We have examined 5081 students of different Volgograd universities. We have determined prevalence rate of caries and intensity of the affect by DMF index among students. We have applied Tooth Occlusal Surface Failure Index (TOSFI) offered by V.Y. Milikevich (1984). The work shows different forms of retrognathia, fluorosis, dental enamel erosions, wedge-shaped defects, dental injuries, hypersensitivity among students and represents a new method of dental tissue state estimation based on point rating system.

This work presents data about average values of distances between premolars and molars of upper and lower jaws, and tooth alignment length of different ethnic groups of Eastern Siberia (Russians, Buryats, Khakass and Tuvinians). We examined tooth alignment width and length of upper and lower jaws of 1121 people aged from 17 to 21. We established ethnical and anthropometrical peculiarities of dental arches formation. Buryats men had significantly wider and longer dental arch (p<0.001) than other examined ethnical groups. Buryats women had the same tendency. Correlation analysis was used to find the reasons and interrelation with dental arch peculiarities. Coefficient of correlation relations was observed mostly between couples of attributes such as dental arch length mesial and distal sizes of cutting and canine teeth coronas.

The article presents data about the efficiency of glossalgia and stomatalgia complex treatment. This pathology is rather widespread and distresses patients. The diseases are polygenic, pathogenesis is unplumbed, and treatment methods are multivarious and not always effective. This fact determined the timeliness of the chosen issue. For many years we have been applying different treatment methods. The received results allowed us to recommend some of them, for example cranial electrotherapy stimulation, cryotherapy, hirudotherapy, laser treatment, local immunomodulators, rinsing with antiseptics, split meals, examination by interns if indicated, and general treatment prescribed by different doctors.

The article presents a new estimation method of occlusal relationships state between dental arches based on point rating system. We have examined 5081 students of different Volgograd universities. The analysis of occlusal relationships defects was carried out using L.S. Persin´s classification (1989). The article contains principal characteristics of physiological and optimal functional occlusion. The work shows principal variants of pathologic occlusion as well as point rating estimation system depending on pathology severity. We have identified a prevalence rate of pathological states of students´ occlusive relationships.

В данной работе проанализированы результаты комплексного антропологического обследования женщин различных этнических групп Восточной Сибири (русских, буряток, хакасок, тувинок). На основании оценки анатомо-антропологических показателей установлена гармоничность развития габаритных размеров и компонентного состава тела, выявлены этнические особенности кефалометрических показателей мозгового и лицевого отдела головы. Результат антропологического обследования, проведенного авторами, позволяет на основе усредненных показателей выборки выявить этнографические признаки современного населения юношеского возраста, проживающего в Восточной Сибири в зависимости от этнической принадлежности. Такой подход позволяет оценивать возрастные, половые, конституциональные, этнические, адаптационные особенности организма, варианты его фенотипической организации, особенности строения различных органов и систем, более глубоко анализировать причины возникновения и течение болезней. Его целесообразно использовать не только в проведении научных исследований, но и в практическом здравоохранении, начиная с диспансеризации населения.

A comparative analysis of the anthropological indicators of teenagers living in urban populations in the southern regions of Eastern Siberia to determine the effect metisatsionnyh processes on the physical status of the surveyed ethnic groups. Urban population of the southern regions of Eastern Siberia for a long period existed under severe cross-breeding. The examination included measurement of body parameters (linear and angular measurements Spigot on the head, trunk and extremities), anthropometric measurements, somatotipirovaniya. Taken into account appearance, family history data, passport information and odontological symptoms. Comparative analysis has allowed to create a modern ethnic characteristics of the population of the southern regions of Eastern Siberia, which is a consequence of human adaptation to these conditions on the background of a long and intinsivnoy cross-breeding with indigenous Mongoloid and Slavic peoples.

В данной работе представлены результаты исследования антропометрических, кефалометрических и одонтометрических показателей у мужчин и женщин Хакасии. Независимо от пола более 56% случаев обследованные были астенического соматотипа. По типу головы - брахикефалы в 60,1% и в 56,6%, а по типу лица – лептены в 90,8% и в 72,0% соответственно. При одонтометрических исследованиях размерных показателей резцов, клыков и первых моляров были достоверно значимо больше(p<0,001) у мужчин, чем у женщин. По форме зубных рядов у мужчин на верхней челюсти установлена параболическая форма в 47,0%, а у женщин четырехугольная в 66,0% случаев. Среди патологии зубочелюстных аномалий наиболее часто встречалась скученность зубов более в 71,2% случаев. При анализе оценки эстетического индекса DAI установлено, что с тяжелыми патологиями в интервале равном 31-35, больше всего у женщин в 15,3%, которым необходимо ортодонтическое лечение.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.12731/2218-7405-2013-5-13

The paper looks at the results of study of anthropometric, cephalometric and odontometric characteristics of men and women in Khakassia. Notwithstading the sex more than 65% of examined people belonged to asthenic somatotype. By the shape of head 60,1% and 56,6% were referred to brachycephal, 90,8% and 72,0%, accordingly, to lepten. Odontometric study showed that men had conclusively larger (p<0,001) size of incisor teeth, canine teeth and the first molar teeth than women. 47.0%, of men had teeth of cusp form in the teeth row on the upper jaw, 66.0% of women had teeth of quadrangular shape. Dental crowding was diagnosed in 71.2% of cases and was the most frequent dentoalveolar pathology. Analysis of aesthetic index DAI showed that serious pathology within the interval of 31-35 prevailed among women in 15.3% of cases. They needed orthodontic treatment.

The paper presents the study cephalometry and odontometry indicators in girls and boys from Tuva Republics. We revealed that the brachicepahilic form of the head consists 67.10%-70.12% and lepten type of face consists 60.93%-62.03%. The lower tooth series is significantlylonger (p

Study of human body composition became a new field of medicine and biology and appeared as a separated direction in the second half of XX century. The paper presents retrospective review of studies devoted to human body composition and gives short description of current methods to determine the amount of fat, muscle and bone tissue in the human body. Special attention is paid to bioelectrical impedance analysis, as the most promising method now.
