NEW APPROACHES TO THE PREVENTION AND TREATMENT OF PARADONTAL DISEASES

Аннотация

The main problem of modern dentistry is the treatment and prevention of periodontal and oral mucosa diseases occurring against the background of somatic pathology. In recent years, much attention has been paid to the study of the mechanisms of innate immunity of the oral mucosa, an important component of which are endogenous antimicrobial peptides. It is possible that compensation for the deficiency of endogenous antimicrobial peptides will significantly increase the effectiveness of the prevention and pharmacotherapy of periodontal and oral mucosa diseases.
