THE PREVENTION OF PRIMARY CARIES DUE TO THE TIMING OF THE ERUPTION AND MINERALIZATION OF PERMANENT TEETH IN CHILDREN

Numerous clinical observations indicate that caries develops most intensively in the first years after teething, which coincides with the period of immature enamel. Due to the mineralization of enamel, its resistance to caries increases. The terms of eruption and mineralization of permanent teeth in school age children with the physiological development of the child coincide with the terms of complete resorption of the roots of temporary teeth. Eruption and mineralization of permanent teeth is an important aspect of a child's growth and development. Teething is a very complex and not fully understood process.
