DIET EFFECT ON TOOTH DECAY WITH INDEX KPE EVALUATION IN BLANSKO
VAŠÍČKOVÁ, Pavlína
Regular development of our teeth is the result of reciprocal induction processes with continual development stages. The non-interrupted development of the organism is the basic precondition of healthy dental tissues. It is, therefore, necessary to be aware of the fact that everybody takes on full responsibility for their own health. If we want to have clean and healthy teeth without tooth ache, oulitis and other problems we must take proper dental care. Tooth decay is the most widespread disease affecting the humankind from of old and proper dental care is, therefore, very important. Deteriorating dental tissues result in tooth decay and have various speed and intensity. Tooth decay affects tooth enamel, get to dental pulp and consequently may cause neuritis the result of which is prolonged pain. In the worst case, abscess may appear. The consequences may become the source of protracted disorders of permanent teeth development. Stomatologists can introduce to us the basics of proper dental care. The first visit at the dentist is recommended before a problem appears. If some problems occur it is necessary to visit the dentist sooner, then the regular preventive exams follow. At least twice a year, we should undergo preventive checkups. Regular monitoring of dental health is important especially for the early identification of undesirable changes in our teeth and gums. Relationship between the dentist and child is also very important. Factors that are important for the prevention of teeth damage are motivation, suitable diet, physical condition, physical education, regular mouth hygiene performed with the use of chemical and mechanical applications. Using of fluoride, changes in life style, suitable eating habits and hygiene habits are also important. If a person develops bad eating habits at a young age the risk tooth decay is becoming more probable. Unhealthy nutrition causes metabolism disorders that result in the increased occurrence of tooth decay and mucosa disease in oral cavity. The nutrition composition is important also for the mineralization and development of hard adenoblasts. Not balanced nutrition leads to the poor development of man and, therefore, to the easier occurrence of the tooth decay. Most serious problems are caused by sugars as bacteria use it as a source, and acids as the subsequent products diminish tooth enamel, dentine or dental pulp. Alcohol, drugs and smoking are counted among other risk factors with negative influence on dentition. Eating disorders are the opposite of healthy and correct eating habits. They are often encountered in diseases connected mainly with lack of appetite. The excessive intake of food occurs especially in obese children. Strengthening of dental tissues resistance, supporting the mineralization process and protection against the bacteria creation is supported by fluorine. For the healthy development of tissues the intake of calcium, phosphor, proteins, minerals and vitamins is important. A very important part of the rational nutrition represent milk and cheese. Pregnant women and nursing mothers especially should follow an appropriate diet. Apart from others consequences, the nutrition structure influences the composition and amount of saliva. Chewing of gum that increases the production of saliva serves also to the teeth cleaning and balances the mouth pH. Chewing can even be better than tooth brushing with toothpaste. Teeth are the symbol of energy and vital force. Poor teeth show lack of immunity and represent the sign of lowering vitality.

Primary Prevention in Care of Teeth
ZELENKOVÁ, Kateřina
I have chosen the topic primary prevention in dental care because I was interested in it and I think it is very up to date. Dental care has been under sustainable development and research provides new trends in this range. It is difficult for either dentists or patients to watch this development and notice everything what is new. Primary prevention in the dental care is a system of measures performed to stop creation of teeth and dental adnexa diseases. As primary prevention we consider health education, dental hygiene, keeping rules of healthy nutrition. The research work was focused on parents of young children who gather their relationship to the dental care and whose consistent training may influence their attitude for the whole life. The aim of my work was {\clq}q To investigate parents knowledge of the prevention of dental deseases at children`` and {\clq}q To investigate the attitude of parents to the prevention of dental deseases at children``. To realize my aims I used the technique of questionnaires. The research group was formed by parents of children in kinder gardens in České Budějovice. My research work was based on three hypotheses:`` Parents are informed about the prevention of dental deseases at their children``, {\clq}qParents teach their children how to perform the dental hygiene``, and {\clq}qParents visit the dentist with the children since their three years age``. All three hypotheses were partly proved. Parents knowledge should be focused mainly on basic equipment for cleaning, using correct technique of cleaning teeth and preventive examinations. This information should be provided by medics in surgeries, via leaflets, magazines, preventive programmes or TV programmes. Parents should take care about the teeth of their children since their infant age, motivate their children to the dental care, search for new information and visit a dentist with their children regularly. Both goals were accomplished. Results of this research work may be used in the practical life as a base for further research work. They may also be used for creation of information material or programmes to support preventive dental care. Kinder gardens where this research work was performed will be informed about the results and they can use it for creation or improvement of the dental care programmes.

INTERFERENCE POSSIBILITIES OF HABITAT OF CARIES IN CHILDHOOD IN BLANSKO
VAŠÍČKOVÁ, Pavlína
The tooth decay is the most widespread disease. The preschool and school age is important period for the tooth decay prevention. The nutrition of children is one of the most important part in interference occurrence of the tooth decay, dental care is also necessary by using chemical and mechanical agents. It is very important for choldren to know the caries prevention. There was found by this research that the nutrition of children do not correspond to the caries prevention, the good and quality nutrition is not given enough for them. The older group is in the worse position. Using the tooth paste and fluorine, the sufficient period of cleaning one's teeth, chewing gum etc. can be positive valued in the problem of the dental care related to the chemical and mechanical agents. But other results of this research in this area show that the dental care is not fully contitioned. The children are not informed enough about the caries prevention related to the nutrition. The parents' and stomatologist' concern in giving the children the information about the dentition is positive, but the role of school is very small and the pediatrists do not give any information. It is necessary to improve the active children attitude and increase the responsibility of the parents, teachers, headmasters, stomatologists, pediatrists and news media. The sense of my work consists in gaining the information about the nutrition of children, dental care and their knowing of the caries prevention.
