SCREENING APPROACHES TO IDENTIFYING PATHOLOGY OF EXRAPYRAMIDAL SYSTEM IN OUT-PATIENT DENTAL PRACTICE

It was found that the main clinical symptoms of maxillofacial area that may have a certain level of specificity in detection of this disease are - moderate to severe periodontitis (pi by russel 3,8±0,21), dominance of microflora (tannerella forsythensis) in periodontal pockets; sialorrhoea and changes in microelement salivary composition; decrease of discriminatory sensitivity of the tongue and buccal mucosa on the side of the primary motor disorders.
