RESUMO
The aim of the study was to evaluate clinical efficiency of oral hygiene agents Mexidol Dent (Farmasoft) for prevention of oral mucosa diseases. Eighty-three xerostomia patients (55 female and 28 male) aged 44 to 62 years were included in the study and divided in 4 groups according to oral hygiene agents: toothpaste Mexidol Dent Fito (20 patients), mouthwash Mexidol Dent Professional (23 patients), both toothpaste and mouthwash (21 patients) and control group of 19 patients who were free to choose their own oral hygiene means. After one year of the study in the experimental groups oral mucosa disorders were revealed in 9.6% of cases, which is 2.7 times lower than in control group.

Efficacy of course use of chewing gum for alveolar bone reinforcement was studied with the use of digital X-ray-graphy at three levels of interalveolar bone in 93 patients with clinically different periodontal tissue conditions. It was established that optical density of alveolar bone is higher on the working side than on the inactive side and it depended upon clinical status of periodontal tissues. Top of the interalveolar bone had the lowest density, the middle part - the highest. Course use of chewing gum in the optimal regimen increased interalveolar bone optical density, at that to a greater extent on the inactive side and in the upper part of it.
