Abstract:
Forty-two patients with chronic generalized periodontitis were treated. Thirty-five patients presented with exacerbation of the disease of second-third degree of severity, clinically manifesting with hyperemia, edema of the gingival mucosa with pyorrhea from the gingivodental pouches, and mobility of teeth of the second-third degree; exacerbation of the process with abscesses round 1-2 teeth was observed in 4 patients, abscesses in the periodontal bone in 2, and edematous hypertrophic gingivitis in 1 patient. All patients were treated with vilprafene. Pyorrhea ceased, hyperemia and edema of the gingival mucosa resolved after treatment in 39 (92.8%) patients.
