Aim. To study the effect of antiseptic sorption dressing “Vita Wallis” on the course of the wound process in acute purulent inflammatory diseases of the oral cavity.Materials and methods. We have conducted a cytological examination of 30 patients with the acute odontogenic purulent inflammatory process of the oral cavity. Among them were 17 men (56,7%) and 13 women (43,3%). The patients were divided into two clinical groups equally. Cytological research was carried out on the specimen preparations, which were taken by putting slides to the purulent wounds on the 1st, third and fifth days of the postoperative period.Results and discussion. The cytological study showed that the wound process had a distinct phase character on the first day after the operation in both groups. On the third and fifth day decrease of neutrophils, number was observed in the wounds (control group - from 65,0 to 90,5% and 56,0 to 66,0%, the main group - 52,0 to 80,5% and 40,0 to 53,0%). During this period, the number of epithelial cells in the main group patients increased more than threefold compared with the control group; it varied from 25.0 to 33.5%.Conclusion. Application of antiseptic sorption material “Vita Vallis”, in comparison with the conventional method of treatment, cleanses purulent wounds more intensively, contributing to the intensified migration of inflammatory infiltrate cells and further regeneration in the damaged area.
