The urgency of this work is conditioned with the necessity to study dental health of children with dismetabolic nephropathy influenced by toxic environmental factors. The purpose of the study was to explore the prevalence and intensity of dental caries and periodontal tissue diseases in children suffering from dismetabolic nephropathy and living in different environmental conditions. To clarify the goals and objectives of the study there were examined 356 children aged 6–15 years with dismetabolic nephropathy living in different environmental conditions. Analysis of the survey results showed that in children with dismetabolic nephropathy who live in ecologically unfavorable region there is a high prevalence (91.56±2.15%) and intensity (7.36±0.29 carious teeth) of the caries process, compared to the examined children with dismetabolic nephropathy from the clean region (81.48±3.34% and 6.37±0.25 carious tooth? respectively) and compared to physically healthy children (73.60±3.96% and 4.87±0.22 carious tooth, respectively), and was recorded also a higher incidence of complicated forms of caries (18.69±1.25 17.16±1.21 against and 13.84±1.22%, respectively). The prevalence of the periodontal tissues diseases in children with dismetabolic nephropathy from the ecologically adverse region was 1.6 times higher than in children with dismetabolic diseases of kidneys who live in ecologically clean regions.

The article is devoted to studying of periodontal tissues in children with sensory deprivation of vision and conventionally healthy children in the city of Krasnoyarsk. A clinical examination was performed for children with impaired vision from special (correctional) remedial educational institutions type III and IV for blind and visually challenged children aged 5—18. The hygienic condition of the oral cavity was evaluated using the hygiene index by Fedorov-Volodkina, while the severity of gingivitis was studied via the papillary marginal alveolar index (PMA). The condition of periodontal tissues was assessed based on the complex periodontal index (CPI). Comparative assessment of the data obtained from children with sensory deprivation of vision and conventionally healthy children was carried out. The children with vision pathology were revealed to have the highest frequency of periodontal tissue diseases as well as a higher risk of such diseases than that in the conventionally healthy children, which shows the necessity of individual preventive dental procedures for this category of subjects.

Pregnancy is a critical period for a woman's dental health and is characterized by changes in the level and structure of oral diseases. The course of pregnancy is a significant psycho-emotional, immunological and metabolic burden for the female body. Complex psycho-physiological changes in the body during pregnancy are accompanied by pronounced disorders of the oral cavity. The aim of the study was to study the dynamics of periodontal tissue damage during pregnancy and to identify the peculiarities of different methods of prophylactic and therapeutic and preventive measures. A comprehensive dental study was conducted in 170 pregnant women aged 18 to 40 years according to the WHO methodology. The results of the study indicate a significant prevalence (according to the PMA index) of periodontal pathology among pregnant women,the severity of which increases with age and gestational age (from 41.7% to 78.8%). The severity of disease (according to the CPITN index) was clinically characterized by bleeding gums (45.56%), dental plaque and calculus (30.55%), and periodontal pockets (13.57%). The highest incidence of inflammatory phenomena in periodontal tissues occurs in the second trimester, and the critical increase - in the third trimester, indicating the need for a differentiated approach in choosing the timing of preventive examinations of pregnant women and developing differentiated treatment and preventive programs based on the prevailing dental pathologies. Keywords: Pregnancy, periodontal pathology, dental status

As a result of the continuing changes in the condition of tissues and organs of the dental cavity and the body as a whole, there is a rise in the intensity of tooth decay and periodontal diseases with the onset of pregnancy. The aim of our research was to look into the prevalence and severity of pathology in the hard tissues of teeth and periodontal tissues during pregnancy, as well as to figure out how to better organize therapeutic and prophylactic steps for pregnant women. A comprehensive epidemiological study of 170 pregnant women aged 18 to 40 living in Tbilisi was carried out according to the WHO method. The findings show a high prevalence of dental cavity (from 61 percent to 98.8%) and a high severity of dental caries among pregnant women (from 2.55 1.03 to 14.31 5.44). The intensity of caries indicators increased as the gestational stage lengthened, but the greatest increase was observed in the second trimester of pregnancy. The results indicate a substantial prevalence of periodontal pathology (according to the PMA index) among pregnant women, with the level of pathology increasing with their age and gestational age (from 41.7 percent to 78.8 percent). By the end of the second trimester of pregnancy, the most noticeable improvements in periodontal tissues had been observed. Oral hygiene played a big role in determining the presence and incidence of periodontal disease. Low dental health indicators and worsening dental status during pregnancy point to the need for a more comprehensive diagnosis of all risk factors for major dental diseases, as well as the implementation of all stages of therapeutic and prophylactic interventions during pregnancy, based on the findings of a complete dental examination.

