The purpose of the study was to assess the dental status of children with mental retardation (MR) studying at the Bakhchisarai Special Boarding School. 98 pupils (67 boys and 31 girls) were examined, divided into age groups: group I 7-8 years old (n=25), group II 11-12 years old (n=39), group III 14-15 years old (n=34). During the examination, dental preventive indexes and the method of transillumination using the Estus Light photoactivator were used. The prevalence and intensity of caries (DMF index), the level of oral hygiene according to the GreenVermillion index (OHI-S), the complex periodontal index (CPI), the PMA index, as well as indicators of salivation rate, saliva pH and its buffer capacity were evaluated. The prevalence of caries was 84.43% in group I, 90.35% in group II, and 95.83% in group III, indicating a high prevalence rate. The intensity of caries (DMF) was 3.730.14; 4.260.18 and 5.06 0.20, respectively: in groups I and II the average level, in group III high. The average indicator of oral hygiene is 2.170.21, which is characterized as an unsatisfactory level. The CPI value (2.170.21) indicated an average severity of periodontal diseases. The prevalence of gingivitis was 43.53%, which corresponds to the average severity of inflammation. The data obtained indicate the need to develop non-drug preventive measures adapted to the characteristics of children with MR.
