[The results of treating exacerbated chronic periodontitis using sorbents].

The authors claim that sorbents effectively discontinue an acute inflammatory process, are conducive to the creation of active drainage in the periodontium and to a reduction of the incidence of complications. They recommend therapy with sorbents for the treatment of exacerbations of chronic periodontitis.

[Age-related characteristics of the surface bioelectrical potential of human, canine and rat teeth and features of its distribution over the surface of the crown].

Using a digital electron voltmeter, bioelectrical potentials (BEPs) of dental crowns have been recorded in 180 patients, 36 dogs, and 93 white non-inbred rats. It has been established that the surface BEP is a marker of dental enamel maturation and does not depend on the species of mammals. On the other hand maturation processes differ in their rate on the cutting edge, equator, and neck: with advancing age algebraic difference between the magnitudes of surface BEPs decreases in humans and increases in dogs and rats.
