. Inflammatory diseases of periodontal tissue are one of the most prevalent worldwide. This pathology has a complex aetiology and ambiguous views on pathogenetic mechanisms; therefore, the approach to the assessment of periodontitis should be integrated. The aim of the study was to assess the state of periodontal tissues in patients with chronic generalized periodontitis class II and absent or compensated somatic pathology. Materials and methods. We examined 20 patients aged 35 to 45 years having a diagnosis of chronic generalized periodontitis class II who had no somatic pathologies or compensated somatic pathology. The patients underwent the assessment of their hygienic, gingival and periodontal indices, measuring the depth of periodontal pockets, the level of the gingival margin, loss of clinical attachment and bleeding during probing. Results. The average value of the Green-Vermillion hygienic index among the study group was 2.16, the papillary-marginal-alveolar index was 56%, and the periodontal Russell index was 3.4scores. The mean value of the depth of periodontal pockets was 3.75, and the loss of clinical attachment was 4.12. The average index of Müllemann's bleeding gums in the surveyed was 4.1. Conclusions. Аn integrated approach to assessing the state of periodontal tissues contributes to a better understanding of the epidemiology, characteristics of the course and predicting the consequences of chronic generalized periodontitis class II.
