The effectiveness of complex conservative periodontal therapy using a gentle treatment technique by ultrasonic apparatus with calcium hydroxide polishing suspension among patients with type 1 diabetes and chronic generalized periodontitis

Abstract

Relevance: the presence of somatic disease is often the main and aggravating factor in development of chronic generalized periodontitis. Treatment of inflammatory periodontal diseases begins with mechanical removal of dental calculus and biofilm on a surface of the teeth. For this purpose along with traditional manual tools are applied sonic ultrasonic, and vibrascalers. Atraumatic and high efficiency of professional oral hygiene complex are extremely important for the treatment of periodontal disease in patients with diabetes. Purpose – to study the effectiveness of professional oral hygiene with use of the Vector apparatus in patients with type 1 diabetes. Materials and methods: this article presents study results of the effectiveness of the Vector ultrasound device use as part of therapeutic and preventive measures complex among 3 patients in different ages with generalized periodontitis and type 1 diabetes mellitus. We conducted a dental and X-ray examination and microbiological analysis of periodontal space contents. All patients underwent professional oral hygiene and Vector-therapy. Results were evaluated after 1 month. Results: using the example of 3 clinical cases, the effectiveness of professional oral hygiene complex was presented. After 4 weeks there were observed the reduction of patients complaints for bleeding gums when brushing teeth, improving hygienic and periodontal indices, reducing the composition and number of periodontal pathogens. Conclusion: treatment of inflammatory periodontal diseases using the Vector system is recommended as an early prevention of the development of a more severe periodontitis, as well as the most benign and minimally invasive treatment for periodontal diseases due to its high effectiveness.