The aim was to investigate the effect of fixed and removable space maintainers on periodontal status of children and to compare the efficiency of verbal and written dental health education. 52 healthy children aged between 7-10 years who will be treated with fixed or removable appliances were divided into two subgroups to whom were given verbal and written dental education. Plaque index, bleeding index and mean pocket depth scores of the teeth were recorded at baseline and 3, 6 and 9 months after application. Plaque, bleeding index and mean pocket depth scores showed significant difference in the appliance groups in the follow-ups. Plaque index scores displayed a positive correlation with the duration of both appliances. The difference between pocket depth scores were found to be significant in the follow-ups in both appliance groups while it was insignificant between education groups and significant increase in bleeding index scores was observed in both appliance groups and education techniques given. It is concluded that both removable and fixed space maintainers can result in inflammation on periodontal tissues of the children.

The aim of the work was the definition of informativeness of European indicators in a comprehensive assessment of the state of periodontal tissues in children of school age and identification possible relationships with behavioral risk factors for periodontal disease. Analytical dental epidemiology was employed, using the EGOHID-2005 system. Oral hygiene and dental caries were assessed in 12- 15-year-old children in Poltava city. The main determinants of periodontal tissue diseases were non-observance of children a recommended regime of brushing teeth and unhealthy habits. Systematic monitoring of major dental diseases allows to determine their tendencies and, using European system of indicators of dental health, allows to identify the risk factors to be eliminated in order to prevent periodontal tissue diseases.

Background: Findings of studies testing the association between smokeless tobacco (SLT) use and periodontal health have shown varying results in different populations. Considering the high prevalence of SLT use in India, the present study was conducted to understand the pattern of periodontal destruction within different areas of the dentition among SLT users. Methods: Age, gender, oral hygiene habits, the frequency and duration of SLT consumption, the type of SLT product used, and the site of retention of the SLT product in the oral cavity were recorded among 90 SLT users. Probing depth (PD), recession (REC), and clinical attachment loss (CAL) at SLT-associated and non SLT-associated teeth of the mandibular arch were compared based on the site of retention of the SLT product, the type of product used, and the duration of the habit. Results: REC and CAL were significantly higher at the SLT-associated zones compared to non SLT-associated zones and at both interproximal and mid-buccal sites of SLT-associated teeth. Among individuals who had the habit for more than 5 years and also among those who had the habit for 5–10 years, PD, REC, and CAL were significantly higher at SLT-associated teeth than at non SLT-associated teeth. Significantly greater periodontal destruction was observed at SLT-associated teeth among khaini users and gutkha users. Conclusions: Smokeless tobacco consumption resulted in greater destruction of periodontal tissues. The severity of periodontal destruction at SLT-associated sites differed depending on the type of smokeless tobacco used, the site of retention of the SLT, and the duration of the habit.

SUMMARYThis study begins to redress our lack of knowledge of the interactions between colonial hosts and their parasites by focusing on a novel host-parasite system. Investigations of freshwater bryozoan populations revealed that infection by myxozoan parasites is widespread. Covert infections were detected in all 5 populations studied and were often at high prevalence while overt infections were observed in only 1. Infections were persistent in populations subject to temporal sampling. Negative effects of infection were identified but virulence was low. Infection did not induce mortality in the environmental conditions studied. However, the production of statoblasts (dormant propagules) was greatly reduced in bryozoans with overt infections in comparison to uninfected bryozoans. Overtly-infected bryozoans also grew more slowly and had low fission rates relative to colonies lacking overt infection. Bryozoans with covert infections were smaller than uninfected bryozoans. High levels of vertical transmission were achieved through colony fission and the infection of statoblasts. Increased fission rates may be a strategy for hosts to escape from parasites but the parasite can also exploit the fragmentation of colonial hosts to gain vertical transmission and dispersal. Our study provides evidence that opportunities and constraints for host-parasite co-evolution can be highly dependent on organismal body plans and that low virulence may be associated with exploitation of colonial hosts by endoparasites.

The dental gingivae are a unique part of the oral anatomy and an integral part of the periodontal tissues. Although the vast majority of abnormalities affecting the gingival tissues are due to a simple inflammatory reaction directly related to the presence of dental plaque, a range of non-plaque-related conditions also occur due to either local or systemic factors. Such factors include developmental abnormalities, the presence of malignancy and manifestations of underlying systemic conditions. Recognition and diagnosis of non-plaque-related gingival disease is essential for comprehensive dental health care. CPD/Clinical Relevance: This paper provides a review of the spectrum of non-plaque-related conditions that can affect the dental gingivae.
