BACK TO THE HISTORY OF DENTAL DEVELOPMENT HELPING CHILDREN

Abstract

Pediatric dentistry studies the prevention, clinic, diagnosis and treatment of diseases of the teeth, periodontal and mucous membranes of the mouth, tongue and lips, taking into account the age characteristics of the child and their impact on the growing body. The history of the formation of specialties can be divided into periods. The period of primary accumulation of knowledge on pediatric dentistry (before the XVIII century) was characterized by separate mentions of pediatric dental problems in the works of scientists of the Ancient East and the ancient Middle Ages. Extensive data on the eruption, growth and structure of teeth at different ages, symptoms of dental and oral diseases, treatment methods and dental care manuals are contained in the famous "Medical Canon" of Abu Ali Ibn Sina (Avicenna, 980-1037). In this study, scientists have data on teething, growth and structure at different ages, symptoms of dental and oral diseases, treatment methods and dental treatment manuals. In Russian medicine, especially in the field of dentistry, his practical recommendations for the treatment of inflammatory processes in the maxillofacial region are rarely promoted. At the same time, in Uzbekistan, his work and his life are widely studied at universities and scientific institutions.
