[The morphofunctional changes in the periodontal tissues in cardiovascular pathology]. / Morfofunktsional'nye izmeneniia v tkaniakh parodonta pri serdechno-sosudistoi patologii.

Five rheoparodontographic curve types were distinguished, characterizing the severity of periodontal condition and the underlying disease. Morphologic examinations have revealed specific features of involvement of the periodontal regional hemomicrocirculation bed, leading to disorders in energy metabolism and development of circulatory and tissue hypoxia. The detected changes result in rapid progress of the pathologic process in periodontal tissues and should be paid special attention to when planning the treatment strategy.
