Correction of disordered oral immunity in children affected by dental caries with herbal immune modulator “Esberitox”

Abstract

Dental caries is the most prevalent pathological condition in the child population of Ukraine. Despite the achievements of medical science, dental caries in children remains one of the most actual problems nowadays. Epidemiological investigations conducted in different regions of Ukraine demonstrate that 62% of children have decay and in many parts of the country the statistic is even higher up to 96.5% when the intensity of carious damage fluctuates between 3.2 to 7.2 teeth. This article reflects the results of the study regarding correction of disordered oral immunity indexes by immune modulator “Esberitox” in children affected by different caries activity. We have confirmed the high efficiency of the recommended scheme of caries prophylaxis that is proved by positive dynamic of oral immunological indexes observed 24 month after the beginning of the research. There was a certain rise of lysozyme by about 21.1% and s-IgA has increased by 28% in children from prophylactic groups in comparison with control groups.

Antimicrobial management of dental infections: Updated review

“…[10] Antibiotics are often used during dental operations to treat prophylactic, local, focal, odontogenic, and non-odontogenic infections. [11] Odontogenic infections are the most frequent, affecting periodontal and dental structures such as dental caries, pericoronitis, periodontitis, pulpitis, or pulpal necrosis. [12] non-odontogenic infections start in extra-dental structures such as mucous glands, tongue, paranasal sinus, and sialadenitis.…”
