[Caries, gingivitis and dental abnormalities in patients with cleft lip and palate].

Oral health was studied in 31 children aged 10-12 years with cleft lip and palate and compared to 31 noncleft controls matched for sex and age. We found a difference in the prevalence and activity of caries with increase in cleft lip and palate patients. The unilateral crossbite and the congenitally missing teeth were more common in cleft palate children and the supernumerary teeth were fewer. Almost all children used fluoride tablets.

[Bone age of children in 2 communities in Hungary with different fluoride levels in the drinking water].

The adverse effects of ingested fluoride were investigated. The bone-age of children consuming drinking water containing optimum (about 1 mg/l) fluoride concentration with regard to caries prophylaxis was compared with the bone-age of those consuming drinking water containing low (0.14-0.26 mg/l) fluoride concentration. The examinations were conducted on 7-14-year old Hungarian children. The bone-age was determined by the TW2 method. No significant difference was found between the bone-age of the children belonging to the group consuming water with optimum fluoride concentration and those in the other group consuming water with low fluoride concentration.
