[The condition of teeth in adult population aged 35-44 years living in a small town and in villages in the Province of Poznan].

In an epidemiological study the condition of teeth was assessed in 120 subjects aged 35-44 years living in Sroda Wielkopolska and villages around it. Group I (60 subjects) lived in the town and group II (60 subjects) came from villages. Each group contained 30 women and 30 men. A high prevalence of caries was found, (99.16% for the whole studied population) with the mean DMF value 16.79%. The highest DMF values were found in group II in women--21.66. These high values of DMF were due to a great number of carietic teeth, teeth removed because of caries, and a relatively small number of teeth with fillings. Slight developmental disturbances of the enamel were observed.

[Dental caries in children aged 7 and 12 years in the Province of Poznan].

The authors present the results of stomatological epidemiological studies in the Province of Poznán in 1987 for establishing the prevalence of dental caries in children aged 7 and 12 years. The assessment was done using the index of caries prevalence, value of the mean DMF-H and dmf-h indices, and their components. In both studied age groups a high prevalence of caries was found, reaching 90% in children aged 7, years and 80% in those aged 12 years. The intensity of caries in children aged 7 years measured by the index DMF-h+dmf-h (mixed teeth) was high--4.99. The intensity of caries was higher in children from rural areas (5.43) than in those from urban areas (4.455). The mean value of DMF-h was 0.49 for the whole population studied, and 0.41 for urban children and 0.56 for rural children. The mean DMF-z value in children aged 12 years was below 3.0 (2.34), and it was higher in children from rural areas (2.96) than in those from urban areas. The values of these indices were influenced mainly by high mean numbers of milk and permanent teeth with active caries. In the studied population a small number of filled teeth was noted.

[Requirements for prosthetic treatment of adults aged 35-44 years in the Province of Poznan].

Stomatological examination of a group of 120 adults aged 35-44 years living in the Province of Poznań showed considerable loss of teeth (mean loss--7 in towns and 9 in villages). It was found that a small percent of these adults had prosthetic replacements. The greatest requirements were for partial lower prostheses and upper partial prostheses. Generally, greater loss of teeth was found in the rural population compared with the urban one.

[Assessment of the need for treatment of periodontal diseases by means of the Bellini system].

The authors evaluate the usefulness of a new classification system for the need for care of peridodontal diseases. The system in question has been elaborated by Bellini and is to date little known in the People's Republic of Poland. The system was tested in students of the Medical Academy and employees of an enterprise in Poznań. It was stated that Bellini's system is very suited for the examination of great population groups. It permits to appreciate in no time the periodontal condition and to determine the kind and the number of the necessary prophylactic and therapeutic measures and the time required for them.

Microgenia as a factor making endotracheal intubation impossible.

The authors report a case of microgenia which made endotracheal intubation impossible in a patient with pharyngeal stenosis. It is suggested that laryngological examination should precede the operation and when endotracheal intubation is impossible tracheostomy should be performed.
