Modern reconstructive methods of dentistry (stopping, restoration, and prosthetics with different types of orthopedic constructions) require detailed examination of the anatomical structure of the teeth crowns, especially examination of the knowledge about the relief of masticatory surface. That is why, we conducted a detailed examination of the features of odontoglyphics of molars, according to the sex and determination the odontometrical teeth indices of the citizens of Ternopil region. To achieve the goals, we use the following research methods, such as odontological, odontometrical, and statistical. According to the odontometrical indices of the sizes of the crowns of the molars, women’s processes of reduction are reflected more than men’s. Sex differences of the crown sizes are specially defined on the second upper and second lower molars. In the result of the conducted researches, it was found and theoretically confirmed racial identity of Ternopil and Ternopil region citizens, and it was given the characteristics of the differences of odontometrical indices of molar crowns of males and females. The lore of these characteristics plays a great role in the clinic of prosthetic dentistry.
The aim: To establish the features of the structural organization of enamel in various anatomical areas of the tooth and determine their influence on the characteristics of the course of biomineralization processes. Materials and methods: The study of the structural features of enamel and dentin was performed on thin sections of various groups of teeth. Then morphological, histochemical and electron microscopic examination methods were used. Results: The study found that there are three structural and functional barriers to biomineralization of enamel, which are located in different anatomical areas of the tooth crown. Each of them has both general and specific features. Enamel biomineralization is a continuous process of exchange of calcium ions, donor of which is brushite. The stepwise process of biomineralization turns the latter into calcium octaphosphate, which then turns into hydroxyapatite. The latter, when destroyed by carbon dioxide, forms carboxyapatite. Conclusions: In the result of conducted study was established peculiarities of enamel mineralization processes in different anatomical parts of tooth.
The aim: To study the odontoglific and odometometric parameters of molar crowns of the upper and lower jaws in males and females. Materials and methods: To achieve the aim of the research was used odontoglyphic, odometometric and statistical methods of research. Results: We have found that male molars of the upper jaw are characterized by approximately the same ratio between the vestibular-palatal and mesial-distal diameters of the crown, so the teeth are square-formed. For female large angular teeth of the upper jaw the predominance of vestibular-palatal over mesial-distal diameters of the crown is characteristic, which results in an oval form of the teeth. On having analyzed the forms of the third lower molars, it can be affirmed that for this group of teeth various variational forms of crowns, from three- to five-tuber forms, are characteristic. Vestibular-lingual and mesio-distal sizes also vary according to the type of odontoglific pattern of occlusal crown surface. Conclusions: We consider it expedient to take into account the abovementioned characteristics of the masticatory surface of molars of the upper and lower jaws of male and female persons for the creation of qualitative orthopedic structures that would fully restore the masticatory function.
The aim: To determine the degree of severity of the inflammatory process in periodontal tissues of children living in different ecological conditions. Materials and methods: With the purpose of estimation of the condition of periodontal tissues the epidemiology examination of 642 children that live on territory with the high level of pollution and natural deficit of iodine and fluorine was conducted. Results: The study found that the increase of age of examined children causes the decrease of percentage of easy degree of severity of chronic catarrhal gingivitis, giving way to the advanced forms of the disease, and this process was more pronounced in children living in ecologically polluted region. In children-inhabitants of ecologically clean region easy degree of severity of chronic catarrhal gingivitis met more often than their peers living in environmentally polluted region. At the same time, average and heavy degree of severity of chronic catarrhal gingivitis in children living in ecologically contaminated region met more often than their peers, inhabitants of ecologically clean region. Conclusions. It was found that with increasing age of the examined children decreases the percentage of chronic catarrhal gingivitis of moderate severity.
The aim: Is to study the ecological and hygienic situation in the living area of 6-year-old children in terms of drinking water (micro- and macroelements), to identify its relationship with the state of mineral metabolism in children’s mouths, prevalence and intensity of temporary and permanent caries. Materials and methods:Clinical and laboratory studies were to study the objective condition of the teeth -intensity of dental caries according to the recommendations of the WHO and the method of T.F. Vinogradova. The hygienic condition of the oral cavity was determined by the indices Silness-Loe, Stallard. Results: The results of our studies have shown that the proposed therapeutic and prophylactic complex, which includes drugs of endogenous (Vitafluor) and exogenous use (osteovitis, deep fluoridation, toothpastes “Splat junior” and “Lacalut fluor”), improves the hygienic state of the oral cavity, increases mineralizing the potential of the oral fluid and, as a result, helps to reduce the intensity of dental caries in children. Conclusions: The data obtained indicated a high caries prophylactic efficacy of the proposed therapeutic and prophylactic complex for 6-year-old children living in the zone of hypophtorosis.
The aim: To carry out a comparative assessment of metal alloys for the manufacture of metal-ceramic constructions of dentures by determining the indicator of their histotoxicity. Materials and methods: To identify the effect of metal alloys on cobalt and nickel bases on the tissue of organism, we carried out an experimental-morphological study of standard samples of metal alloys “Shot-alloy”, “Remanium-2000”, “Cerium”, “Dent-NCB”, “Cellite-N”. Results: A careful histological analysis of the capsules formed around the metal alloy samples during two periods of the experiment showed that the healing time of the subcutaneous tissue was not the same. The most complete healing, that is, the formation of mature fibrous connective tissue, occurred during the implantation of the cobaltbased alloy “Remanium-2000” and the capsule formed at the end of the experiment around the implanted sample from the “Shot-alloy” alloy, and during the implantation of the “Cerium” alloy, healing the wound surface and the formation of a connective tissue capsule occurs fully than in previous cases. Conclusions: The analysis of the performed experiment testifies in favor of the point of view that the speed and quality of healing of damaged subcutaneous tissue upon the introduction of implanted research alloys depend largely on the individual chemical components that make up the alloys, or on their combination.
