Abstract

According to the results of endodontic treatment of chronic forms of odontotis and periodontitis the rate of complications continues to be high - from 32% to 50% that os related to characteristics of microbial bio-film. The studies of this object in root canals and methods of eradication of bio-films are at their initial stage. The purpose of study is to provide a laboratory substantiation and evaluation of efficacy of complex effect of ultrasound processing and photo-activating disinfection of root of tooth in case of chronic forms of odontotis and periodontitis and also evaluation of endodontic treatment using scanning electronic microscopy. The micro-flora of root canals was examined using bacteriological method (4 bacterial and 2 fungous clinical isolates). The effect of ultrasound processing in complex with the system, photo-activating disinfection on micro-flora of root canal was evaluated using a bio-reactor. The analysis of bio-films of system of root canals of tooth in patients with chronic forms of odontotis (52 patients) and periodontitis (16 patients) are implemented using scanning electronic microscopy. The established availability of abundant microbial bio-film in orifices of dentinal tubules and obturation of den...Continue Reading
