In the initial period of a changeable bite, when the process of eruption of permanent teeth begins, children experience discomfort in the oral cavity, as well as pain during the process of individual cleaning.
In this regard, children do not brush their teeth well, which leads to the appearance of dental deposits and the occurrence of caries, not only on milk teeth, but also on permanent ones.
Studies of the state of oral hygiene have shown an unsatisfactory level of hygiene in children with caries during this period in comparison with children without caries, regardless of gender and age.
An improvement in the hygiene index is observed in children of 7-9 years old, which is explained by the improvement of manual skills with age (in girls, this indicator is much better than in boys).

✔ The ability to timely determine the appearance of caries;
