Summary

The goal of this study is to assess the oral health of males juveniles incarcerated at Fleury-Mérogis over a given period.

The goal is also to understand the needs of these patients and improve their care in prison while raising awareness about oral health to achieve lasting results.

Hypothesis: Incarcerated juveniles often grew up in precarious conditions. Is their DMFT (decayed, missing, filled permanent teeth) index higher than the "standard" juvenile population? Public interest: Understanding the needs of these juvenile patients, public health data.

By comparing our results to those of the "standard" population (non-incarcerated minors) through a literature review regarding the DMFT index in these patients, we will determine whether incarcerated juvenile patients represent a population at risk of developing oral pathologies. Oral disease prevention for these patients to raise awareness of the importance of oral hygiene and follow-up dental appointments outside of the prison system. The earlier these patients are educated, the greater the chance they will develop better habits throughout their lives.
