The purpose of the study is to justify the need for early orthodontic treatment of children and adolescents. Material and methods. In order to study the prevalence of dental anomalies and deformities in children of Krasnoyarsk, 1,479 children with compensated dental caries were examined. In order to study the frequency of HRT in children with multiple caries, we examined 981 children. Results. In the course of the study, it was revealed that during the period of formed temporary bite, the prevalence of ZCHAD in conditionally healthy children and adolescents in Krasnoyarsk was 31.83±2.44%. In the initial period of replacement bite, there was a higher prevalence of ESRD - 40.45±2.66%. In the period of permanent occlusion, a decrease in the prevalence of PTSD in conditionally healthy children was detected – 34.55±2.37%. The authors recommend that orthodontists conduct mandatory preventive examinations of all children after the age of five in order to conduct early orthodontic treatment.
