Introduction. The tissues surrounding the implant, which have common features with periodontal tissues, but still possessing a certain specificity are the actual topic of the study. A considerable amount of textbooks has been written on this topic, but so far it has remained little studied. Purpose ― to summarize all knowledge of the structural features of the tissues surrounding the implant, etiology, pathogenesis, clinical picture, differential diagnosis of the pathologies of these tissues. Results. This review is devoted to the analysis of the modern understanding of the influence of the structural features of the soft tissues surrounding the implant and the nonspecific protection factors of the oral mucosa on the potentiation of inflammatory processes and their relationship with the biodegradation of the material. The work of scientists on the criteria for choosing an implantable material depending on the resistance to aggressive environments of the oral cavity, as well as biocompatibility with the tissues of the oral cavity. The risks of complications are considered depending on the implantable material. The etiopathogenesis of such diseases as implantation mucositis and dental periimplantitis is also considered. The clinical picture of these diseases is described, a correlation is made with the materials used for the manufacture of suprastructures. The prevention of complications arising from prosthetics on dental implants is considered.
The article presents a clinical case of the diagnostics and treatment of the temporomandibular joint dysfunction (TMJ) in patient after orthodontic treatment. The hypertonia of masticatory muscles, limit of mouth opening and deviation of the jawbone to the right were observed during physical examination. Adhesion of the disk to the articular tubercle of the right temporal bone was detected on MRI. Hyperrotation of the articular head and the deviation of the jawbone to the right were observed on the charts during axiography. Disappearing of the feeling of heaviness in the right TMJ, free mouth opening, absence of deviation symptom, and the reduction of the rigidity of the masseter muscles were observed on the basis of diagnostic examinations after treatment. Presented clinical experience lets us make a conclusion that it is necessary to prescribe taking axiography and MRI during diagnosing and treating temporomandibular joint dysfunction.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
