Abstract

The article presents a study of bone mineral density by DEXA and evaluated the effectiveness of correcting therapy using vitamin D by quantitative ultrasound densitometry to increase the effectiveness of the treatment of patients with dental defects in the background of systemic osteoporosis by dental implantation. Materials and methods: 619 people were examined by quantitative ultrasonic densitometry. The dynamics of changes in bone mineralization was studied with an interval of six months and 1 year. A comparative analysis of the average values of quantitative ultrasonic densitometry was carried out at various times after the installation of dental implants in the control and main groups. Results. Sound velocity values in patients with normal bone mass were (4203,3 ± 7,9). In patients with osteopenia, the rate of ultrasound in bone tissue was 3992,2 ± 3,6 (p < 0.001); in patients with osteoporosis 3802,7 ± 14,9 (p < 0.001). All these parameters were obtained after the use of corrective therapy with vitamin D3. Conclusions. The analysis of the results of quantitative ultrasound densitometry revealed that in the group of patients with osteoporosis, the indicators were reduced by an average of 9.5 % compared with patients with normal bone indicators (p < 0.001).
