Fluorine content in natural cow milk has been determined with a view to the fluoration of the milk and its use for dental caries prophylaxis. Fluorine has been determined by the method of standard calibration, making use of fluorine selective electrode and "Orion SA 720 pH/ISE Meter" with LCD display. The mean fluorine quantity in milk is mean = 0.046 ppm, being far lower than the optimal fluorine concentration.

The adhesives for prostheses are intended to improve the retention of that kind of constructions and to increase the masticatory ability of the patient. The authors studied comparatively the adhesive properties of some of the often used adhesives for complete prostheses--Kukident, Super Poly Grip, Co Re Ga, Badident and Badident N. The highest values of unstuck strength have Badident and Badident N--86.30 and 77.48 MN/m2.10(-4) respectively.

An attempt has been made for investigation and classification of the causes for diamond instruments for dental practice resource decrease. The overheating of the instruments is considered to be the main cause and the plastic materials smudges and unstable fixing of the diamond grains--as accompanying causes. Taking in consideration the above mentioned factors could contribute to a more rational use of the diamond instruments for dental practice.

The introduction of the computer technique in the stomatological science and practice actualized the problems of coding of stomatological information. The material presented discusses the problems of devising of optimal code system, intended for the stomatological symptomatics. An original mode for semipontional coding is proposed. Basic characteristics of the code system are described, stressing up its main advantages.

The author discusses the term orthopedic stomatology used only in the Soviet and Bulgarian literature implying prosthetic treatment in the maxillofacial region and oral cavity, proposing its substitution for a more appropriate and officially accepted, on a world-wide scale, named prosthetic stomatology. In this way, the aim is the elimination of the incorrect terms out of the scientific stomatological language in addition to the achievement of terminological standardization with the other countries throughout the world.

A total of 125 students, aged from 6 to 18, with dysplasia of the permanent teeth were examined by a qualified pediatric stomatologist and orthodontist. Dental-jaw deformities (DJD) were established in 74.40% of all examined students. Most frequent proved to be the combination of DJD with hypomineralization in mixed dentition (34.41%) and with hypoplasia in permanent dentition--20.45% and hypomineralization--10.75%. The analysis with a view to the type of DJD revealed that the combination between dysplasias of the permanent teeth and deformities in the proportion of the jaws was most frequent (56.84%). The highest relative share of deep bite was established (27.89%) with no tendency to selfregulation in the permanent dentition. The authors underlined the necessity of follow-up care of the students with dysplasia in combination with DJD in connection with the joint therapeutic and orthodontic treatment.

A model is proposed for the organization of mass orthodontic prophylaxis in the integrated pediatric institutions (IPI), covering the following more important activities: I. Follow-up care of the organized pediatric groups in the crêches and nurseries with a view to orthodontic prophylaxis. II. Analysis of the data from the prophylactic examinations, written down in special cards, worked out by the authors. According to the needs of the children they are distributed in four follow-up groups. III. Mass orthodontic prophylaxis. The more important measures of primary and secondary mass orthodontic prophylaxis are established and grouped respectively. IV. Visual-educational materials. V. Colour film of the model. The proposed model is admitted to illustrate and convincingly present the possibilities of the mass prophylaxis in IPI and, in parallel, it could serve as a programme for mass orthodontic prophylaxis.

Over 40 patients, suffered from tumours in the oral cavity and maxillofacial region but were diagnosed and treated as patients with inflammatory process by polyvalent stomatologists within a 9-year period (1978-1987). After the adequate studies and treatment, it has been established that were tumour diseases in the oral cavity with a clinical picture of inflammatory processes. The necessity of a good knowledge about the modern methods of diagnostics, classification and prophylaxis of those diseases has been stressed upon on base of the studies carried out and unreserved consent to the common language in this respect in all therapeutic-prophylactic units.
