Abstract

Subject. Digital technologies and information resources in the prevention of dental diseases in children's patients and their implementation in the activities of dental medical organizations of the Republic of Tatarstan.
 The aim. To develop an information resource for children and their parents on the prevention of dental diseases in children's patients.
 Results. The main method of influencing the patient is individual preventive counseling. Hygienic education and upbringing should be strictly differentiated by purpose and content, depending on the age of children. However, pediatric dentists have difficulties in teaching the patient and their parents hygiene skills. For example, this may be due to the lack of free time for parents to listen to information from a doctor about the prevention of dental diseases. Parents receive information from the Internet and social groups without thinking about the correctness of the information received and the availability of a scientific approach. The authors have developed a software product for patients of dental medical organizations of children's profile, in which the space is divided by age: from 0 to 17 years.
 Conclusions. Despite the scaling up and implementation of preventive measures, the intensity of caries and its increase in many regions of the Russian Federation is at a fairly high level. The lack of information received at the clinical reception, the psycho-emotional component of the child's behavior, the lack of a scientific approach in the Internet information networks lead to low effectiveness of prevention programs. That is why one of the main directions in healthcare is the prevention of diseases, as well as the formation of a healthy lifestyle for both adults and children. The use of the developed product provides various advantages both for the dental medical organization and for patients and their parents. But most importantly, this will increase the effectiveness of preventive measures in children's patients.
