Relevance. Problem of children health maintenance becomes more important nowadays. According to results of scientific researches of the last decade oral health influences general health state, therefore condition of the dentofacial system can be considered as indicator of general health.Purpose. To evaluate the effectiveness of the use of standard steel crowns for the children's oral cavity sanitation based on an analysis of the teeth condition and peripheral blood counts.Materials and methods. 77 children 4-9 years old, whose temporary molars during oral cavity sanitation after treatment of chronic pulpitis by vital pulp amputation were restored using either filling materials or stainless steel crowns were examined. Dental state was analyzed by evaluation of caries rate, caries rate’s increment and reduction of caries rate’s increment. In order to evaluate general performance status of children in research groups general blood test and immunogram were taken twice (before sanation and a year after) to estimate total concentration and percentage of different types of leucocytes, T-helpers and T-suppressors.Results. Children 4-9 years old, whose temporary molars during oral treatment were restored using stainless steel crowns demonstrate significant improvement of dental state by 54% reduction of caries rates increment. Children 4-9 years whose temporary molars were restored using stainless steel crowns had statistically significant decline of leucocytes amount (from 9,62 K/mcL to 7,35 K/mcL) and tendency to cell immunity stabilization, which definitely testify improvement of general status.Conclusions. The study shows improvement of dental state and some characteristics of peripheral blood of 4-9 year old children whose temporary molars were restored using Stainless Steel Crowns.
