INTRODUCTION: The current stage of development of dental implantology permits to perform a complete dental rehabilitation even in complicated clinical situations. However, there are some difficulties which prevent achievement of a high success of implantological treatment in certain somatic pathologies that manifest in the form of systemic inflammation, and present relative contraindications for implantation. Important general somatic pathologies include chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, atherosclerosis, non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, osteoporosis, etc., they are associated with the risk of acute inflammatory response of an organism to surgical implantological intervention. The risk of unpredictable complications also increases because of insufficiently wide laboratory diagnostic spectrum for planning dental implantation that includes a biochemical blood test, coagulogram, reaction to the presence of specific infections and viral diseases. This list of diagnostic data is not always sufficient for a complete prognosis of success of planned treatment in patients with a complicated general somatic or dental status. Besides, the interrelation between dental chronic diseases and general somatic pathologies which in some cases have common etiopathogenetic factors, is often not taken into account, but without the adequate diagnostic range they often remain unnoticed and lead to persistent complications in different periods after completion of treatment. Development of technologies of surgical and orthopedic dentistry permits to provide full dental care to patients even with different pathologies of organs and systems. But in this case, of importance is extended laboratory diagnostics aimed at identification of factors of chronic systemic inflammation, vascular risk, bacterial threats, for example, evaluation of some interleukins, tumor necrosis factor, C-reactive protein.
CONCLUSION: A complex of clinical, laboratory and instrumental diagnostic methods will permit to adequately evaluate risk for treatment failure and construct a prognostic tactics of complex therapy, thereby reducing the probability for unpredictable complications in dental implantation in patients with different somatic pathologies.
