The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of dental  caries and analyze the status of teeth in relation to sociodemographic  factors and habits and behavior related to oral health among adolescents in  the eastern region of Republika Srpska. Material and Methods. The study  included 212 adolescents (71 males and 141 females) age 16-18 years.  Information about sociodemographic characteristics, oral hygiene habits and  behaviors related to oral health were collected using a questionnaire. The  prevalence of dental caries was determined by applying the DMFT index and its  components (D - decayed, M - extracted, F - filled teeth).
