Introduction. Physical development of children is one of the important indicators of the health of the children's population. The state of physical development of the child to a certain extent is reflected in the vital activity of the child's body and is the basis for preventing the emergence of a number of pathological disorders.
The aim. Assessment of physical development and tooth decay in children living in environmentally unfavorable conditions.
Material and methods. 410 schoolchildren of 12 years old living on the territory of the Volyn region with different ecological problems were examined for the evaluation of dental health (HR) and physical development (FR). Anthropometric methods of investigation were used to assess physical development. The length of the body (in cm) and body weight (in kg) were determined. The analysis of the obtained results was carried out using nonparametric methods using the centenary tables [10]. The dental health level (HRD) was determined by the method of PA. Lewis [11]. The prevalence of dental caries was estimated as a percentage, caries intensity according to KPV indices in conventional units according to WHO criteria.
Results and discussion. A detailed analysis of the results showed that the data of physical development (DF) and dental health (SDS) (Table 1) were somewhat related to the place of residence of children and the environmental situation around. It has been found that SRH in children is lower in radioactive contaminated areas, namely in the settlements of Lyubeshiv and Manevich, and ranges from 53.10 ± 1.75% to -58.92 ± 1.62%.

The highest level of SRH among all surveyed children was detected in Lutsk 76.24 ± 2.10%.
Conlusions. The dental health of children living in different ecological conditions is closely related to their physical development. It has been established that boys and girls living in conditionally clean areas are more likely to register average and above average growth rates. |
