The article is devoted to the issue of early orthopaedic rehabilitation of youngest preschool children with ectodermal dysplasia and congenital edentulism. The essence and details of children’s psychophysiological development at this age are revealed, as well as main pedagogical tools making it possible to adapt the children to the specific environment of the dental clinic and motivate them for undergoing long-term multistage orthopaedic dental treatment. Clinical approaches and peculiarities in the dentist’s work with children of different psychological types as well as particular aspects in their adaptation to removable dentures are described. Two clinical cases of effective orthopaedic rehabilitation of 3-years-old children with ectodermal dysplasia and congenital edentulism using full removable lamellar dentures.

Subject. Diseases of the cardiovascular system are characterised by oral cavity manifestations which possible has inverse relationships. Prevalence and features of hard oral tissues, mucosa of the oral cavity and periodontium in cardiovascular patients is investigated. Aim — to form a list of main trends and scientific practical prospects related to cardiovascular diseases and dental pathology. Methods. In order to perform analysis of the studied topic, a review of 30 periodicals dated 2007-2019 was performed. Results. The analysis of Russian and foreign scientific literature resulted in formulation of three main groups of dental diseases with peculiarities in manifestations if IHD and HD: 1. Diseases of hard oral tissues; 2. Diseases of the mucous coat of the oral cavity; 3. Periodontium tissue diseases. Examination of oral cavity hygienic condition in CVD patients showed worse values in comparison with the control group. A major emphasis is placed on the role of C-reactive protein and the role of systemic inflammation in dental and cardiovascular pathology. Also, there is data regarding treatment of periodontium tissues and its influence on the cardiovascular system. Inverse interaction was noted: intake of medicines against the main pathology exerted influence on the oral cavity condition. Conclusion. The performed review of Russian and foreign literature makes it possible to conclude that the data presented is insufficient to draw any firm conclusion. Of principal interest are periodontium tissue diseases and their correlation with general somatic pathology, indicative of which is a significant number of practical researches devoted to this issue. However, the data analysed are of controversial character and do not make it possible to form a single trajectory for management of such patients and assessment of not only dental but also general somatic status of the patient.

Based on literature data, this article reviews a range of problems associated with hygienic care after obturation prostheses and the oral cavity after combined treatment of malignant neoplasms. At the present time, replacing prosthetic care after maxillary resection due to malignant neoplasms using obturator prostheses is the main method for rehabilitation of oncological patients. Such methods as dental prosthetic care based on dental implants and removable dentures for elimination of partial and complete edentulism is impossible in such conditions. A defect in the maxilla, an oronasal fistula, post-operative and post-radiation jaw contracture as well as hyposalivation, impair the hygiene of the oral cavity. Acrylic plastics used for production of obturator prostheses have such substantial flaws leading to development of inflammation and progression of atrophy in the supporting tissues of the basal seat. This reduces short-term and long-term efficacy of orthopaedic dental rehabilitation procedures after replacing dental prosthetics. A conclusion has been drawn on the necessity of development and practical introduction of a special complex of dental hygienic procedures — professional and individual — adapted for oncological patients that would be implemented within the framework of dynamic dispensary observation in the setting of a dental polyclinic.
