By means of clinical and laboratory methods, the immunological status of unstimulated oral fluid was investigated in children aged 4,5 to 8 after the application of removable orthodontic appliances according to the indices of immunoglobulins (sIgA, IgA, IgG), lactoferrin, lysozyme activity, bactericidal effect of mixed saliva; also the balance coefficient of local immunity factors is calculated. A significant reduction of the protective properties of mixed saliva at a steady stress of the immune system is revealed; the immunostimulating and immune corrective therapy is recommended for normalization of humoral immunity factors during the apparatus treatment with the use of different groups of base materials.
