The state of periodontal tissues was assessed using a simplified hygiene index (OHI-S, GREEN, VERMILLION), probing bleeding index (BOP), papillary-marginal-alveolar index (PMA), index of need for periodontal disease treatment (CPITN).
Results: Patients of the main group showed a positive dynamics of changes in the indices characterizing the state of the periodontium, with a significant difference in indicators compared to the control group.
