Introduction: Orthodontic anomalies are very common both in the world and in our country. The etiology of orthodontic anomalies is multifactorial, complex and conditioned by numerous genetic and non-genetic factors: endogenous and exogenous. Prevention of orthodontic anomalies is possible if we have an insight into the most common etiological factors. Goal: To assess the frequency of individual etiological factors and assess the overall risk of orthodontic anomalies in children in suburban environments. Materials and methods: The research was conducted on 115 children, first grade elementary school pupils (28.68% of all 1st grade students), average age of 6.8 years, from 4 settlements around Novi Sad: Kisač, Kać, Veternik, and Futog. The research was conducted in the form of anonymous rounding surveys for parents with a preliminary explanation of the questions asked. The questions included etiological factors for the occurrence of orthodontic anomalies (diseases in pregnancy, childbirth, breastfeeding, supplementation and feeding, type of pacifier, position of the bottle when eating, bad habits, position when sleeping, position of arms when sleeping in relation to the jaw, pillow height, mouth breathing, orthodontic anomalies in parents). Results: Results indicate the following etiological factors as the most common: supplementary feeding and bottle feeding (in 41.74% of cases), breastfeeding from 0 to 6 months (40.87% of respondents) and mouth breathing (in 24.35% of children). In the examination of the total risk for orthodontic anomalies, low-risk was found in 95.65% of cases, medium-risk in 4.35% (in Kisac 9.38%, in Kać 2.94%, in Veternik 4.35%, in Futog 0% of children), while there were no high-risk respondents. Conclusion: Preventive measures should be aimed at educating mothers about the need and benefits of a natural way of breastfeeding and of using a spoon for supplementation and feeding.

Introduction. Class III malocclusions are characterized by a more prominent lower jaw compared to the upper jaw and a Class III skeletal and dentoalveolar relationship according to Angle. In the scientific literature, there is a small amount of data on the morphological characteristics of malocclusion in different populations, so there is a justified need to examine the morphological characteristics of Class III malocclusion in the population of Vojvodina. The aim of this study was to determine the morphological characteristics of Class III malocclusions, to compare them with the average values found in the scientific literature, and to determine the correlation between the examined parameters of the upper and lower jaw. Material and Methods. This retrospective study included subjects with Class III dentoalveolar malocclusion treated at the Dentistry Clinic of Vojvodina in Novi Sad. The method of random selection was used to select 50 study models. The data were statistically processed with a significance level of p < 0.05. Results. The obtained results indicate that the sum of crown width of the mandibular incisors, the length of the mandibular dental arch, and the mandibular apical base in subjects with Class III malocclusion are higher than the average values in the general population. The values of the posterior width of the maxillary dental arch in the examined group are lower compared to the average values in the general population. Conclusion. Subjects with Class III malocclusion present with a greater mandibular dental arch in regard to the maxillary dental arch.
