Introduction. Diseases of periodontal tissue in childhood is a widespread pathology that is associated with the multifactorial nature of illness. Therefore, the target of our work was to analyze periodontopathogenic factors identified during the survey of children aged 12-15 years in Chernivtsi and to establish the relationship between lifestyle, nutrition, bad habits, somatic pathology and the condition of periodontal tissues in children. A survey of children was conducted using a Google form. The total number of respondents was 155 people aged 12-15 years. The questions were combined into several blocks, namely the collection of general data, lifestyle information and a block of dental questions giving an idea of the incidence of periodontal tissues. Methods of descriptive statistics were used. According to the survey: 47.3% of respondents eat without a clear system, 80% of children prefer sweets, 60% of respondents consume bottled water, 20% – crinic, and in 29.1% of cases there are systemic diseases. Conclusions. Thus, despite the significant educational and preventive work among the population, issues of rational nutrition remain problematic, which, in turn, has a direct negative impact on dental health, namely the condition of periodontal tissues. The results of the survey showed that the level of knowledge of children is insufficient for the formation of proper hygienic skills, as well as the need for preventive measures for parodot tissue diseases.
