Sažetak
An objective method of the plak test and appraisal of the mouth cavity hygiene by the »Plak-Lite« system and usage of the modified plak index of the approximative spaces (API-index, Lange6, 1975.) is presented in this paper. The obtained results indicate that the »Plak-Lite« system is appropriate method to test the infant mouth cavity hygiene. A degree of the interdental space hygiene could be procentualy expressed by the approximative space index, and this allows the patient to follow and assess for himself the efficiency of tooth brushing. An appropriate contact with children and their motivation for cooperation will give the optimal results after four visits to dentist already.
