The development of stomatitis is characterized by the appearance of oxidative stress, which is marked by an increase in the intensity of peroxide lipid oxidation processes, resulting in metabolic disturbance in oral mucosa. As a result, toxic substances accumulate and endogenic toxicity develops. Thus, correction of pathological processes in the oral mucosa with antioxidant medication enables to optimize the intensity of inflammation, shorten the period of catabolic phase and accelerate the regeneration. Extract of Geranium palustre herb as a dental film was used to reduce the intensity of processes of lipid peroxidation and endogenous intoxication. This treatment method enables to release an active substance from the drug locally and to provide optimal therapeutic effect. The efficacy of the experimental medication was studied in the dynamics of experimental ulcerative stomatitis development in rabbits. The experimental model of ulcerative stomatitis in animals was induced with a burn method. For the experiment, the animals were divided into 2 groups: control group, where treatment was not performed, and experimental group, where animals were treated by applying a dental film with Geranium palustre extract. The monitoring was conducted on the 3rd, 5th, 7th and 10th days of the experiment, which are key stages of healing.
During these periods, blood was taken under anesthesia from the auricular vein of each experimental animal. Dynamics of prooxidant processes was detected by the level of lipid hydroperoxides and malondialdehyde, and the level of endogenic toxicity by the content of middle molecules. Statistic processing of the obtained results of investigation was performed using personal computer with installed proper software package StatSoft Statistica 10. Reliable difference was considered р<0.05.
It has been shown that extract of Geranium palustre herb, as a dental film, has antioxidant properties, which are effectively reducing the intensity of lipid peroxidation processes. It should be mentioned that the content of lipid hydroperoxides and final product of lipid peroxidation processes – malondialdehyde – in experimental animals’ blood was statistically lower in all periods of investigation than in control group, where treatment was not performed. The obtained results show that higher inhibiting effect of experimental medication is marked during the final stage of lipid peroxide oxidation than during the initial stage.
As the result showed, the development of endogenic toxicity was observed in both groups and the highest indices were recorded at the peak of the inflammatory process on the third day of the experiment. Dynamics of middle molecules content shows that application of Geranium palustre extract, as a dental film, decreases this index during all investigated periods and reduces intoxication level in experimental animals.
Thus, application of dental film in stomatitis treatment enables to release medication directly into the damaged area, which significantly increases therapeutic effect of biologically active substances of Geranium palustre phytocomplex, and rapid absorption of the film in the oral cavity provides easy use. Considering efficacy, non-toxicity and availability of the investigated medication, the expediency of its application in dental practice for the treatment of stomatitis and other inflammatory diseases of the oral mucosa may be considered.
