Oral health status of schoolchildren in Iasi

The aim of this study is to assess the oral health status of children aged 7-12 years in Iasi,
in order to evaluate, on a scientific basis, the preventive and restorative treatment needs for this age
group. The study included 345 children aged 7-12 years, who were examined for the dental, periodontal
and orthodontic status. The mean value of the dmft index was 3.24 in the primary dentition
at the age of 7, and the DMFT was 2.35 in the permanent dentition at 12 years. More than 60% of
all lesions were included in caries severity zones 1 and 2. Gingival bleeding affected 27% of the subjects,
and the mean value of IOTN was 2. The authors concluded that it is necessary to continue and
to extend the preventive programmes already started.
