USING GALIMETER IN DIAGNOSTICS OF INTRAORAL GALITIOSIS IN PERIODONT DISEASES

Abstract

Diagnosis of the level of halitosis (bad breath) is very important, because this may indicate pathology gastrointestinal tract, upper respiratory tract, endocrine system. The most common cause of its occurrence is oral disease. Objective. To determine the effectiveness of the treatment of periodontal disease, halitosis accompanied by a galimetr apparatus. Materials and Methods. The study involved 118 people with periodontal disease of varying severity, accompanied by periodontitis. In the study group underwent a comprehensive treatment of periodontal disease, accompanied by halitosis, with the inclusion of probiotic complex. The control group consisted of 58 people with periodontitis, accompanied by halitosis, did not receive the probiotic complex. Periodontal status was determined by Silness-Loe index Myullemana index, measuring the depth of periodontal pockets. halitosis level determined by galimetr apparatus. The data were processed using statistical methods. Results. After treatment in both groups showed improvement in the patient's mouth and a statistically significant change in the indicators characterizing it. The average depth of the periodontal pocket of the first group ofpatients has decreased by 2 mm (or 40%) patients of the second group of reduction was 1.9 mm (or 42.2%). After 6 weeks of treatment of halitosis level significantly decreased in both groups. In the first group to 67.7 (6.4 times), the second group - to 157.8 (2.8 times). Level halitosis patients in group 6 weeks after treatment was significantly lower than the patients of the second group of halitosis. The level of halitosis patients of the first group is 2.3 times lower than that of the second group ofpatients, demonstrating the effectiveness of the treatment. Conclusions. The use of probiotic complex in treatment of inflammatory periodontal diseases, accompanied by halitosis increases the efficiency of traditional therapy. A galimetr is a necessary tool to measure and evaluate the level of halitosis.
