Abstract

Efficiency of bioactive osteoplastic composition HA-phage at a surgical stage of combined treatment of chronic generalized periodontitis was examined. The results obtained in the control and experimental groups proved that HA-phage allows reducing the time of treatment and to achieve remission of the disease. Out of 92 patients with chronic generalized periodontitis 52 undertook microplasmic scalpel-irradiator in complex treatment. The treatment course comprises 3-5 procedures. The quantity of manipulations is determined by the pathological process. Before and after the treatment the radiographic investigations were carried out in persons of both groups. 18 months later after the operation a bone regeneration was shown in 87,8% cases in the investigated group and 60,1%--in the control group patients. The therapy has shown positive results. So, the new method of treatment of chronic generalized periodontitis may prove to be more practical in clinical dentistry. Currently, it is possible to isolate highly purified BMSSCs from bone marrow using STRO-1. The management of periodontal defects has been an ongoing challenge in clinical periodontics. This is mainly a result of the fact that the tissues which comprise the periodontium, t...Continue Reading
