Zelenskaya, Irina B. Nektarevskaya, Alina V. Sergeeva, Nikolay E. Korovaykin, Svetlana A. Lebedeva

“…Introduction: The combination treatment of patients with dentition problems including endodontic-periodontal lesions (EPL) is known to widely involve anti-inflammatory drugs, including non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents, and antimicrobial drugs, in particular antibiotics and antiseptics, from which the former often lead to the development of gastro- and neuropathy, lesions of kidneys and liver, as well as the cardiovascular system, and the latter, in addition to serious side effects, lead to the development of steady resistance of pathogenic microorganisms and dysbacteriosis. This necessitates search for and development of new molecules with a wide range of therapeutic effects aimed to block the infectious and inflammatory process and to restore the functional ability of teeth in EPLs as much as possible (depending on a lesion severity). …”
