RESULTS OF COMPLEX TREATMENT OF WAGOTONIA IN PATIENTS WITH CHRONIC COURSE OF GENERALIZED PERIODONTITIS

oral fluid increases in comparison with the control values in accordance with the severity of the pathological process in the periodontal tissues. The treatment of generalized periodontitis causes to a decrease in the MMP-8 in oral fluid. Prospects for further research. The obtained values of the concentration of MMP-8 in the oral fluid, as well as their dynamics, proved that this marker is indicative of the course of the inflammatory-destructive process in periodontal tissues, and therefore the possibility of its application for the diagnosis and monitoring of the results of treatment of generalized periodontitis.
