ALGORITHM FOR PREDICTING THE PROGRESSION OF ORAL DISEASES IN PATIENTS WITH TUBULOINTERSTITIAL KIDNEY DISEASE

Studies on the dental morbidity of people suffering from chronic kidney disease (CKD) have shown that they are more likely to have pathology of teeth, periodontal and oral mucosa than healthy individuals of the same age group. A particularly unfavorable state of dental health was noted in people suffering from chronic renal failure, regardless of their presence on hemodialysis therapy. It was revealed that individuals suffering from chronic pyelonephritis and chronic glomerulonephritis have differences in the condition of periodontal tissues, compared with practically healthy individuals of the same age group.
