Abstract:
Using CPITN recommended from the WHO periodontal treatment needs in 22,118 children between 6 and 14 years from Rostock County were estimated. According to that the need of periodontal care in the examined young population is low and preventive care has precedence. For children until 12 years of age the evaluation of CPITN has some problems. The routine application of the CPITN is recommended as a screening for high-risk patients.
