Biochemical indexes of mineral metabolismin patients from the polluted regionaffected by chronic periodontitis

Abstract

To be living at the most advanced technological area in history is to exist and face pollution one of the most serious threats to all living things on the planet. It is a well known fact that industrial pollutions cause a considerable number of health problems and stomatological in particular. This article demonstrates the results of our study regarding investigation ofsome biochemical indexes in children and adults from the polluted area. We have examined 1236 scholars and 133 workers of Burstyn Thermoelectric Station. The findings suggest that the prevalence of stomatological disorders reaches up to 84,2–93,5% in all examined, the statistic shows also that 31,6 % of six year old children have decayed teeth, in 12 year old children this index is more than 76,8% and almost 92,3% in those aged15–17years. Symptoms of periodontal disorders were observed in 37,1–78,3% of children, the orthodontic pathology was diagnosed in 43,9–61,2% of all examined scholars. People that work at the Burstyn Thermoelectric Station are affected by periodontal pathology and demonstrated disordered mineral metabolism in the blood serum and oral liquid with decreased level of Calcium and increased amount of Phosphates.
