Selected diagnostic criteria of providing a full diagnosis of chronic periodontitis in children. On the basis of these criteria reduces the scope of ongoing diagnostic examinations. Built mathematic - cartographical models of the prevalence of periodontitis in children and the classification of territories according to the degree of risk of pathology development of acute periodontitis.

The results of the study indicate a pronounced spatial pattern of epidemiology of chronic periodontitis in children region that should be considered when carrying out diagnostic examinations of children.
