CLINICAL ASSESSMENT OF PERIODONTAL TISSUES IN PATIENTS WITH PERIODONTITIS IN LVIV

Abstract

The purpose of this study. The study is devoted to the study of the condition of periodontal tissues in patients with varying degrees of periodontal tissue damage. Materials and methods. The study involved 63 patients aged 35-60 years with varying degrees of periodontal tissue damage who were examined at the dental clinic No. 1 in Lviv. Patients were divided into different age groups: 35-39, 40-49 and 50-60 years. The following indices were used to assess the condition of periodontal tissue : papillary-marginal-alveolar index PMA %; Schiller-Pisarev test; gum bleeding (Mulleman index). A statistically significant difference between alternative quantitative traits with a distribution corresponding to the normal law was estimated using the student’s t-test. The difference was considered statistically significant at p<0.01.the use of periodontal data is key in the preparation of treatment and prevention methods for individuals with different levels of damage. Research results. Analyzing the data, several observations can be made regarding the condition of periodontal tissues in patients with varying degrees of periodontal tissue damage. First, the difference in indicators between men and women in different age groups is noteworthy. The bleeding index also showed some features. Conclusions. The use of periodontal data is key in the preparation of treatment and prevention methods for people with different levels of damage. Based on the results of the study, it is possible to adapt approaches to prevention and treatment, taking into account the age and gender of the patient. From the results obtained, there is a need for a deeper study of the factors that affect periodontal tissues in patients with periodontitis.
