ABSTRACT
As the result of clinical-lab study of 40 oral fluid parameters in 176 patients new block of data was received disclosing key pathogenetic links of chronic generalized parodontitis (CGP) to which could be attributed endocrine dysfunction with cortisol level reduction and free thyroid hormones increase, enforcing prooxidant processes with multiple iron content increase. As the result of it molecules of medium mass were accumulated; protein spectrum, protein coupling capacity, content of collagenous C-peptide, osteocalcine, Ca, P and Mg were changing. In comprehensive CGP treatment due to Natursyl (lipophilic fraction of holy thistle) applications the disease clinical signs disappeared quicker and biochemical markers normalized.

The parameters of oral homeostasis were studied in patients with acute pneumonia before and after therapy. The redox potential, a shift of pH towards the acid values, decreased content of total protein, total and effective concentrations and reserve of albumin binding, and a drastic increase of toxicity index were detected. Analysis of oral fluid showed increased level of ionized calcium, nitrate anion, and decreased content of magnesium and ammonium cations.

Gingival disease was induced in 18 dogs aged 2-3 years, b.m. 4-6 kg. Gingival grooves of experimental animals (n = 12) were exposed to ultrasound (US) through furacilin solution (1:5000), the gap between needle waveguide and tissues being 1-2 mm. In 6 reference animals the tissues were treated by the routine procedure. Time course of reparative processes was followed up on days 1, 7, 14, 30, and 60 after US session. Experiments have demonstrated the efficacy of low-frequency US in gingival diseases as against the routine treatment: reparative processes normalized on the 7th day after exposure to US.
