Relationship of cariosis in children under 3 years old with the degree of fetal hypoxia

Makarchuk Olga Anatolyevna

There are a number of studies aimed at studying the negative effect of pregnancy complications on the formation and further development of the dento-jaw system of the fetus. The paper considers the relationship between the degree of hypoxia and carious lesions in children under the age of 3 years. It was found that in children who had a pronounced degree of hypoxia in utero, carious spots were 1.5-2 times more common, and their area and density of carious spots were greater than in children who had a moderate degree of hypoxia in utero. This dictates the need to develop specialized measures aimed at early diagnosis and timely therapy of fetal hypoxia.
