Root resorption is a pathological process involving loss of hard dental tissues. It may occur as a consequence of dental trauma, orthodontic treatment, and bleaching, and occasionally it accompanies periodontal disease. Although the mechanism of resorption process is examined in detail, its etiology is not fully understood. Wide open apical foramen is more difficult to manage and the root canal may often overfill. In this report we present two cases of root resorption and describe means for its clinical management. We conclude that useful measure of a success or failure in managing root resorption is the persistence of the resorption process. It is a clear sign of an active ongoing inflammatory process and shows the clinical need for retreatment.

Relevance. Skeletal malocclusion stands at the head of all oral diseases and is encountered in 32-35% of children and adolescents in Russia [7;12;15]. The number of malocclusions has increase due to various reasons, one of which is early extraction of deciduous carious teeth resulting in impaired vertical dimension and occlusion of teeth [1;14]. Diagnosis with due regard to caries resistance degree and planning of respective operative and orthodontic treatment are indispensable in children with skeletal malocclusion. Purpose – to increase effectiveness of functional treatment of malocclusion in children with various degree of caries resistance.Materials and methods. There were examined 108 patients aged between 6 and 16 with Class I malocclusion according to Angle, abnormal arch-to-arch relationship and tooth position and various degree of caries resistance. 4 groups were formed: high, sufficient mean, decreased mean and low caries resistance of dental enamel. Intensity of carious process was detected in all patients before and after orthodontic treatment. The effectiveness of reminerlization administered by removable orthodontic appliances was evaluated by electrometrical testing of hard dental tissue. Surface EMG was used to assess normalization of tone of maxillofacial muscles in children by average amplitude of biopotentials of superficial masseter and temporalis muscles.Results. Сhanges in caries intensity in children after treatment with removable orthodontic aligners indicate the necessity for remineralization of hard dental tissues during orthodontic treatment and it is confirmed by decrease of electroconductivity of enamel in children with sufficient mean, decreased mean and low degree of dental enamel caries resistance. Increase of biopotential mean amplitude during «total mastication» for masseter and temporal muscles confirms effectiveness of preformed elastic positioner along with myodynamic exercises.Conclusions. The conducted study proves the necessity of comprehensive approach with procedures  increasing the degree of caries resistance of hard dental tissues during orthodontic treatment of skeletal malocclusion in children.

With the development of the modern concept of tissue engineering approach and the discovery of the potential of stem cells in dentistry, the regeneration of hard dental tissues has become a reality and a priority of modern dentistry. The present review reports the recent advances on stem-cell based regeneration strategies for hard dental tissues and analyze the feasibility of stem cells and of growth factors in scaffolds-based or scaffold-free approaches in inducing the regeneration of either the whole tooth or only of its component structures.

Background. Periodontal tissues inflammatory diseases are widespread among young people. Objective. This study was aimed at elaborating the method to assess risks of periodontal inflammatory diseases and determining its efficacy depending on the state of dental tissues, gum tissues and sex.          Methods. The study included 182 students (93 men, 89 women) aged 19-29: 22 individuals had no lesions of hard dental tissues and no signs of periodontal disease; 51 individuals were found to have DMF index <6; 52 individuals – DMF index ≥6; 57 individuals were diagnosed with chronic catarrhal gingivitis. Primary groups were formed in autumn; re-examination was carried in spring. The research participants were assessed for detection of risks of periodontal inflammatory disease by the method developes by the authors (Patent UA 54041). Results. The study revealed that the risk of development of preiodontitis increases in individuals with high caries and gingivitis intensity. In spring, more individuals suffer from microbial imbalance in in the composition of gingival sulcus fluid and decrease in the mean stability coefficient value that indicates an increased risk of inflammatory periodontal disease development. Women were less likely to experience seasonal dysbiotic changes in the gingival sulcus fluid composition compared with men. Conclusions. The method suggested for assessment of the risk of periodontal inflammatory diseases is of high informativeness. It allows clinicians detecting early pre-nosological signs of oral microbiocenosis imbalance that enhances the effectiveness of early diagnosis of inflammatory periodontal diseases.

Aim. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of Er:YAG laser used for treating hard dental tissue in patients with epidermolysis bullosa (EB).Methods. We report two cases of EB in which an Er:YAG laser was used for conservative treatments. In the first case, the Er:YAG laser (2,940 μm, 265 mJ, 25 Hz) was used to treat caries on a deciduous maxillary canine in an 8-year-old male patient affected by dystrophic EB. In the second case, we treated a 26-year-old female patient, affected by junctional EB, with generalized enamel hypoplasia, and an Er:YAG laser (2,940 μm, 265 mJ, 25 Hz) was used to remove the damaged enamel on maxillary incisors.Results. The use of the Er:YAG laser, with the appropriate energy, was effective in the selective removal of carious tissue and enamel hypoplasia. During dental treatment with the Er:YAG laser, patients required only a few interruptions due to the absence of pain, vibration, and noise.Conclusions. Laser treatment of hard dental tissues is a valuable choice for patients affected by EB since it is less invasive compared to conventional treatment, resulting in improved patient compliance.
