The experience with the application of fluc-tophoresis for the combined treatment of the patients presenting with chronic generalized periodontitis

The objective of the present study was to estimate the possibility of application of the fluctuorization technique for the combined treatment of periodontitis. The study included 40 patients at the age varying from 35 to 65 years presenting with chronic generalized periodontitis of medium severity. The patients were divided into two groups. Those comprising the control group underwent fluctuorization alone while the patients of the study group were treated by the administration of the colegel preparation in combination with sodium alginate, metronidasol, and dimexide into the periodontal pockets followed by fluctuorization. The analysis of the data obtained showed that the use of medicamental fluctuophoresis significantly increases the probability of the favourable outcome of the rehabilitative treatment of the patients presenting with moderately severe chronic generalized periodontitis. Colegel fluctuophoresis allows to obtain much better results of the treatment compared with those in the control patients treated with the use of flucuorization alone.
