alimentary, behavioral habits of parents and the appropriate habits of children and the development of pathological changes in the oral cavity of children which leads to the propagation of carious lesions. This requires improvement of preventive work with parents aimed at formation of healthy lifestyle habits and oral health care in order to prevent pathology of oral cavity and masticatory apparatus. |
