  • Title: [The use of a fluctuating current in the combined therapy of periodontitis].
    Author: Efanov OI, Ushakova GB, Istomin AA.
    Journal: Stomatologiia (Mosk); 1990; (5):33-5. PubMed ID: 2281485.
    Abstract:
    Multiple-modality treatment of 63 patients with periodontitis included removal of dental deposit, curettage, if indicated, followed by fluctuating current treatment. The control group was made up of 25 patients in whom dental deposit was removed and oral hygiene was followed up. The periodontal status was assessed by clinical, functional, and morphologic methods. Liquidation of gingival inflammation, resultant from multiple-modality treatment, was associated with normalization of the regional hemodynamics in periodontal tissues.
