Abstract
The aim of the work was an assessment of the morphological structure and chemical composition of dental hard tissues in persons suffering from chronic kidney disease and the effectiveness of remineralizing therapy in them. The study of the morphological structure and chemical composition of dental hard tissues in individuals suffering from chronic kidney disease and the effectiveness of 6 weeks of remineralizing therapy in the course of individual oral hygiene in combination with the intake of vitamin-mineral complex was conducted by means of ABT-55 electron microscope (Japan) combined with a LinkAN-10 000/S85 microprobe (United Kingdom) in comparison with persons without somatic pathology. It has been established that in people suffering from chronic kidney disease dental hard tissues morphological features were determined by their pathological changes due to carious process or non-carious lesions. In chronic kidney disease a significant decrease in the level of mineralization in both enamel and dentin was found, which was most pronounced in patients with chronic renal failure and did not depend on whether they received hemodialysis. The use of remineralizing therapy in people with chronic kidney disease within the framework of individual oral hygiene combined with a vitamin-mineral complex intake for 6 weeks significantly contributed to an increase in the Ca/P ratio in tooth enamel and may be seen as a useful tool for prevention of dental hard tissues pathology in the patient's group.
