Among various somatic diseases, ENT-diseases (96%), gastrointestinal (83%), central nervous system (72%), urogenital tract (72%), hepatobiliary system (71%) and other diseases were found. In children and adolescents with somatic pathology, dental diseases are occured in 40,6±0,42% cases. The most common were dental caries (90,1%), periodontal diseases (68,3%), and dentofacial abnormalities (41,6%). The low hygienic status of the oral cavity was established (HI=2,4± 0,28). Dental health in children and adolescents with somatic pathology was 59,4±0,60%, which is lower than in almost normal children by 12,7% and age-related normal values by 22%.
