The article is dedicated to the study of the efficacy of the periapical therapy of chronic periodontitis with the use of synthetic calcium-phosphate biomaterial. 30 patients aged from 22 to 56 years participated in a clinical study. Radiological evaluation was performed by radiovisiography and radiodensitometry. Follow-up examination was carried out at 3, 6 and 12 months. Densitometry indicators at the destruction site showed an increase in radiodensity from 74.2 ± 9.9 units (58.2%) to 111.9 ± 10.6 units (87.8%) after 12 months. Anterior group of teeth demonstrated statistically significant high rate of lesion compaction compared to posterior teeth.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
