Comparative clinical evaluation of the effectiveness of treatment of traumatic lesions of the oral mucosa

Abstract

Relevance. Treatment of traumatic lesions of the oral mucosa in individuals who use removable acrylic dentures is a pressing problem in dentistry.The goal is a comparative assessment of the treatment of traumatic prosthetic stomatitis in patients using acrylic dentures with the use of various drugs for local use.Material and methods. A comparative clinical observation of the treatment of traumatic prosthetic stomatitis in 52 people aged 61 to 79 years, using removable acrylic prostheses, with the use of local adhesive Solcoseril® dental adhesive paste (1 group) and gum gel with propolis ASEPTA® (group 2 ). To ensure the comparability of the obtained results and their reliability, a semi-quantitative method was used for visual assessment of the effectiveness of treating traumatic prosthetic stomatitis, which was assigned to each of the symptoms observed in patients that indicate the absence or severity of clinical symptoms.The results of the study. Methods have been developed for determining the severity of traumatic prosthetic stomatitis and methods for assessing the effectiveness of its treatment, based on consideration of the most significant clinical symptoms of this pathology. It was established that on day 10 in group 1 of the study, the effectiveness of treatment was 82,1%, in group 2 – 81,17%.Findings. A high effcacy of selected agents for the local treatment of traumatic lesions of the oral mucosa of prosthetic etiology has been shown.
