The staff of the department performed a clinical-experimental study of the effectiveness of the developed method of treatment of periodontal diseases in young people, which involves the use of drugs immobilized on sorbents, and local natural factors, in particular radon. Methods of prolonged action of drugs for local treatment and prevention of major dental diseases using adhesive compositions and physiotherapy methods have been developed. The staff of the department conducts epidemiological, laboratory, psychological, immunological, microbiological, functional methods of research. Conducted complex epidemiological and psychological examination of patients made it possible to assess the relationship of major dental diseases with the psycho-emotional state of patients. Criteria for evaluation of adaptive capabilities of lip hemodynamics using Doppler ultrasound have been developed. The staff of the department proposed new modern methods of assessing the supply of vitamins to dental patients. Thorough microbiological studies, conducted by the department's researchers, made it possible to assess the microbiocenosis of the oral cavity and red lip border and to develop effective methods of correction of the detected disorders. The department pays great attention to the research of non-specific resistance of the body of dental patients. Disorders of the adaptation state of patients, revealed during the examination, open new aspects of the pathogenesis of dental diseases and lead to the need for their rational correction in complex treatment. A comprehensive immunological examination of patients with diseases of the oral mucosa revealed a significant suppression of the specific resistance of the body of patients and became the reason for the development of immunocorrective therapy in such patients. The work has made it possible to develop and put into practice new methods of diagnostics and treatment of diseases of periodontium, mucous membrane of the oral cavity and red border of lips.

Established in somatically healthy men of Ukraine, regional indexes of frequency of superficial, middle and deep caries, chronic fibrous, granulating and granulomatous periodontitis, cystogranulom, cysts and chronic fibrous pulpitis, absence of teeth and crowns of teeth, and the condition of separate teeth of the lower teeth, as well as the indices of caries intensity, tooth enamel resistance to caries and oral hygiene are the basis for correct assessment of dental health status. tall in Ukraine. This is necessary to identify risk factors and create effective national and regional programs for the prevention of dental caries and its complications. Somatically healthy men of Ukraine have regional features of lesions of different groups of teeth with caries and its complications according to the dental and computed tomographic examination; indices of dental caries intensity (CPV), tooth enamel resistance to caries and level of oral hygiene without distribution and with distribution at different levels of CPV were determined. Доведено, що застосування конусно-променевої комп'ютерної томографії дозволяє більш коректно оцінити стан зубів, ніж стандартне клінічне стоматологічне обстеження.

 

It is determined that the dermatoglyphic picture of somatically healthy men of Ukraine is formed mainly due to the genetic contribution of persons with low and medium levels of CPV. The results obtained allowed us to develop prognostic mathematical models of the tendency to a certain level of intensity of dental caries, or resistance of tooth enamel to caries, depending on the established specificity of dermatoglyphic indicators. The results obtained confirm the objectivity of the use of dermatoglyphic indices as markers of the adverse course of dental caries, for predicting and carrying out treatment-and-prophylactic measures.
Obtained results of epidemiological, psychological, immunological and laboratory examination of patients became the basis for further research on the prediction of the development and course of major dental diseases, as well as finding ways to improve the effectiveness of treatment of dental patients.

The department also deals with caries prevention in pregnant women and women during lactation. The developed method of prevention showed high efficiency by the results of experimental and clinical and laboratory methods of research.
