Changes in the trigeminal nerve under the infuence of cortexin in patients with chronic generalized periodontitis

Abstract

<p><em>Purpose: </em>correction of violations in the trigeminal nerve in patients with chronic generalized periodontitis. <em>Material and methods. </em>A clinical examination and study of the functional activity of the trigeminal nerve in 160 patients with chronic generalized periodontitis. <em>Results. </em>Revealed the presence of various degrees of violations of the functional activity of the trigeminal nerve depending on the severity of the pathological process in periodontal tissues. <em>Conclusion.</em>Neuroprotective therapy in the treatment of patients with periodontal disease leads to normalization of the neurophysi-ology of the trigeminal nerve and promotes more rapid relief of the infammatory process in periodontal tissues.</p>
