Comparative analysis of complex treatment effectiveness for patients with chronic catarrhal gingivitis on the basis of index evaluation and periodontal hemodynamic indicators
Aim of the study was to evaluate the effectiveness of some treatment methods for patients with chronic catarrhal gingivitis carried out on the basis of clinical indices dynamics and ultrasonic Doppler flowmetry data. Materials and methods. 45 patients aged from 25 to 55 years there were under observation? Among them there were 30 with chronic catarrhal gingivitis, signs of which persisted from 1 to 3 years and 15 patients with intact periodontium as a comparison group to record changes in periodontal tissue microcirculation indicators. Microcirculation of periodontal tissues was evaluated by ultrasound Doppler device «minimax Doppler». The objective clinical evaluation of periodontal tissues was carried out with the use of periodontal indices. Result. The positive effect of ozone on the inflammatory process in periodontal tissues was determined.
