[Morphological changes in the primordia of the deciduous teeth during an exacerbated course of the antenatal period]. / Morfologicheskie izmeneniia zachatkov vremennykh zubov pri otiagoshchennom techenii antenatal'nogo perioda.

Histologic examination of 380 rudimentary deciduous teeth of 91 stillborn babies or corpses of newborns dead within 16 days after birth and comparison of the results with clinical data brought the authors to a conclusion that the diagnosis of enamel hypoplasia is erroneous because all dental tissues are involved during this condition. Pathohistologic changes in the enamel, dentin, and tissues adjacent to dental rudiment are described in detail, all these tissues developing under unfavorable conditions of antenatal odontogenesis.

Caries and caries-complicated diseases were recorded in 3-year-old children. This permits regarding the presence of a heart disease in a mother as a risk factor in respect of developing deciduous teeth abnormalities and caries.
