Abstract
Aim. The study aims at enhancing the therapeutic effect and reducing the duration of treatment by using a solution of titanium dioxide in ozonated distilled water for antiseptic treatment of periodontal tissues. Material and Methods. Treatment results of local inflammatory changes of periodontal tissues in 128 patients (73 female, 55 male aged 21-65 years) were analyzed and classified by the severity of periodontal disease as: gingivitis, primary and moderate periodontitis. Schemes of medical actions differed in pharmacotherapy. In order to ascertain the most effective approach, the results of conventional and developed treatment complexes were compared. Results and Discussion. Digital indicators of the periodontal tissues condition following treatment presented common positive dynamic in all patients. However, significantly better results were obtained by using the developed method. According to the dynamics of bleeding index values, the proposed treatment regimens allow achieving more effective control over the inflammatory process. Digital indicators of hygiene showed that a better effect was reached after the suggested method - the dynamics of reducing the depth of periodontal pockets demonstrated clearer and statistically better results. Changes in the pH of the gingival fluid in a severe inflammatory condition indicated a considerable improvement after using the suggested treating method. X-ray data demonstrated the stability of digital values in the observation groups before and after treatment, which was interpreted as a sufficient control of destructive processes. Conclusion. Mathematical analysis of the presented data demonstrates the benefits of the developed method for the treatment of periodontal diseases, especially in non-surgical treatment regimens. The performed research confirms greater effectiveness of the therapeutic method in initial lesions, and thus it proves the efficiency of complex control for preventive purposes
Highlights

Summary
Modern highly scientific and practical achievements in the periodontology branch are undeniable. Various medications of general and local actions (antibiotics, antiseptics, analgesics, etc.) are used for the treatment of inflammatory soft tissue diseases. These drugs can cause addiction of the microflora and develop resistance to antibacterial medications, provoke allergy and other side effects, as well as changes in immune reactivity and non-specific protective factors [5]. In this regard, methods that have a multifaceted effect (along with local) on the patient's body, and as a result, have minimal number of side effects are perticularly attractive. The bactericidal potential of ozonated distilled water is comparable to that of 0.2% chlorhexidine solution [7]
