SPESEFIC CHANGES IN SALIVA CONTENT IN ORAL SOFT TISSUE LESIONS IN YOUNG SCHOOL-AGED CHILDREN

Аннотация

The high level of dental morbidity of the child population remains an urgent general medical and social problem. It is known that dental caries and its complications, being chronic foci of oral infection, can lead to premature tooth loss, as well as contribute to the development of focal-conditioned diseases. At the same time, despite the active development of therapeutic measures for patients with dental caries, some problems of its prevention remain unresolved. It should be noted that knowledge of the quantitative and qualitative characteristics of the composition and properties of mixed saliva in school-age children is important in improving the effectiveness of preventive measures. It should be noted that dental caries has a polyfactorial genesis, which is associated with the aggressive effects of exogenous and endogenous factors.
