The article highlights the correlation between the indicators of the immunological status of the oral fluid and the intensity of the periodontal inflammatory process in children with chronic catarrhal gingivitis who live under the conditions of complex effects of environmental pollution and fluorine and iodine deficiency. We evaluated the condition of the periodontal tissues of children aged 7, 12, 15 years based on clinical data and indicators of the papillary-marginal alveolar index (PMA), which was used to determine the intensity of the periodontal inflammatory process (G. Parma, 1960; Masler, 1967). The level of leukocytes and the content of immunoglobulins lg A, M, and G were determined in the children's oral fluid, which reflected the immunological status of the examined children. To study and analyze the relationship between the indicators of the immunological status of children's oral fluid and the PMA index, a correlation analysis of these parameters was conducted. It was established that with the increase in the age of children, the number of leukocytes (τ=0.81) and PMA index levels (τ=0.83) increase statistically significantly (p<0.001). The study revealed the presence of negative, statistically significant (p<0.001), correlations between children's age and concentrations of immunoglobulins – IgA (τ=-0.83), IgM (τ=-0.83), IgG (τ=- 0.83). There are statistically significant correlations (strong and medium strength) between the PMA indices' values and all children's immunological indicators. A direct correlation has been established between PMA indices and the number of leukocytes; and there is a negative correlation between PMA indices and immunoglobulins (IgA, IgM, IgG).
