Abstract

The lack of information on the relationship between the indicators of micro, macronutrient and dental status of adolescents living in Yamal was the basis for analyzing these indicators. A comprehensive dental examination of 112 adolescents aged 12 and 15 years, from among the indigenous peoples living in the territory of the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous District, an assessment of the actual nutrition and elemental composition of blood serum was carried out. The analysis of the data showed that the prevalence of dental caries among the examined exceeds 99 %. The CPI index ranged from 4,6-7,7. The imbalance of micro- and macroelements involved in ontogenesis and providing the processes of remineralization of hard tooth tissues was revealed. Correction of the elemental status should be included in the complex of therapeutic and preventive measures that increase caries resistance.
