Currently, the prevalence of dental caries among children and adults reaches 98%. Multifactorial matter of the carious process is proved by numerous studies. Timely detection, prevention and effective treatment of focal demineralization of the enamel helps to prevent the development of defects of hard tissues and caries complications. The purpose of the study is to evaluate the clinical efficiency of combination of medicines for deep fluorination and laser radiation of low-intensity in the prevention of dental caries. The study involved 120 volunteers aged 20-30. 2 groups of patients were formed, each group was divided into 3 subgroups according to the number of medicines used. The evaluation of the clinical efficiency of medicines: «FtorLux» (TekhnoDent); «Triftorid2 (OmegaDent); «Nanofluor» (Vladmiva). In the first group, all patients underwent a course of fluorination of three procedures including the repeated treatment in 2 weeks, in the second group the usage of these drugs was combined with the application of laser radiation of low-intensity by means of the apparatus «Optodan». A study of clinical efficiency was performed including the enamel resistance test, determination of mineralizing potential of oral liquid. The received results indicated the achievement of the remineralizing effect by the application of medicines for deep fluorination in combination with laser radiation of low-intensity. But, in group of patients in which the laser radiation was applied against the background of using various medicines, the test indices of enamel resistance and mineralization ware significantly higher than in the group in which only medicines were used.
