Unlabelled: The involvement of commensals and opportunistic pathogens and the role of protective mechanisms in the development of dental diseases in children with cystic fibrosis require more detailed study.
Aim: The aim of the study was to determine the ecological characteristics of the oral microbiota and some antimicrobial factors of saliva in children with mucoviscidosis.
Materials And Methods: The study involved an assessment of oral microbiota as complex ecological system that protects the human body from colonization by pathogenic flora in children with cystic fibrosis.
Background And Aims: Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is regarded as a potent stimulating factor for angiogenesis and vascular permeability and probably is connected with an inflammatory reaction. Our study aimed to determine the effect of VEGF in the inflammatory process in the oral mucosa of experimental animals in the modulation of atopic disease.
Materials And Methods: Atopic condition was simulated by the ovalbumin model.
Unlabelled: It is known that every day 2,500 children under the age of 18 try their first cigarette, and more than 400 of them become new, regular smokers, and half of them will die from this addiction in the future.
Aim: The aim of the study is to determine changes in the indices of dental status in adolescents with tobacco smoking.
Materials And Methods: The study involved 54 adolescents aged 12 to 18 years.

Background And Aims: Prevalence of atopic diseases is progressively increasing in children with unclear clinical picture in oral cavity. This study aimed to find correlation between the total antioxidant and periodontal status in the saliva of periodontally compromised with atopy.
Materials And Methods: The groups consisted of patients of atopic diseases and gingivitis (ADG), of atopic diseases without gingivitis (AD), and healthy controls (HC).
