Prophylaxis of dental caries in children from polluted regions

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. There is evidence that anthropogenic and technological pollutions cause a considerable number of health problems and stomatological in particular. This article demonstrates the results gained by administration of vitamin-macro element complex “Calcinova” and sorbent “Enterosgel” in correction of enzymes responsible for biotransformation of xenobiotics in blood serum of children from the polluted areas. It has been established the high efficiency of recommended scheme on caries prophylaxis that is proved by positive biochemical indexes in blood serum of this children observed 30 month after the beginning of the investigation. As a result of the introduced prophylaxis, we have noticed the significant improvement of biochemical indexes in children with tooth decay. The findings reflect a certain rise in activity of enzymes responsible for elimination of xenobiotics such as alcohol-dehydrogenase (ADH) and glutathione-S-transferase (GST) obtained from the blood serum of children from the main group comparing to the control group.
