Abstract

Introduction. Oxidative stress is a non-specific pathogenetic link in inflammatory diseases of the oral mucosa, which has a destructive effect on its structure and function. In this regard, natural antioxidants such as (p-tyrosol) are of great interest to researchers. The purpose of this paper was to study the effect of p-tyrosol on the morphofunctional changes in the microcirculatory during experimental stomatitis. Materials and methods. The experiment was carried out on 72 Wistar rats with experimental stomatitis. The animals were divided into four groups, each including 18 subjects: the control (intact rats; group 1 with the burn and no treatment (group 2), with the burn and subsequent administration of p-tyrosol (group 3), and with the burn and subsequent administration of Lidocaine + Chamomile flower extract (group 4). Results. The animals of group 3 had the smallest values of the altered vessels, the precapillary diffusion index and the Kernogan index on days 3, 7, and 12. On the contrary, the numerical density of the unchanged arterioles, venules, and capillaries was the greatest. VEGF expression was detected in group 3 on days 7 and 12, and in group 4, on day 12, thus indicating a more intense angiogenesis. Conclusion. On the background of p-tyrosol administration, there is an increased blood supply in the treated area due to the following factors: a growing density of unchanged microvessels, the germination of the ves-sels in the treated area, and induced angiogenesis.
