Relevance: the prevalence and severity of chronic inflammatory periodontal diseases in multiple somatic diseases were assessed taking into account the gender and age of patients.Materials and methods: a retrospective analysis of 841 "medical records of dental patients" of adult patients of both sexes aged 31 to 83 years who applied to dental clinics in Smolensk was carried out. Documented data on periodontal pathology and internal organs and systems diseases in patients were taken into account.Results: it was established that the degree of severity of chronic inflammatory generalized periodontal disease in persons with somatic pathology is associated with the age of the patient, the duration and severity of the course of somatic diseases.Conclusions: the result of the negative impact of somatic pathology on the periodontal condition is a violation of metabolic processes and tissue protection factors of the periodontal complex, which predisposes to the development of its lesion or accelerates the implementation of the existing periodontal factors.
