Index estimate of the intensity of caries and the level of resistance of tooth enamel to caries in somatically healthy men from different Regions of Ukraine

In somatically healthy men from different regions of Ukraine is observed the 100% level of prevalence of dental caries with a total intensity of caries corresponding to the average level of CPU. Among the indica-tors of the intensity of dental caries (without separation and divided into different levels of CPU) and the re-sistance of the enamel of the teeth to caries, and their frequency distribution, the largest number of regional differences found for indicators of caries intensity and frequency distribution (attention is drawn to a larger overall CPU level in all groups, as well as the frequency of high and very high levels of CPU as a result of cone beam computed tomography, and the results of dental examination - a higher rate of low-level CPU). For indicators of the level of resistance of tooth enamel to caries significant regional differences virtually are not found.
