Abstract
Relevance. The incidence of oral mucosal diseases is nowadays increasing. Inflammatory periodontal diseases are common in dental practice and occupy second place worldwide among oral diseases.Purpose. The study aimed to analyze ‘Denta Balance’, an oral synbiotic complex, and ‘Lesnoy balsam’, a mouthwash, as home care products treating inflammatory periodontal diseases and halitosis.Material and methods. The study included 40 patients aged 18 to 28 y.o., of which 10 were males (25%) and 30 females (75%). They randomly formed two groups. The age in Group 1 was 23.0 ± 2.5 years and in Group 2 – 24.0 ± 3.2 years. In all patients, we assessed the Fedorov-Volodkina hygiene index and papilla bleeding index (PBI, Saxer & Mühlemann, 1975) before and after oral care product use. All patients formed two groups, 20 patients in each group. The fi group used a spray and powder for oral administration containing synbiotic complex; Group 2 used a natural-phytoncide mouthwash as an oral care product. Besides dental status assessment, we conducted a survey where we collected dental history. The main survey criteria were tooth sensitivity, halitosis, dry mouth, tenderness around the gums, bleeding on brushing, eating or spontaneous bleeding. We also asked the patients to assess the one-month effect of synbiotic-complex products and natural-phytoncide mouthwash.Results. The use of products showed a positive effect in both groups, i.e., tenderness around the gums, tooth sensitivity, and halitosis disappeared; bleeding on brushing and spontaneous bleeding significantly decreased; the gum colour returned to normal. The dental status index assessment confirmed the effectiveness of the treatment: the hygiene index insignificantly improved after the treatment; periodontal indices changed for the better.Conclusion. The study noticed a positive effect of Denta balance, a spray with a probiotic for bleeding gums, and Denta balance FRESHeffect, a probiotic for fresh breath, included in the protocol of inflammatory periodontal disease and halitosis treatment.
