THE STUDY OF THE USE OF AN ERBIUM LASER FOR SURGICAL TREATMENT OF ROOT CYSTS OF THE JAWS

Аннотация

The problem of surgical treatment of patients with odontogenic root cysts (periodontal ligament) remains relevant to this day. This is due to the high frequency of this disease. Periodontal root cysts account for about 86% of all odontogenic cysts and 7-15% of all diseases of the maxillofacial region. In addition, the urgency of the problem of treating patients with odontogenic jaw cysts is due to the possible development of complications of surgical treatment (cystectomy or cystotomy) using cutting or rotating tools: damage to neighboring anatomical structures, infection, suture divergence and disease recurrence - all this leads to long-term treatment [1-6 ]. Despite the extensive arsenal of surgical methods and medications used to treat patients with this disease, this problem is not considered to be completely solved.
