The success of endodontic treatment depends on many factors. The most important of them are the knowledge and manual skills of the dentist.Materials and methods. We analyzed the condition of teeth after endodontic treatment in 300 patients aged 20 to 70 years. Were studied 300 images of CBCT, the number of treated teeth and the number of cases of unsuccessful endodontic treatment was analyzed.Results. According to CBCT data, high-quality obturation of the root canal system was observed in 1335 (75%) endodontically treated teeth. The reasons for successful endodontic treatment are under-sealing of the root canal (16%), removal of material beyond the apex (5.6%), and missed root canals (3.4%).Conclusion. Clinical dental patient examination revealed that maxillary and mandibular molars most often undergo endodontic treatment.
As a result of the study, it was found that the removal of dental plaque using low-frequency ultrasound and ozonized contact medium in chronic generalized catarrhal gingivitis of young people can significantly improve the state of microbiocenosis of the gingival sulcus. The preservation of the main resident species is noted, occasional transient species disappear and the frequency of isolation of aggressive representatives of beta-hemolytic streptococci and periodontopathogenic species decreases. When using ozonated water for the removal of dental deposits, the efficiency of eradication of the microbiota of the gingival sulcus, especially of representatives of aggressive species, is higher than when removing dental deposits without the use of ozonated water.
The dental status of 148 patients aged 18 to 22 years. All students who were diagnosed with generalized catarrhal gingivitis (46) were carried out removal of dental plaque with ozonation of the environment. The results of clinical studies indicate the high efficiency of the use of the removal of dental plaque using low-frequency ultrasound using an ozonized contact medium in the treatment of chronic generalized catarrhal gingivitis. The treatment carried out using this method contributed to the elimination of inflammation, the normalization of blood circulation in the gums. 3 months after the treatment, the achieved effect was preserved, which was confirmed by the data of clinical and functional research methods. Despite a slight increase in inflammation in the gums and a deterioration in microcirculation indicators, even a year after treatment, the indicators characterizing the degree of inflammatory and microcirculatory disorders in the gums retained significant differences compared to the values obtained before the treatment.
BACKGROUND: Inflammatory periodontal diseases in the world affect from 80 to 100% of the adult population, therefore, the issues of timely prevention of the development of destructive changes in periodontal tissues and the treatment of gingivitis in young people are of great practical importance. Currently, extensive research is being conducted in the field of periodontics, new methods of treatment are being proposed, but a wide arsenal of applied means is not always effective, its use often leads only to short-term improvement, therefore, the problem of treatment remains relevant and necessitates the development and improvement of means and methods that contribute to the relief of the inflammatory process and increase the remission period.
AIM: To investigate the effectiveness of removing dental plaque using low-frequency ultrasound and an ozonized contact medium in the treatment of catarrhal gingivitis of young people.
MATERIAL AND METHODS: 54 patients (age, aged 1822 years) of RUDN University were examined and treated for chronic generalized catarrhal gingivitis. All patients were divided into two groups of 27 people each. In the first group (control group), dental plaque was removed without ozonation of the contact medium. In the second group, dental deposits were removed with ozonation of the contact medium. Hygiene level was assessed using the Simplified Oral Hygiene Index. The intensity of inflammation was assessed using the papillarymarginalalveolar index.
RESULTS: The papilla bleeding index was used to assess bleeding gums. The resistance of capillaries to vacuum was determined according to the method of Kulazhenko using the auditory-verbal learning test-DESNA device. Rheoparodontograms were assessed qualitatively and quantitatively.
CONCLUSION: Removal of dental plaque using ozonized water as a contact medium helped reduce inflammation, normalize local blood circulation in the periodontium, lengthen the remission period, and stabilize the process.
BACKGROUND: Given the increasing number of local and general factors in the development of hyperesthesia symptoms, the problem of the prevention and treatment of dental hypersensitivity is becoming increasingly urgent.
AIM: To evaluate the clinical efficacy of toothpaste with low abrasiveness (relative dentin abrasivity 35) fluorides for sensitive teeth.
MATERIAL AND METHODS: Thirty-five patients were diagnosed with hyperesthesia of the hard tissues of the teeth. Patients used the proposed toothpaste containing RDA 35, aminofluoride, and sodium fluoride. Hyperesthesia was determined before brushing, immediately after brushing, after 1 week, and after 1 month of using the studied toothpaste. Hyperesthesia was determined using a stream of air (Schiff test) and irritation with a dental probe (WongBecker scale).
RESULTS: After 1 month of using the toothpaste, 97.1% (n=34) of the patients showed a decrease in dental sensitivity according to the Schiff test and 100% (35) according to the WongBecker scale.
CONCLUSION: The presented toothpaste helps reduce hyperesthesia of hard dental tissues in 100% of cases within a month of its use.
